HeartThe Soul
The story behind the bottle.
Mon Exclusif by Guerlain, launched in 2015 and crafted by Thierry Wasser, is an Oriental Woody fragrance that marries sweet and aromatic notes into a warm embrace. The candied almond and toffee top notes create an initial wave of sweetness, which then gives way to the soft floral and lavender heart. This composition settles into a base of vanilla, iris, sandalwood, and white musk, creating a powdery and aldehydic finish that lingers with comforting warmth.
Apply two sprays for a balanced experience — the candied almond top note fades quickly but leaves behind a lasting warmth from the vanilla and powdery base. This fragrance is best suited for evenings or cooler weather when its comforting notes can fully envelop you.
