  1. At first, I thought of Master Dominique Ropion with his Iris Shot from Olfactif Studio, followed by that apple note which led me to investigate and discover Alexandra Carlin; her studies in France and her connection with Grasse caught my attention. I bought the perfume because I was captivated by Arpege by Lanvin and decided to own other scents from the house, falling in love with this collection and especially with Les Fleurs de Lanvin. Blue Orchid is delicate, with powdery citrus touches; it is refined, dreamy and versatile. Its floral, fruity, elegant, clean, sweet and captivating character makes it one of the most enjoyable in my collection. Iris is my favourite note for adding elegance and powderiness, even transforming the hardest leather, filling it with a magical halo that here is achieved perfectly. The orchid is also lovely, with a feminine and masculine character that gives all the honour to the name. In the end, the tonka bean returns a delicate, refined and sweet dry-down on the skin; for the price, if anyone complains it is because they want to find fault, and here there is none. Thank you Lanvin and Alexandra Carlin for this masterpiece. Note: I let it rest for three months and its projection and scent changed, turning it into something spectacular. Perfume for everything and everyone: day, night, dinners, weddings, outings…
