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.

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".
