Product Overview
Evoking the majestic trail of Venice’s Grand Canal, Laguna Verde I reveals a sculptural and bold accord where the vibrant freshness of violet leaf opens onto a powdery iris heart, before settling into the woody depth of papyrus. Chiseled and balanced, it captivates with its timelessness, leaving behind an intense sillage imbued with confident character and sophisticated elegance. Presented in a bottle adorned with a hand-blown Murano glass mask, topped with a hand-stitched Italian leather cap, Laguna Verde I is a true masterpiece. Valmont places it in the floral woody aromatic family.

Safety Information
For external use only. This is an alcohol-based fragrance: spray onto the skin from a short distance, never towards the face or eyes, and rinse with clean water on accidental contact with the eyes. If your skin is easily upset, apply a small amount to the inner arm first and leave it a day before wearing it more widely. Discontinue use if irritation occurs. Keep the bottle upright, away from heat, open flame and direct sunlight, and store out of reach of children.
Not recommended for:
- Spraying near the eyes, onto the face, or onto broken or irritated skin.
- Delicate fabrics and porous jewellery such as silk and pearls, which fragrance can stain or dull — spray before dressing and let it dry.
- Skin going straight into strong sunlight, as fragrance worn on exposed skin can react in the sun.
- Anyone with a known sensitivity to fragrance components such as hydroxycitronellal, benzyl benzoate, cinnamyl alcohol or hexyl cinnamal.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does it smell like?
Valmont places it in the floral woody aromatic family: a vibrant, green violet leaf opening, a powdery iris heart, and the woody depth of papyrus as it settles.
How far does it travel and how long does it last?
Valmont describes an intense sillage. It is an extrait de parfum, the most concentrated form, so one or two sprays on pulse points is usually enough for the day.
Who does it suit?
Anyone drawn to green, powdery and woody notes rather than sweet or gourmand ones. The composition is described as sculptural and balanced, and it reads as unisex rather than obviously feminine or masculine.
How does it differ from Alessandrite I?
Alessandrite I is an aldehydic floral built on bergamot and jasmine, brighter and more classically floral. Laguna Verde I is the greener, drier composition, carried by iris and papyrus.
What is the bottle like?
The bottle is adorned with a hand-blown Murano glass mask and topped with a hand-stitched Italian leather cap, so it is made to be kept on display rather than in a drawer.
