The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2006, Cologne du 68 by Guerlain is a creation from perfumer Sophie Labbé that marries the freshness of citrus and aromatic notes with subtle floral and green undertones. This fragrance opens with bright citruses and fresh spicy accords, giving way to a heart of white and yellow florals, before settling into an iris-infused base that adds depth and warmth. The composition is a proof of Guerlain's legacy of using luxurious materials while embracing the freshness of modern perfumery.

How to wear it

Apply Cologne du 68 sparingly — the bright top notes are immediate but short-lived. The floral heart and iris base take time to develop fully on skin, so one or two sprays in key areas like wrists and neck will allow the fragrance to evolve naturally throughout the day.
