The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2013 and crafted by Thierry Wasser, Place Rouge by Guerlain is a Chypre Floral fragrance that weaves together the freshness of citrus and aromatic notes with the warmth of powdery florals. The opening of bergamot and rosemary sets a crisp tone before giving way to the heart of orange blossom, violet, and heliotrope, which blend into a soft, enveloping embrace. The base of jasmine and patchouli adds depth and earthiness, creating a fragrance that is both elegant and approachable.
Apply Place Rouge lightly at first — it has a warm base that builds gradually on your skin. A single spray is enough to ensure a steady presence throughout the day without overpowering.
