The Story

Launched in 1998 by Guerlain and crafted by Jean-Paul Guerlain, Muguet 1998 is a fresh white floral fragrance that captures the essence of spring. The composition opens with green notes and bergamot, creating an immediate sense of crispness and renewal. At its heart, lily-of-the-valley takes center stage, supported by jasmine, lilac, and rose, each note adding layers of delicate complexity. The base of white musk and sandalwood ensures a warm and comforting finish that remains true to Guerlain's tradition of using luxurious materials.

Application Tips

Apply Muguet 1998 to pulse points for best effect. The green and citrus top notes are bright but fleeting, so layering with a touch of moisturizer can help extend their presence. This fragrance is particularly suited for daytime wear, where its light-hearted freshness will complement your morning activities.

Jean-Paul Guerlain portrait
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 subtle yet unmistakable fragrance of freshly picked lilies in a quiet Parisian courtyard, where the scent of spring blends with the soft rustle of leaves.
