Lancôme Poeme
- Authentic original perfume
- Try before the full bottle
- Travel-ready 3ml, 10ml, 30ml
- Long-lasting scent
Poeme by Lancôme is a big, sweet yellow floral with a lot to say. The opening is a crowd of flowers and fruit: datura, Himalayan poppy and narcissus with peach, plum, black currant, mandarin, bergamot and green notes. Mimosa and vanilla flower lead the heart, surrounded by tuberose, ylang-ylang, orange blossom, jasmine, freesia, heliotrope and rose, with a thread of leather. It settles into musk, cedar, vanilla, amber and tonka bean, powdery and warm. Released in 1995, it is mostly worn by women who enjoy a bold, generous perfume. Voters choose it for autumn and winter evenings and nights out. The longevity vote leans eternal and the sillage vote leans strong, so a light hand pays off. A 3ml decant is a smart way to meet it first.

The community verdict
Poeme opens with peach and plum, moves through mimosa and tuberose, then dries down to musk and vanilla. Longevity divides between long-lasting and exceptionally long-lasting; projection splits between strong and room-filling. It suits elegant evenings out in autumn and nights in winter, but go light if you prefer a softer touch.

How it wears

When to wear it
