Attrape-Reves is the most distinctive thing Louis Vuitton makes, cocoa treated as something weightless rather than as chocolate. The travel case is how you carry a fragrance like that: it stays sealed in a bag, it survives being thrown around, and you are never caught without it when an evening turns into a long one.
Why you will love this travel spray
The travel case is a better object than it needs to be. The outer shell is leather-trimmed and weighted, the sprays click in and out without fuss, and because you only ever open one at a time the remaining three stay perfectly sealed. Buy the case once, buy refills after that, and you have a fragrance that travels properly.
- The full Attrape-Reves: airy cocoa over peony and ylang
- Warm and intimate, which makes it worth having for the evening
- Four 7.5ml sprays, 30ml in total, in a refillable leather-trimmed case
- Refills are sold separately, so the case is bought once and kept
- Under the 100ml cabin limit, so it travels in hand luggage
- Each spray lasts roughly a week of normal use
- The same juice as the full bottle, not a lighter version
The scent
A blush of fruit and flower at the opening, peony most obviously, soft and faintly powdery. Cocoa arrives underneath within the first half hour and changes the temperature of the fragrance without weighing it down. Ylang adds creaminess through the middle. The base is soft, skin-close and faintly sweet.
Who it is for
Women who already own the bottle and want it in a handbag, and anyone who likes the idea of changing fragrance between the office and the evening. It is also the most giftable travel spray in the range, because the fragrance itself is unusual enough to feel like a considered choice.
How to use it
Twist the case open and pull out one spray at a time; the other three stay sealed until you need them. Two sprays on the pulse points is the right dose. When a spray is empty, slide it out and drop in a refill rather than replacing the case.
