Launched in 1964 by Lanvin, Monsieur Lanvin is a chypre fragrance that embodies the elegance and sophistication of its French heritage. The composition opens with green leaves and citrus notes — bergamot and lemon — creating an immediate sense of freshness. This bright start gives way to a heart of clary sage, carnation, jasmine, and rose, adding layers of floral complexity. The base notes of sandalwood, cedar, civet, musk, oakmoss, labdanum, leather, tonka bean, vanilla, and myrrh weave together an intricate blend of warmth and depth that is both animalic and woody.

Application Tips
This fragrance develops best close to skin, so apply it directly to pulse points. The citrus top notes dissipate quickly, giving way to a rich base that blooms over several hours. It's ideal for cooler evenings when you want a scent that is both warm and enduring.
