Les Secrets de Sophie by Guerlain was launched in 2009 and crafted by the legendary Jean-Paul Guerlain. This Oriental Floral fragrance opens with a vibrant citrus accord of bitter orange, Tunisian neroli, and bergamot, which creates an immediate freshness. The heart is anchored by white florals like jasmine, orange blossom, and ylang-ylang, lending it a delicate sweetness. As the scent evolves, notes of violet leaf and incense add a subtle smokiness, while tonka bean, vanilla, and white musk provide a warm, comforting base. This composition is a proof of Guerlain's commitment to luxurious materials, blending natural essences with an innovative touch.

Apply this fragrance to pulse points for a warm embrace throughout the day. The citrus notes are bright but fade within an hour, so reapply if you want them to linger. The base notes will last well into the evening.
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 intimacy of a late afternoon in a Parisian salon, where soft light and the gentle scent of white flowers blend with subtle smokiness.
