About
Heritage Eau de Toilette by Guerlain is a Woody Spicy fragrance for men. Heritage Eau de Toilette was launched in 1992. The nose behind this fragrance is Jean-Paul Guerlain. Top notes are Lavender, Aldehydes, Juniper Berries, Clary Sage, Bergamot, Lemon, Violet, Green Notes and Petitgrain; middle notes are Patchouli, Coriander, Geranium, Pepper, Rose, Carnation, Balsam Fir, Pink Pepper, Orris Root, Jasmine, Cyclamen and Lily-of-the-Valley; base notes are Sandalwood, Amber, Oakmoss, Cedar and Musk. This masculine perfume bears the heritage of old values in revelation of the new age. It is addressed on man with a sense of style, elegant as well as traditional, presented as sharp woody and spicy fragrance. Designed by Jean-Paul Guerlain in 1992, it greets you with fresh notes of bergamot, orange, aldehydes, green accords, lavender, lemon, petit grain, violet, clary sage and the gentle touch of nutmeg. The middle notes of the perfume bring the explosion and richness of spices which interact with floral scents (pepper, coriander, orris root, along with rose, jasmine, carnation, honeysuckle, geranium and lily-of-the-valley). The warmth of the woody notes is emphasized at the base by cedar, vetiver, patchouli, amber, tonka bean, oakmoss, sandalwood and powdery vanilla. The elegant bottle, traditional and sheen, was created by Robert Granai, and can be bought as 50 and 100 ml edt, as well as the aftershave and shower collection.
