The story behind the bottle.
Coriolan, launched by Guerlain in 1998 and crafted by Jean-Paul Guerlain, is a Woody Chypre fragrance that captures the essence of French elegance and tradition. The composition opens with bright citrus notes like lemon and bergamot, which are balanced by aromatic herbs such as sage and petitgrain. As it evolves, the scent reveals earthy undertones from oakmoss and patchouli, complemented by a subtle leather accord that adds depth and warmth. This multifaceted fragrance is neither overly sweet nor overpowering, making it a versatile choice for both day and evening.
Apply this fragrance to pulse points for a more intimate wear. The citrus opening fades within an hour, so reapply if you want it to last through the evening. It pairs well with layering under a jacket or sweater.
