Clair de Jour

The hiss of an espresso machine two seconds before the cup arrives, where a blend of fresh citrus and subtle florals creates an understated yet invigorating moment.

The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Lanvin, the French fashion house founded by Jeanne-Marie Lanvin, has always been synonymous with elegance and refinement. This particular fragrance carries forward that legacy, opening with vibrant citrus notes that evoke a crisp morning in Paris. The heart of the composition features soft florals that balance the brightness, while the base notes of amber and musk provide warmth and depth without overpowering the overall freshness.

How to wear it

Apply one to two sprays to your pulse points. The citrus notes are vibrant but fleeting, so allow the fragrance to settle for a few minutes before heading out. This composition is best enjoyed during the day when its fresh character can shine.
