Guerlain Perfumes: Timeless Creations and New Horizons

Guerlain, the renowned French perfume house established in 1828, symbolizes sophistication and creativity through fragrances that have captivated generations. Among its legendary perfumes, Shalimar, introduced in 1925, remains iconic for its profound oriental notes of vanilla, iris, and bergamot. Jicky, first launched in 1889, continues to enchant with its aromatic blend of lavender, rosemary, and civet.

Recently, Guerlain unveiled Jasmin Bonheur (2024), a vibrant addition to the acclaimed L’Art & La Matière collection. Crafted by perfumer Delphine Jelk, Jasmin Bonheur presents jasmine grandiflorum accented by sun-drenched apricot and soft, powdery iris. Another modern highlight is Habit Rouge Rouge Privé (2023), where the brand reimagines its classic Habit Rouge fragrance with richer accords of leather, bergamot, and patchouli.

These creations exemplify Guerlain’s continuous commitment to excellence, reflecting both heritage and innovation within the art of perfumery.
