The story behind the bottle.
Jean-Paul Guerlain launched Mayotte in 2006 as a floral masterpiece that encapsulates the essence of an exotic island. The fragrance opens with bright frangipani and neroli, creating a luminous freshness before diving into the heart of tuberose and ylang-ylang. These rich florals are underscored by a warm vanilla base, which is complemented by the earthy tones of sandalwood and vetiver. Mayotte is a composition that speaks to the lasting elegance for which Guerlain is known.
Mayotte has a long-lasting base that blooms gradually. Apply it to pulse points for warmth and depth throughout the day. It pairs well with light layers during warmer months, allowing its rich florals to shine without overpowering.
