The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2010, Idylle Eau de Toilette by Guerlain is crafted by Thierry Wasser and captures the essence of a floral bouquet with a touch of lightness. The fragrance opens with a bright burst of Bulgarian rose, surrounded by lily of the valley, white lilac, peony, and jasmine. These florals are delicately balanced by green and musky notes that create an airy, fresh composition. This EDT is more floral than its eau de parfum predecessor but maintains the signature Guerlain elegance.

How to wear it

This fragrance blooms best when applied to pulse points. Allow it an hour for the full floral notes to settle. It’s particularly enchanting during transitional weather, capturing the essence of spring or early fall.
