Review of Arpege by Margaret B. O'keeffe




I have been wearing Arpege since 1949. I love it. Everyone seems to like it (men and women). It is hard to find. I use to get it from St. Thomas Island but they stopped carrying it. Your price is the most reasonable of all the places that still carry it, which are very few. I can get it at a shopping center near me but it would cost me an arm and a leg! I hope you never stop carrying it, it's the only perfume I wear. I will continue wearing it as long as I live if I can get it.

Review of Arpege by Donna W.




Arpege is a classic fragrance and I am so glad that it's available at Perfume.com. In the past, I've been limited to purchasing Arpege on overseas trips, often disappointed at limited selections.

Review of Arpege by Denise Malinowski




This is a classy favorite from years ago. It was my Mom's favorite and soon became mine. Everytime I wear it people tell me how beautiful I smell.

Review of Arpege by Judith




A sophisticated, luxurious scent that evokes images of the epitome of feminine elegance and style, the whisper of fine silk in motion, opulence of cashmere and magnificent furs. Not a summer fragrance, but the ultimate in glamour for a woman with class in colder weather. I was given my first bottle of Arpege at my sweet sixteen by a young man who must have broken the bank to buy it for me. This was Vogue, my ideal, come to life! I have cherished the memory of that day, and Arpege, for more decades than I'm willing to admit to here...

Review of Arpege by Erica Cook




Beautiful! Terrifically high-pitched aldehydic floral with a top note that's decidedly lemony without being fruity or tart. It stays spicey and fresh (but never soapy) the whole way through, and like many expertly blended aldehydic fragrances, it seems to mimic natural smells without smelling like anything recognizable in nature. It's a true creation, an artist's rendering of a dry garden in the hot sun.

Review of Arpege by Elizabeth Adcox




My Mother wears this fragrance, so I have always loved it and I wear it to this day. An absolute classic, beautifully blended floral with bottom notes of warm musk, sandawood, patchouli, and vanilla. Softly sweet, delicately powder scent that can be worn any time of the year. Long lasting, fading softly without losing any of the delicate scent. Too bad they no longer produce My Sin, as this was also another favorite if mine. I have had a flacon of this since I was a teenager, and will always have it in my collection.

Review of Arpege by Ann Hall




Perfume.com is has so many choices in fragrances and it is an easy website to navigate. Best of all they carry my favorite perfume, I had thought that once I was out of my Arpage I would not find it in the states again, I was so happy to discover that Perfume.com sold the EDP spray.

Review of Arpege by Free Gracer




Lanvin’s Arpege is one of the Holy Grails of the perfume world. This fragrance immediately diffuses from the skin because of its aldehydic nature. These aldehydes provide Arpege with its famous “ping.” Andre Fraysse, the “nose” who designed Arpege in 1927, formulated it to have a classical structure: the perfume is a harmonious symphony composed of more than 60 precious essences and with distinct movements evident throughout. The Arpege we have today differs in some degree from the original. However, the House of Lanvin took great pains to respect Andre Fraysse’s original formula, and this reformulated version (rolled out in 1993) is as good as, if not better, than the original. Too often a reformulated fragrance is cheapened and dumbed down; happily, that was not the case with Arpege. Arpege opens with a lovely overture of bergamot, neroli, honeysuckle, aldehydes, orange blossom and peach. The heart notes of jasmine, lily of the valley, rose, ylang-ylang, coriander, clove, geranium, mimosa, orris and tuberose come to the fore and perform there for some time until the warm closing movement of patchouli, musk, sandalwood, vetiver, vanilla, benzoin and styrax provide the final spicy notes which undergird the fragrance’s rich and elegant finale. Arpege is housed in the famous Lanvin boule; the parfum is in the famous boule noir, while the EdT and EdP are housed in the clear boule; both bottles are decorated by the House’s famous logo of mother and child getting ready for a ball. The mother and child are, of course, Jeanne Lanvin herself and her beloved daughter Marie-Blanche. The logo was inspired by a photograph taken in 1907 and is still used as Lanvin’s logo to this day. Arpege is a grand parfum, designed with the elegant woman of any age in mind. It is classicism at its finest. Arpege is all class, all elegance, all Woman. What the Muses on Mount Olympus wore.
