Imagine a perfume born amid the whirlwind of events in 1940 — Tailspin by legendary couturier Lucien Lelong is a true olfactory storm captured in an elegant bottle.
Created for bold and romantic women, this fragrance instantly commands attention with its intense trail and multifaceted character.
Lucien Lelong is a name associated with haute couture and impeccable taste.
In 1940, at the height of World War II, the house launched Tailspin, a fragrance that offered hope and recalled the beauty of life.
Like many of Lelong’s creations, Tailspin became a symbol of refinement and resilience.
This masterpiece was created by the great Jean Carles, one of the most influential perfumers of the 20th century.
His artistry is evident in the way he combined floral and green notes to create an accord that is both delicate and daring.
Tailspin is a true whirlwind of emotions, from its first sparkling aldehydes to its deep, lingering base.
This eau de cologne has a very strong sillage — you certainly won’t go unnoticed.
Thanks to its high concentration and the perfumer’s craftsmanship, the fragrance unfolds gradually and lasts for many hours. Ideal for evenings out and special occasions.
If you have fallen for Tailspin, explore related compositions: Balmain Vent Vert, The Body Shop White Musk L'Eau, and Donna Karan Liquid Cashmere Blush.
Each one develops the theme of green florals and sensuality in its own way.

The fragrance is very long-lasting, staying on the skin for 12 hours or more, gradually revealing its notes
The scent will linger in the air even after its wearer has left.
The perfume has a rich aroma that will help you stand out from the crowd and create a memorable image
A fresh and light fragrance with a concentration of fragrant substances up to 5% according to French standards, giving a feeling of purity and coolness
Perfumes for the fall and winter seasons often contain notes of vanilla, spices, ambergris, wood, and other warm accords, creating a feeling of comfort and warmth during the cold months
The composition of Tailspin opens with a vibrant aldehydic-citrus burst, where Cinnamon and Clove intertwine with green Herbal notes and fruity accents.
At its heart, a bouquet of Gardenia, Hyacinth, and Rose blooms, enveloped in the spicy breath of Carnation.
The base unfolds with power and mystery: resinous Galbanum, Patchouli, Sandalwood, and Tobacco create a unique trail that leaves an impression all day long.
