Météore

Météore, inspired by Louis Vuitton Météore (2020)

Météore opens on Sicilian mandarin, which Louis Vuitton describes as sizzling and spicy rather than sweet. Sichuan pepper, part of what the brand calls a trio of peppers, adds a tingling, almost electric edge, while lavender brings a clean aromatic tone. Vetiver, a grass root with an earthy, slightly smoky smell, carries it down to a finish the brand calls fresh, earthy and ambery.

About the original

Louis Vuitton launched Météore on 28 August 2020 as the sixth men's fragrance in Les Parfums Louis Vuitton, composed by master perfumer Jacques Cavallier Belletrud. The brand says he chose Sicilian mandarin for its energy and uses Java vetiver as the scent's signature. It is sold only through Louis Vuitton stores and the brand's website, where the bottle can be refilled in store. Louis Vuitton does not state a concentration on its product page.

Our version

Ours is an independent eau de parfum made to evoke the same character. It is not Louis Vuitton stock, not an official relaunch and not the original formula.

Who it suits

Men who like citrus but want more bite from pepper and a dry vetiver base are the obvious fit. It reads fresh and spicy rather than sweet. Buyers wanting a gourmand or a heavy amber will find it too dry.
