How it unfolds
-
Lavender first
Lavender essence opens with its clear, aromatic, slightly herbal freshness. It gives the rose a cool, sharp frame and takes the sweetness out of the first minutes. The first impression is drier and more composed than floral, a tidy start for a perfume with thorns.
-
The Bulgarian rose
Bulgarian rose absolute fills the heart: deep, rich and a little spicy, a rose with weight rather than petals and dew. It is the centre of the perfume, and the brand's idea of a thorny, sensual character lives here. The lavender stays behind it as a cool thread.
-
Vanilla absolute, quietly
Vanilla absolute rounds off the base, warm and soft, taking the edge off the rose without making it sugary. It gives the scent a smooth finish, and it lets the rose end warm instead of austere. After the dry start and the deep heart, this is the softest part of the perfume.
Wearing it
When, who and why
How to wear it
A rose with this much structure suits evenings and cooler weather, when its dry lavender edge and deep centre have room. Two sprays are enough, since the brand rates the volume as high. It works for dinners, the theatre and occasions where a composed, assertive floral fits.
Who it is for
People who love rose but prefer it dry, deep and slightly severe rather than soft and pink. If lavender and vanilla appeal to you as supporting notes, this is a rose that stands out with only a gentle vanilla finish. It suits confident dressers and formal moments.
Why choose Juliette Has a Gun Lady Vengeance
It comes from the house's first rose perfumes and keeps a clear pyramid in three steps: lavender, Bulgarian rose, vanilla. The brand's idea of a confident, thorny and sensual character shows in the dry lavender edge and the deep rose. A good way to meet the house through its roses.

Questions
Frequently asked
Is Lady Vengeance a sweet rose?
Not especially. Lavender essence gives a dry, aromatic frame, the Bulgarian rose absolute is deep rather than sugary, and vanilla absolute only rounds the end.
When is it best worn?
Evenings and the cooler months suit it best, though a single spray also works for the office. The brand rates its volume as high, so a light hand is wise.
What concentration and size is it?
It is an Eau de Parfum of 100 ml. At that strength the rose keeps its depth and the lavender its clarity.

The store’s selection is really good and comprehensive. Placing an order was very easy, and shipping was really fast. The fragrances were well packed and they were all excellent. I’m very satisfied. 👍💯👍
Very good quality profume, it last long and it has a good price for its incredible aroma and mixes of fruit and wood smell
A cozy, slightly sensual vanilla that feels like warm night air by the sea. Easy to love if you enjoy gourmand perfumes with a soft smoky edge.
This perfume is really well blended, I just removed a star because I personnaly don't like the top note (citronella)
Placing the order was very easy. Shipping was very fast. I am completely satisfied.
Good cologne, love the citrus and ginger scent making it a playful combo while the tea base makes it a bit more mature. Great for the gym
FragranceGems is again really quick with their releases. I hope this one smells better than Too Damn Good. Already rating a 5 star because of previous experiences!!
Already pre-order. As always, FragranceGems is the first with good releases. Looking forward to my bottle!
The cap of the bottle came with a small part of it broken off and the glass pieces were in the box
