Guerlain - Hardcover

Eau de Cologne Imperiale, Jicky, I'Heure Bleue, Mitsouko, Shalimar, these immortal classics of the fifth sense are landmarks in the remarkable history of the House of Guerlain. Since its founding in 1828, Guerlain has created subtle compositions light years away from simple floral imitations. These fragrances invoke a mood in which romanticism and mystery are combined, and have attracted a prestigious clientele that includes royalty and connoisseurs. At the turn of the century, Aime Guerlain, the creator of Jicky, composed the famous magic formula Guerlinade--a velvety, intoxicating alliance of rose, jasmine, vanilla and tonka bean--which has become the sensual hallmark of every creation, including the most recent ones. It is a note that stirs the emotions and embodies the spirit of a great perfumer and his legend.
