I am (as usual) confused: is the part above related to the part below?
As Seb says, ... are active timestamps, [...] are inactive ones and
the agenda does not pay any attention to the latter. No idea what
happens with Google calendar, or any other for that matter.

 I tried specifying that I should be notified 1h in advance for an
 event like this :  2015-03-24 Mon 07:30 -1h but apparently this is
 not the way to do it.
 Is it currently possible to do this and if so, what is the correct
 org-mode timestamp markup for this ?


What notification system are you using? The stuff in appt.el perhaps?
If so, see the docstring of org-agenda-to-appt, in particular the
APPT_WARNTIME property. But in general, the notification settings are
appt-related ones: afaik, you cannot use things like -1h in the
timestamp and have it carry over to the appt settings, although that
might be possible with a small amount of coding.

As written in the docs, inactive timestamps have `[' brackets instead of
`'.
