Lalique de Lalique 20th Anniversary Chevrefeuille Extrait de Parfum
Crafted by perfumer Sophia Grojsman, this limited anniversary release offers a masterclass in powdery floral complexity. Enthusiasts of classic perfumery will appreciate the jasmine, iris, and cassis notes that rest on a base of white musk and vanilla. It is best suited for formal day wear during fall and spring. While the intricate bottle draws collectors, the juice inside appeals to those who favor rich, vintage-leaning profiles over sugary modern trends. We recommend sampling before purchasing a full bottle.

Fragranxe Review
EDITORIAL“Lalique de Lalique Chevrefeuille Review: A Glorious Powdery Classic”
The opening of Lalique de Lalique Chevrefeuille Extrait de Parfum is immediate and intense. A heavy cloud of dry iris and jasmine hits the nose, sharpened by a distinct note of warm clove. This is not the clean, watery floral common in modern department stores. Instead, it feels thick, textured, and unapologetically classic, demanding your attention right from the start.
As the initial sharpness of the clove softens, the heart emerges on the skin. Cassis and blackberry add a subtle, tart sweetness, though they never make the fragrance fruity or jammy. Pear provides a watery texture that keeps the iris from becoming too chalky. The rose note behaves quietly, hummed in the background behind the dominant white florals.
After two hours, the dry down takes complete control. White musk and vanilla wrap around the remaining iris, creating a rich cosmetic powder effect. Sandalwood grounds the base, adding a smooth woodiness that stops the vanilla from smelling edible. On the skin, the fragrance feels warm, dry, and clean, reminiscent of vintage face powders.
Performance is reliable, as you would expect from an extrait. It projects about arm's length for three hours, then slowly retreats to a personal skin scent. Total longevity reaches around seven hours. This moderate sillage makes it wearable in public, though the heavy powdery texture makes it unsuitable for warm summer days.
This perfume is not for beginners looking for sweet, breezy scents. It is a mature, sophisticated blend that requires a matching attitude. It shines on cool autumn afternoons, paired with structured coats and cashmere. If you dislike heavy powder, you should avoid this completely.
For collectors of Lalique, the gorgeous bottle is reason enough to buy. For perfume enthusiasts, the juice inside offers a beautifully composed floral. We recommend sampling first, as the strong iris and clove accords can be polarizing for those used to modern sugary releases.
