The Story

Eau de Guerlain, launched by the renowned French house of Guerlain in 1974 and crafted by Jean-Paul Guerlain, is a sophisticated blend of citrus, aromatic, and fresh spicy notes. The fragrance opens with a vibrant burst from lemon and bergamot, which then gives way to a heart filled with lavender, carnation, jasmine, and rose. It settles into a base of sandalwood, patchouli, oakmoss, musk, and amber, creating an intriguing balance between freshness and warmth. This composition captures the essence of French elegance while offering a modern twist.

Application Tips

Apply two sprays to your pulse points; this fragrance blooms best when close to skin. The top notes are bright and will fade within an hour, but the warm base notes carry through the day. Ideal for daytime wear where it reads as fresh and invigorating.

Jean-Paul Guerlain portrait
I am the last Guerlain to make perfume. After me, the house continues — but the family chapter closes.

Jean-Paul Guerlain is the fourth and final generation of Guerlain family perfumers, a lineage that spans nearly two centuries of French fragrance history. Taking the creative helm of the house in 1955, he continued the family's tradition of creating deeply personal, emotionally rich fragrances. His masterpieces — Habit Rouge, Vétiver, Samsara, and Héritage — are cornerstones of the perfume canon. Jean-Paul brought a more modern, sometimes daring sensibility to the Guerlain tradition, while always maintaining the house's legendary commitment to the finest raw materials.
