Lú Lei
Fragrance notes
Character
Lú Lei opens with a bright spray of Italian mandarin and Calabrian bergamot that feels like walking past a fruit stall on a warm morning. Black currant and grapefruit add a tart edge, while lemon blossom lifts the top with a clean floral air. The heart brings raspberry and apple, softened by peony and violet, so the fruit never turns heavy. It stays fresh and transparent, more like juice on skin than syrup in a glass. The powdery facet comes from violet and peony, giving the middle a gentle haze that keeps the sweetness in check.
The base settles into vanilla and benzoin, supported by sandalwood and white musk, with patchouli and amber adding a faint resinous warmth. It feels polished and modern, sitting between a daytime fruity floral and a creamier evening skin scent. The composition is smooth rather than sharp, with the citrus and fruit carried through by the woody, powdery foundation. It suits someone who enjoys a cheerful opening that slowly turns soft and slightly gourmand without losing its fresh start. The mood is upbeat and easy, perfect for a sunny street or a garden table in mild weather. The sandalwood and vanilla wrap the fruit in a calm finish that lingers as a warm, powdery vanilla.
