Lalique’s newest addition to the Noir Premier collection, Plume Blanche 1901, shines like a glowing jewel. The elegance of a white peacock was the inspiration behind the luxurious perfume, and the scent is just as unique and rare as this animal.
How it smells
Lalique Plume Balnche is a floral woody musk unisex fragrance made by Karine Dubreuil. It’s very powdery and seduces with a lot of almond, heliotrope, white wood and musk. A fragrance made to empower its wearer to feel just as proud and beautiful as a peacock.
The bottle
The iconic bottle of the Noir Premier collection is well-known by now. For Plume Blanche 1901, the art nouveau bottle appears to be dipped in gold. At the front, there is the most stunning white peacock feather print, inspired by René Lalique’s illustration for the cover of Montesquiou’s book “Les Paons”. The flanks of the bottle are transparent and adorned with the collection’s cicada-wing motif. I am amazed!
My opinion
For me, Lalique Plume Blanche 1901 was love at first smell, and I already know it’s gonna stay among the very few and selected fragrances I regularly use. I find it very elegant, intriguing and warm. When I was wearing the perfume for the first time, I met a friend. When we hugged, I noticed how fascinated she was by the smell. She immediately noticed I wear a new perfume and was drawn to it a lot. This showed me that I am not the only one who recognizes what a special fragrance I found.
