A magnetic iris conjures the ecstasy of love, blending sensuality and lightness.
Passionate love is the most exciting of all games. Oscillating between sensuality and complicity, that delicious tension inspired Master Perfumer Jacques Cavallier Belletrud to create a romantic, mischievous fragrance that becomes one with the skin.
An ode to the iris pallida from Florence, its composition exalts the duality of a precious flower that symbolizes feminine seduction.
The iris insinuates its violet notes into a radiant bouquet of rose and Sambac jasmine, then unfurls the force of its powdery notes within the honeyed accents of acacia flower. Evolving from carnal seduction and an intimate impression, Spell on You has a hypnotic, heady aura, like an unforgettable refrain…

Which Louis Vuitton Perfume is Most Popular?
According to multiple reports online, Contre Moi, Le Jour Se Leve, Afternoon Swim, and Rose des Vents are the most popular perfumes within Louis Vuitton’s collection. In addition, LV’s most recent fragrance, Spell On You, is also highly searched for online.
There’s no telling what perfume is the most sought after among the bunch, but you can take care knowing that these 5 fragrances are regularly included amongst other designer brands.
Are Louis Vuitton Perfumes Worth It?
If you consider yourself an avid fragrance fan, we say that Louis Vuitton is a worthy investment. From Le Jour Se Leve to Afternoon Swim, most LV perfumes are highly regarded as quality collectibles.
The great thing about essences is that you only need a spritz or two to imbue its scent. Fragrances can last forever if you pump out an even amount every time.
Given that Louis Vuitton perfumes can retail as high as $265, we think it’s safe to say that they cater to frequent fragrance users. Unless you’re a full bottle collector, it’s probably best to leave designer essences to fans and loyal customers only.
Which Louis Vuitton Perfumes Are Unisex?
Arguably, perfumes are androgynous. While most fragrances are organized by gender, there’s no stopping you from enjoying a female or male-oriented essence.
With that being said, some blends offer a strong floral scent, while others carry an overwhelming musk aroma. If you want something in the middle, Louis Vuitton does offer unisex options on its website.
Unisex fragrances include On The Beach, Sun Song, Cactus Garden, and Afternoon Swim. These four perfumes offer summery notes of citrus, lemongrass, neroli, and other aromas of the warmer months.
How to Apply Louis Vuitton Perfume?
It’s not just a matter of ‘spritz and walk.’ Arguably, it’s the worst way to apply perfume since it lingers in the worst places. Fragrances should be applied to areas that produce the most body heat. According to sources, it helps to diffuse the scent.
We recommend applying your Louis Vuitton perfume to your inner wrists, décolletage, behind your ears, and at the back of the knee. Yep, take this as a sign to stop spritzing your $100 fragrances directly onto your face and chest.
