L'Occitane Eau de Cologne Lavande (2011) {New Fragrance}

 

lavande_eau_de_cologne.jpegJust towards the end of August 2011, L'Occitane en Provence launched a new fragrance in the Eau-de-Cologne genre called Eau de Cologne Lavande. While one can find extremely cheap lavender colognes in supermarket aisles, the L'Occitane offering presents itself as a more upmarket version of that simple scent, especially in the European price range...

 

Yes, there is apparently a price war going on because in France the Eau de Cologne Lavande is priced at 45€ (= $64), while in the US, it is available for $35 (= 24,29€.)

The jus is composed with notes of citruses and a woody-musky finish. The impression of lavender it gives is that of oxygenated lavender.

"Brightened by the radiant freshness of citrus fruits, the Lavender Eau de Cologne has a light, breezy scent, underlined by a woody, musky base with a captivating trail.

This vibrant Cologne is a celebration of summer that captures the sunshine and brightness of Haute-Provence."

Official notes are:

Top Notes: POD Lavender, Bergamot, Peach
Middle Notes: Freesia, Marigold
Base Notes: Benzoin, Musk

The 300 ml bottle can be used either as a splash and spray flacon (after having virtually disappeared, there is a return to splash bottles in some quarters.)
