The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2013 by Guerlain, Cour des Senteurs Versailles is a Floral Green fragrance that captures the essence of the French royal gardens. Perfumer Thierry Wasser crafted this composition around bright bergamot and galbanum, creating an opening that feels fresh and invigorating. The heart notes of jasmine, cyclamen, lily-of-the-valley, and freesia add a delicate floral warmth, while white musk and amber provide a soft, powdery base that gently envelops the wearer.
Apply this fragrance to pulse points for optimal longevity. The bergamot and galbanum top notes are bright but fleeting, so allow it time to evolve into its warmer heart and base notes. It's best worn during the day or early evening when you want a fresh yet comforting scent.
