Lavande Eau de Cologne

I'm a man and although this scent is soft, a man can wear this when he wants to feel refreshed and clean. I smelled this yesterday at a L'Occitane boutique while on vacation and it is a GORGEOUS scent. This is perfect for after shower use; it's refreshing, uplifting, and at the same time very calming, therapeutic. And yes I bought it and now use it often!

Sad this is discontinued. I have a small amount left that I inherited from my Granny. I’ve stoped using it because I want to be able to smell my granny again.

I absolutely love this scent. I mostly use as a linen spray and sometimes as a perfume.

This is just straight up soothing lavender. I love lavender. I am a very high strung, anxious personality type and I find lavender very therapeutic. Many people say that lavender is an 'old lady' scent- something which really irritates me, and should be banned from fragrantica because it is both offensive and means absolutely nothing (I'm 22 so this rant isn't because I am offended or anything). Lavender smells incredibly natural to me, and is never cloying. L'Occitane's interpretation is the best because it gives you a subtle, calming lavender freshness, and the citrus brings out the best qualities of lavender. Lavender and citrus truly go hand in hand and I would not have it any other way. This is good to wear when you're ill or feeling a bit stressed and don't want to be irritated by any perfumes. Sillage and longevity not great, but you wouldn't want it to be anyway because lavender is more therapeutic as opposed to a pretty or sexy fragrance you would want to wow someone with or share with those around you. This is excellent value for money as well, it costs $36NZD, and is made with organic lavender oils so it's a product you can really trust. Lovely luxury brand.

I wish I sprayed it on my skin and not on my clothes before making a decision....on my skin this is not a lavender scent at all, it is more citrus than anything else. It actually reminds me of their Verveine (which smells like lemons with sugar to me). The Lavender eau de cologne is sweet, fresh, uplifting. I don't find any typical soothing lavender characteristics here at all, actually quiet the opposite, but maybe because on my skin the citrus overpowers the lavender. And it smells nothing close to the lavender pure essential oil, if that's what you are looking for. As others have mentioned, the scent barely lasts, you really have to use it almost as a body spray, or add a few spritzes directly on your clothes. It would be perfect on a hot humid day, when you just want to feel fresh and not "heavy" with perfume. Unisex for sure, very pleasant, cozy, natural. Oh yes, I will be enjoying it.
