The Story

Launched in 2021, L'Heure Bleue Eau de Toilette by Guerlain is a reimagining of the classic Oriental Floral fragrance originally crafted by Jacques Guerlain. This composition opens with aromatic spices and bergamot before transitioning into a heart of violet, carnation, neroli, tuberose, rose, and iris. The base notes of vanilla, benzoin, and tonka bean create a warm, powdery embrace that is both comforting and elegant.

Application Tips

Apply two sprays to the pulse points. The aromatic spices and bergamot will quickly fade, leaving the heart and base notes to unfold over several hours. This fragrance is best suited for intimate settings where it can be appreciated up close rather than across a room.

Jacques Guerlain portrait
When I created Shalimar, I was thinking of the great love stories — of Shah Jahan and Mumtaz Mahal.

Jacques Guerlain is one of the greatest perfumers who ever lived — the man who gave the world Shalimar, Mitsouko, L'Heure Bleue, and Vol de Nuit. As the third-generation perfumer of the House of Guerlain, he elevated the family craft into high art. Working in the legendary Guerlain laboratory on the Champs-Élysées, he drew inspiration from love, literature, and travel to create fragrances of unprecedented emotional depth. Shalimar, inspired by the gardens of the Taj Mahal and his love affair with a woman whose identity remains mysterious, is perhaps the most celebrated perfume in history.

The story behind the bottle.

The gentle hum of an old-world parlor where soft lighting casts a warm glow on delicate floral arrangements, blending powdery notes with spicy undertones.
