Launched in 2022 by Guerlain, Les Absolus d'Orient Épices Exquises is a warm and spicy Oriental fragrance crafted by perfumer Thierry Wasser. The composition begins with the bright, sharp notes of cardamom and pink pepper, which create an initial burst of freshness before giving way to deeper layers of coffee and black pepper. At its heart, sandalwood and agarwood (oud) provide warmth and depth, while patchouli adds a grounding earthiness. This fragrance is a proof of Guerlain's commitment to using luxurious and rare materials, blending them into an intricate olfactory experience.
