Les Légendaires - Idylle Eau De Parfum 75ml

Love gives her wings. Flitting from one love affair to another, she dips into emotional games with delight.

To embody this incorrigible romantic, perfumer Thierry Wasser created a rose palette featuring what Guerlain has named a “communelle” of Bulgarian roses.
From this, a fresh and joyful bouquet of lilac, peony, lily of the valley accord, and freesia emerges majestically against the sensuality of chypre notes, honed with patchouli and white musks.

It’s within this perfectly harmonious, delicate idyll that an exuberant and sparkling whirlwind of love takes shape, the sensation of an unforgettable emotion.

A LEGEND OF LOVE’S WHIRLWIND WITHIN A FLORAL AND PATCHOULI BOUQUET

Idylle opens with a shower of flowers that combine in a fresh and joyful bouquet featuring lily of the valley accord, peony, freesia and white lilac.
The heart of the fragrance reveals jasmine paired with a “communelle” of Bulgarian roses (a blend of different batches of essence).
The base, a chypre accord worked around patchouli and white musks brings added sensuality.

Patchouli.
Patchouli essence features many vegetal, woody and earthy olfactory facets.
Combined with rose, moss and bergamot, patchouli forms the base of the chypre accord.

White musks.
Musks are skin-loving materials which by evoking clean, velvety scents teeter between innocence and sensuality.
Their elusive powdery fragrance melds with the skin to develop into an intimate, comforting fragrance trail with exceptional staying power.

Floral bouquet.
A floral bouquet featuring lily of the valley accord, peony, freesia and white lilac, jasmine and bulgarian roses.

A LEGENDARY BOTTLE

Designed by Raymond Guerlain in 1912, its iconic “inverted heart” bottle is underscored with graceful scrolls typical of Art Nouveau.
Its avant-garde stopper, in the form of a hollowed heart, evokes the delicate romanticism of this perfumery masterpiece and represented a real technical feat at the time.
