The story behind the bottle.
Oeillet Pourpre by Guerlain is a warm and spicy Oriental fragrance that was launched in 2021. Created by perfumers Thierry Wasser and Delphine Jelk, this composition opens with the sharp bite of clove and pear before transitioning to a heart of carnation and benzoin. The base notes of vanilla, smoke, leather, woody notes, and musk create a rich, smoky warmth that harkens back to Guerlain's tradition of using luxurious and rare materials.
Apply Oeillet Pourpre to pulse points for a subtle yet lasting presence. The smoky base notes emerge after an hour, so a light application allows the fragrance to build naturally on your skin throughout the day.
