Founded in Paris in 1828 by perfumer and chemist Pierre-François-Pascal Guerlain, the Maison earned the favour of European courts after the creation of Eau de Cologne Impériale for Empress Eugénie in 1853. Passed down through four generations, it joined LVMH in 1994 while continuing its heritage of haute parfumerie and French beauty.
Guerlain's style is built around the Guerlinade, a dialogue between bergamot, rose, jasmine, vanilla, tonka bean and iris, without reducing each creation to a fixed formula. Thierry Wasser and Delphine Jelk work with carefully selected natural materials, drawing on French expertise in which bee bottles and artisanal craftsmanship extend the fragrance experience.
Right now at Fragsplit, 4 Guerlain fragrances are available as 1 to 10 ml decants or official samples: L'Homme Idéal (Eau de Parfum), L'Homme Idéal Cool, Bois Mystérieux, Iris Pallida - Extrait 6.
