Strong, leaning towards wild. Yet absolutely original, dry and stylish. If you get used to applying just a tiny dab, the result is stunning and mysterious.
Alongside Miss Charming, the masterpiece by genius Francis Kurkdjian, this was Juliette Has a Gun’s debut and has since become a classic. At first, I thought it was a simple blend of rose and patchouli, but over time I discovered musky, powdery, and woody nuances, with a dirty edge that makes it feel real, green, and earthy, connecting with that enigmatic vegetal note that has always captivated me. Sometimes the rose is so real you almost feel the prick of the thorns! It bears a striking resemblance to Voleur de Roses by L’Artisan Parfumeur (and smells just as expensive), though it is less fruity and oriental. These are opulent, ‘mature’ roses; nothing of brides or cleanliness, but fresh and wild as Sisiruperte says. It is fascinating: sometimes delicate, other times wild with the audacity of its name, sensual and dark, almost gothic. Of all the roses from this house, I keep this one and Midnight Oud, the most deadly weapons of the passionate Juliet.

Sweet, innocent girls, stay away from Lady Vengeance. This fragrance is for strong, tough women who wear leather and listen to hard rock. Upon testing it, I was reminded of Gaultier’s ‘Ma Dame Eau de parfum’. Roses with patchouli, specifically black roses and dirty patchouli. Granted, Gaultier’s is (or was) a beast in performance, but JHAG does not fall short: you must apply very little to flood your surroundings. The clearest difference lies in the base: here it is powdery, whereas Ma Dame was metallic. One thing left me confused: I was told it smelled wonderful, but that my perfume had a vintage touch. The thing is, it is true, and I don’t know what to attribute it to. I like it for going out at night, dressed in black, with some heels and a burgundy lipstick. I do not see it for everyday wear.

Speaking of vengeance… Smelling like this can only be the theoretical vengeance plan that went through many mental loops but, controlled by laziness, was never carried out. I recall that in the 80s my grandmother had a friend, a woman of strong constitution who conveyed emotional equilibrium, lower-middle bourgeois opulence, comfort, and good manners. She smelled just like ‘Lady Vengeance’. This perfume infects me with well-being and satisfied indifference. Where is the rush of conspiracy, the blind fanatical passion that would torment the avenger? Perhaps they are hidden in the Bulgarian rose, Moroccan rose (the most peaceful of all ‘Moors’), lavender, vanilla, or the ‘wicked’ bergamot. What a laugh! When the perfume relaxes, it suggests the Des Merveilles line from Hermès more than the sillage of a men’s cologne from the 70s-80s.
Of vengeance… Smelling like this fits only the theoretical plan of a vengeance that went through many mental loops but, controlled by laziness, was never carried out. I remember in the 80s my grandmother had a friend, a strong woman who radiated balance, bourgeois opulence, comfort and good manners. She smelled exactly like Lady Vengeance. It instils in me a sense of wellbeing and satiated indifference. Where is the conspiratorial buzz, the fanatical passion that would torment the avenger? Perhaps it hides in the scent of Bulgarian rose, Moroccan rose (the most peaceful of the ‘Moors’), lavender, vanilla or the ‘wicked’ bergamot. What a laugh! When the perfume relaxes, it suggests to me the line Des Merveilles by Hermès plus the trail of a men’s cologne from the 70s-80s.
I love this perfume. No one smells like Narciso Rodríguez for Her.
With this Romano Ricci fragrance, created by Francis Kurkdjian, they aim to portray a woman who leaves a rich and sophisticated trail, undeniably feminine, confident, and divinely sensual. From my point of view, they succeed, although it’s not especially original, very sexy, or eye-catching. Lady Vengeance isn’t for evening wear, but perfect for the workplace or business meetings. Its name evokes something bolder for me, but it isn’t for me. It smells floral, modernised rose, dusty, elegant, discreet, slightly sweet, clean, not at all strident, and very respectful of others. At the heart, patchouli stands out; it reminds me of Perles de Lalique, though the latter is less discreet (but I like it more due to my addiction to fragrances with presence). As with other fragrances from this house, to get a good trail, you must apply generously; doing so, the longevity on skin is very good, around 9-10 hours, perfect for a workday. I’ve liked it for daily office use. Although this brand usually doesn’t catch my attention here creatively, I consider that if I find it at designer price rather than niche (as on Notino), I could include it in my collection for work.

With this Romano Ricci fragrance, perfumed by Francis Kurkdjian, they aim to portray ‘a woman who leaves a rich and sophisticated trail, an undeniably feminine woman, confident and divinely sensual’. From my point of view, they succeed, even if it is not an especially original composition nor one that leans towards the sexy or the flashy. Lady Vengeance is not, for me, a fragrance to wear at night, but a perfect perfume for a work environment or a business meeting. Its name certainly evokes a much bolder and cheekier scent for me, but it is not that. It smells floral to me, dominated by a modernised, powdery, elegant, discreet, slightly sweet, clean rose; certainly nothing strident and very respectful of other people sharing our space. In the background, patchouli stands out greatly, so it reminds me of Perles de Lalique, although the latter feels less discreet to me (but I generally like it more given my addiction to fragrances with a strong presence). As with other perfumes from this house, to achieve a good trail I must apply generously, but doing so, its longevity on my skin is very good, around 9-10 hours, perfect for a workday. It is a fragrance I have liked for daily office use. Although this brand usually does not catch my attention in its proposals and has not done so creatively with this one either, I consider it a perfume that, if I find it at designer price rather than niche price (as I have seen on Notino, for example), I could include in my collection with the intention of using it in a work environment.

My favourite from this house so far. Dark, dusty roses, a femme fatale aroma, when you want to feel sexy and powerful. I recommend it for the evening and in cold weather, which is when it develops best. On me, it has good longevity, and I keep it like gold dust due to its high cost.
They say Iso E Super comes and goes, but in my case, it just goes. I have this perfume that cost me 120 euros in-store and it lasts as long as a yawn. A pity.
What a bloody wonder. Dusty roses with great presence and character. A spectacle.
It’s super attractive and delicious! Its character is refined without being pretentious. It’s gorgeous and very personal. I bought it blind because it’s not well known or found in perfumeries in Argentina; I got lucky, and it was a good reward for the risk. What a pity it’s no longer available and I won’t be able to restock it.
If I think of a perfume called ‘Lady Vengeance’, I imagine deep roses, earthy patchouli, an animalic musky touch, and a spicy opening like pink pepper. It should last forever because vengeance is served cold, but when you smell it, you can’t take it off. In reality, it opens with sweet, clean roses, almost like Narciso Rodríguez without the peach, then settles into dusty rose. The patchouli is minimal and clean. It smells good and feminine, ideal for mild days, but calling it Lady Vengeance is misleading; there’s not a trace of cold anger. And it lasts less than four hours! JHAG needs a better copywriter. After saving my hopes, I’ll have to look for a substitute for Midnight Poison. Pleasant: 6/10 Interesting: 3/10 Versatile: 7/10 Original: 3/10
I love it; it smells of dusty roses, subtle yet deep. Wearing it brings me peace and sets it apart from the ordinary; it’s certainly not for teenagers. It’s not light on the skin, but as it doesn’t project much, it doesn’t bother anyone, simply being present. It is the best from this house alongside Another Oud, without a doubt.
I can’t stand this perfume on its own. And look, I’m fascinated by the smell of roses, but it has a note that grates on me. That said, layering it with Not a Perfume Superdose… absolute magic. When the ambroxan molecule impregnates the roses, the powdery touch becomes even more present, and for me, this combination turns a fragrance I repel into one I’m fascinated by. Of course, every nose is a world; but I don’t recommend buying it blindly. When I finish mine, I won’t repeat Lady Vengeance. I could never be without the Not a Perfume.

Nah, nah, nah, this is definitely not for me. Apart from giving me a sense of familiarity, it has a vintage aftertaste that makes me scrunch my nose. The opening is a sour blast that nearly turns me grey. It then settles to give way to those powdery notes, which… well, not really. I feel for its fans, but this Lady Vengeance transmits to me a Sunday afternoon slump; it feels 90s and old-fashioned, but in a bad way. Its occasional sharp little explosions that I can’t pinpoint remind me of a tasteless iceberg salad with a splash of grape vinegar. From time to time, a dying flash escapes, which my synesthesia makes me see as a gloomy violet, from a dusty rose that wants to tell me: ‘look at me, I’m not so bad’, but there’s no way. I’ve already run off to Juliette, see you later!
Nah, nah, nah, this is not for me, not at all. Apart from feeling familiar, it has a vintage aftertaste that makes me scrunch my nose. The opening is a vinegar-heavy blast that almost turns me grey. It settles down to give way to those talcs, which… well, not great either. I feel sorry for its fans, but this Lady Vengeance gives me a Sunday blues vibe, feels 90s and dated in a bad way. Its sour mini-explosions remind me of a bland iceberg salad with a splash of vinegar. Occasionally, a dying flash escapes that synesthesia makes me see as violet and moody, from a talc-dusted rose trying to tell me: ‘look at me, I’m not so bad’, but there’s no way. I’ve already run away, Juliette, see you later!
I expected a rock and roll, dark fragrance, and it turns out JHAG is playing me again with its ‘ambroxan with stuff’. The rose-ambroxan-ISO E-patchouli combination results in a cold, musty church crypt, a sad funeral and bunches of withered flowers. Fortunately, it doesn’t last long; the longevity is minimal (the only thing remaining after a couple of hours is the insufferable ambroxan, with no trace of the roses), and hardly anyone will notice you’re wearing it. Definitely, JHAG is not remotely my favourite perfume house.

The rose-ambroxan-Iso E-patchouli combination results in a cold, mouldy church crypt, a gloomy funeral, and bunches of withered flowers.

Definitely, JHAG is not my favourite perfume house.
If you don’t like the patchouli note, this won’t be your perfume. I love it. It’s for evening wear. Not suitable for women who want to be like little girls.
If you don’t like patchouli, this isn’t for you. I absolutely love it; it’s ideal for evening wear. It’s certainly not for women who want to smell like children.
If you want to know what Dior’s Gris smells like, this is your option. I have a mini of Gris and when I heard Lady Vengeance, it reminded me 90% of that one.
Smells like my grandmother in the 90s selling Avon. Out of everything I’ve tried, this is the most distinct because ambroxan doesn’t dominate. It smells of talcum powder and roses, with Ylang Ylang notes making it overly sweet and cloying, like a refined lady; it reminds me of Gitana Passion. It lasts several hours and is a bit intrusive, though it softens with time. The projection is moderate, but the trail when walking is potent. Definitely not for me, luckily I only have a sample.
Smells like my 90s grandma selling Avon. I’ve tried many from the brand and this is the most different because the ambroxan isn’t as dominant. It smells of talc, roses, and I detect Ylang Ylang notes… the result is too sweet and cloying, of a refined lady, reminding me of Avon’s Pasion Gitana. It lasts several hours and is a bit invasive. Although it softens over time, the projection is moderate but the trail is powerful. Definitely not for me, luckily I only have a sample.
This definitely won’t be my perfume… at first I couldn’t help sneezing for a while. Then that strong, vintage rose scent, which as a girl I thought was my grandmother’s perfume. Once it dries down, it leaves a lovely skin scent, but let’s say I’m not choosing a perfume for that.

Lady Vengeance is pure conceptual art. To understand it, you must watch the 2005 film ‘Lady Vengeance’ by Park Chan-wook. The protagonist is the inspiration. Francis Kurkdjian knew exactly what he was doing when creating this jewel. It smells like a woman who has lived enough to descend into hell and return to take revenge. It’s not for ‘girly’ or sweet girls. It’s for those who know that red lipstick and this perfume are the perfect complement to their personality. It’s not about pretending to be a diva, but BEING one. You may like it or not, but it is indisputable: it is a piece of cinema made into a perfume.
Lady of Vengeance: Juliet has a weapon. A suggestive name taking the Shakespearean character and the pistol as a metaphor for empowerment. Nina Ricci’s grandson takes a risk with this line, backed by Francis Kurkdjian. It returns with that signature rose and white musk accord, but here the rose is doubly the protagonist—faceted and spicy. Rumours suggest it was inspired by Park Chan-wook’s film ‘Lady Vengeance’, a powerful and mysterious woman dispensing justice. The perfume opens with sweet bergamot, then gets stained with earthy patchouli and the rose with its thorns. Ambroxan adds a deep, subtle animal touch, while Iso E Super keeps that silky texture without sinking into total darkness. High quality, an interesting blend with its own identity. Excellent projection and longevity.
A perfume that says a resounding ‘YES’—flawless, characterful, and full of personality. I wore it to my wedding and it lasted over 10 hours on the skin. It’s not for everyone; you need to know how to wear it. Some say the rose and lavender notes make it smell like ‘grandma’, but to me, it adds a touch of class. It starts fresh and clean floral, then evolves into something darker, like incense, earth, and sandalwood. A dark aura that only complements those with strong personalities. Smart buy, 10/10.
