Lolita Lempicka
A unique visual signature based on accords, character, and seasonality
The Sichuan pepper electrifies the Italian mandarin into something almost savoury, creating an immediate sensory buzz—bright, spiced, and vaguely numbing on the membranes. You're catching a whiff of someone's aperitif hour, sharp and sophisticated.
Peppermint and juniper berry take command, draining away the citrus sweetness and replacing it with herbaceous, gin-like dryness. The fragrance becomes decidedly green and cooling, almost minty on the breath, shifting from fruity brightness into a contemplative botanical groove that feels grounded and structural.
Bourbon vanilla emerges softly, adding a whisper of creamy sweetness and subtle musk that prevents the fragrance from drying down into austere oblivion. The composition settles into a gentle herbal-vanilla hum, retaining just enough green shimmer to feel sophisticated rather than purely comforting.
Lempicka Green Lover arrives as a surprisingly sophisticated collision between a farmer's market and a botanical apothecary. The Italian mandarin orange doesn't announce itself with typical citrus sweetness; instead, it arrives tinged with the numbing tingle of Sichuan pepper, creating an almost savoury opening that feels simultaneously juicy and peppery—as though you've bitten into citrus zest whilst sucking on a numbing spice. This is where the fragrance stakes its claim: it refuses the obvious path of fruity brightness.
As the composition settles, the peppermint and juniper berry transform the narrative into something herbaceous and distinctly green—not the fresh-cut grass greenness of synthetic iso E super, but rather a living greenness, almost medicinal. The juniper particularly anchors the heart, lending a gin-like dryness that plays beautifully against the cool menthol whisper of peppermint. This phase reveals the fingerprints of perfumer Maïa Lernout's craft: the restraint to keep the composition lean and architectural rather than lush.
