Launched by the design house of Lanvin in 1927, ARPEGE is classified as a luxurious, gentle, floral fragrance. This feminine scent possesses a blend of high powdery floral notes combining honeysuckle, jasmine, roses and orange blossoms, a rich combination with lower accents of vanilla and sandalwood. It is recommended for romantic wear.
History and Background of Lanvin:
Founded in 1889 at 22, Rue du Faubourg Saint Honoré by Jeanne Lanvin (Paris 1867 - 1946), Lanvin is the oldest Parisian fashion house.
From Haute couture (1909) to men's fashion (1926), decoration (1920), and perfumes ("My Sin" in 1925, "Arpège" 1927), the young milliner became the Ambassador of French elegance; transforming her hat and clothing workshops into a veritable fashion empire.
Jeanne Lanvin drew inspiration from her only child; Marguerite (later known as Marie-Blanche de Polignac, a talented opera singer). Marguerite succeeded her mother in 1946 and remained in charge until her death in 1958.
The delicately gilded figure on the spherical Arpège perfume bottle depicting Jeanne Lanvin and her daughter going to a ball has remained the symbol of this motherly love. It became the House logo in 1954.
The Lanvin blue came to life through Madame's spontaneous enthusiasm for a Fra Angelico painting. Along with the motifs created by Armand-Albert Rateau, Jeanne Lanvin's decorator and partner, Lanvin created a distinctive image which remains to this day.
Jeanne Lanvin's successors include Antonio del Castillo, Dominique Morlotti, Jules-Fran?ois Crahay, Maryll Lanvin, Claude Montana and Patrick Lavoix. Their work has successfully immortalized a very Parisian, elegant couture style.
Since 1993, the House has focused on luxury ready-to-wear and accessories as well as perfumes.
