The story behind the bottle.
La Cuvée Secrète by Guerlain was launched in 2017 as a fresh and invigorating Eau de Cologne that draws on the brand's heritage of using luxurious materials. Created by perfumer Thierry Wasser, this fragrance combines the brightness of bergamot and petitgrain with the aromatic freshness of lavender and green herbal notes. The scent is described as a secret formula handed down through generations, capturing the essence of Guerlain’s artistry and refinement.
Apply this cologne with a light hand — it blooms quickly and stays close to the skin. A single spray on pulse points is enough for a long-lasting effect that captures its fresh and invigorating essence.
