About Louis Vuitton Meteore
Louis Vuitton Meteore is a 2020 men's fragrance by Jacques Cavallier, and it is one of the fresher, more wearable things in the house's line-up.
It opens sharp and bright: bergamot, mandarin and grapefruit, with ginger and pepper giving it a bite that stops it reading as a plain citrus. Juniper adds a dry, gin-like edge. Underneath, iris and sandalwood keep it smooth rather than fizzy.
What makes it work is that the spice never takes over. Plenty of fresh-spicy fragrances turn harsh after twenty minutes. This one settles into something soft and slightly powdery, and stays polite.
Performance is moderate. It projects well for the first couple of hours and then sits close, which suits a daytime or office fragrance more than a night out.
The price is the sticking point, as with everything Louis Vuitton, and it is not sold anywhere but their own boutiques. That combination — widely admired, expensive, hard to buy — is exactly what draws the clone houses.
