L'Occitane en Provence's Lavande de Haute-Provence Eau de Cologne |
Discover how well lavender blooms among a fruit orchard is my first thought of how I would describe L'Occitane en Provence's Lavande de Haute-Provence Eau de Cologne. Unlike the original, the reformulated version of this unisex fragrance gained a light, appealing freshness and added femininity with the way the floral, fruits, and woody-musk notes play together.
With
top notes of lavender, bergamot, and peach, Lavande opens like blossoms
awakening to the sun. You can almost smell the combined nectars of those
ripe fruits and lavender in the air, naturally brightening the sweetness.
The effect is a new softness to the lavender, a delicate transparency that is
serenely beautiful.
Once
the freesia and marigold emerge in the heart, there is romance blooming as well
in this updated blend.
The
fragrance is so inviting and comfortable. At the same time, Lavande
is also surprisingly sophisticated just as it is dreamy due to the woods and
musk in the base notes. This is an incredibly easy to wear fragrance
that will lift your spirits with untold joy and happy expectations.
Honestly,
I thought the original was a bit too masculine smelling and heavy on the lavender. On the other hand,
Lavande de Haute-Provence is what I consider an escape to a perfect and
blissful summer day where you don't have a care in the world with how peaceful
you feel wearing this lavender fragrance. I simply adore it!
The
Lavande de Haute-Provence Eau de Cologne retails for $52 for a huge
10.1 fl. oz. bottle. Also available is an organic body care lotion,
massage gel, hand cream, aromatic scented candle, and shower gel in the
collection.
