The brief
Annick Ménardo built it around a violet-licorice accord she described as 'a forbidden treat', framed by Mugler-influenced gourmand structure.
NameNamed after the French designer's pseudonym; Lolita Lempicka was the maison's debut fragrance.
The flacon
Frosted-blue apple flacon with a coppery gilded leaf and gold-script lettering — a witchy, fairytale object.
Footnotes
- Won the FiFi Award for Best Bottle Design in 1998; the apple flacon has become a collectible across the resale market.
The Curator's Note
Licorice cherry in a fairytale apple. Improbably, it works.
