Lepus

Lepus is bright in the beginning with a blast of Earl Grey bergamot and black tea, but before too long, it softens with a silky milky accord. The milk never sours behind the citrus—instead, it stays frothy and warm, and mellows the astringency of the tea and lavender into a perfectly smooth London Fog scent. Musk and vanilla round everything out with a bit of sweetness and fluffy softness. I can imagine Lepus would be great as a bedtime fragrance, if that’s your thing. It’s beautifully blended, and cuddly all the way through—its lavender and milk evoke the kind of comforting drink you might like before settling into bed under a thick duvet. Other commenters have mentioned its impressive lasting power, and I have to agree. It’ll cling to your clothes (and possibly bedsheets) for quite some time, but it’s not beastly in any way, it’s well-mannered and silky smooth even after a full day’s wear. I really enjoyed wearing it on a chill, rainy day, and I’m interested in seeing how it performs in winter.

so glad this was finally put on here! in terms of piper & perro’s perfumes this is second only to froth. a beautiful homage to a london fog tea ( in my opinion ) lavender-hearted but not heavy on the nose. it’s more earthy sweet, creamy and lactonic from the milk and vanilla notes, really well balanced with the black tea and bergamot to create that semi “earl grey” feeling. except it’s not, this perfume is genuinely unique even though it’s reminiscent of a well known tea and i think it’s wonderful. affordable too, for those who don’t want to splash out on things in the same category as this!! if you like the idea of spending a rainy spring afternoon walking through lavender clouds, or waking up to dewy fog in early autumn, this is for you. to conclude; one of my fav perfumes ever!

Gorgeous black tea scent. The elements are well-balanced. It’s not a gourmand, but there is a slight sweetness. It’s warm like sunlight, slightly floral, and so comforting. It seems more suited to fall, but I think it’s light enough for year round. It lasts a long time on my clothes, days in fact. About 4 hours on my skin.

So glad this was finally added to the fragrantica database because it deserves some praise. This is a lovely lavender-forward London fog: black tea, bergamot, lavender, and creamy vanilla. Smooth, warm and bright at the same time, soothing. Perfect for a rainy day, bedtime, anytime.

Love it! You get an initial burst of zinginess from the bergamot before it dries down into a very milky, lavender tea. Feels like a hug in a bottle. Would recommend!
