The story behind the bottle.
Precious Heart by Guerlain, launched in 2004 and crafted by Frank Voelkl, is a Floral Green fragrance that embodies the brand's tradition of using luxurious and rare materials. The composition opens with bright citrus and fruity notes before giving way to a heart of floral aromatics. A warm spicy and woody base anchors the scent, creating a harmonious blend that feels both fresh and comforting.
Apply Precious Heart in light sprays for a balanced experience. The citrus top notes are bright but fleeting, while the floral heart provides a gentle warmth that lasts throughout the day. This fragrance reads best close to skin rather than across a room, so aim for pulse points.
