Launched in 1992 by Guerlain, Heritage Eau de Parfum was crafted by Jean-Paul Guerlain as a Woody Spicy fragrance for men. The composition opens with bright aldehydes and citrus notes that give way to a heart of lavender, clary sage, and green notes. These fresh elements are balanced by warm spices like pepper and coriander, leading into a rich base of patchouli, sandalwood, oakmoss, and musk. The blend is both robust and refined, reflecting the brand's tradition of using luxurious materials.

Application Tips
Apply Heritage Eau de Parfum with two sprays — its top notes are vibrant but short-lived. The heart and base notes develop over time, so wearing it close to skin allows you to experience the full depth of the composition.
Jean-Paul Guerlain
Founding perfumer · 89 fragrances · b. 1937 · French
“I am the last Guerlain to make perfume. After me, the house continues — but the family chapter closes.”
Jean-Paul Guerlain is the fourth and final generation of Guerlain family perfumers, a lineage that spans nearly two centuries of French fragrance history. Taking the creative helm of the house in 1955, he continued the family's tradition of creating deeply personal, emotionally rich fragrances. His masterpieces — Habit Rouge, Vétiver, Samsara, and Héritage — are cornerstones of the perfume canon. Jean-Paul brought a more modern, sometimes daring sensibility to the Guerlain tradition, while always maintaining the house's legendary commitment to the finest raw materials.

The story behind the bottle.
The quiet confidence of a well-worn leather-bound book on a polished mahogany desk, where crisp green notes give way to the rich depth of patchouli and sandalwood.
