Oh, Lola! The perfume with a heart of peonies

Perfumers Calice Becker and Yann Vasnier talk about the fragrance that leaves you glowing all day

Want to enjoy the cheerful charms of the peony all day? Wear Oh, Lola! by Marc Jacobs, in which peonies play the leading role. Oh, Lola! is the younger sister of Lola, a perfume Marc Jacobs released previously. Oh, Lola! is a touch fresher, more floral, and more lively. Oh, la la...!

The perfume was created by the well-known fragrance designer Ann Gottlieb and perfumers Calice Becker and Yann Vasnier. Calice and Yann are keen to tell you more about their inspiration for and vision of Oh, Lola!.

Where did your inspiration to make this perfume come from?

“We were naturally inspired by the original, Lola. But during the creation of Oh, Lola! our focus was heavily on the youthfulness and flirtatiousness of fresh petals.”

What is the precise composition of the perfume?

“Oh, Lola! is pure femininity thanks to the delicate pink peonies and the creamy vanilla base. The top notes of the fragrance feature wild strawberries, pear and raspberry. The heart consists of peonies, magnolia cyclamen. And the base notes comprise vanilla, sandalwood and tonka bean. The sweet eruption of wild red fruit means that Oh, Lola! smells great from the start. It is flirty, sparkling, fruity and floral. It livens up every occasion.”

Why have you opted for the pink peony when creating Oh, Lola!?

“The pink peony has the same intensity as the white peony. However, the pink cultivar contains more geraniol. This essential oil means that the red peonies have a more defined fragrance.”

What experience do you hope to evoke with this perfume?

“Oh, Lola! is the lighter, more accessible variant of the original Lola fragrance. The clear packaging immediately projects a sort of airy flirtatiousness. Oh, Lola! is a vibrant personality that can be worn every day.”

What sort of woman suits  this perfume?

“The type of woman that we had in mind for this fragrance is easy to get along with, young, trendy, creative and colourful. She has a lot of energy and natural radiance. She always has a flirtatious dimple on her cheek, because she smiles all day long. That's the type of woman who will love this fragrance!”

Are you that type of woman? Try Oh, Lola! for yourself. You could adore it for the beautiful bottle alone...
