01 A HOTLY ANTICIPATED ICONIC BOUTIQUE

Amidst the buzz of 1913's Paris, Guerlain opened its boutique on the Champs-Elysées. To celebrate the move, Jacques Guerlain treated Parisians to the "Parfum des Champs-Elysées" fragrance, enclosed in its spectacular Baccarat crystal turtle-shaped bottle in a tongue-in-cheek nod to the slow building process that had repeatedly delayed the inauguration. Ritz architect Charles Mewes poured all his unbridled talent into designing a space the papers at the time described as a "new temple to beauty".  

02 LE PASSEUR DU TEMPS

For the reopening of the legendary boutique at 68 Champs Elysées and in a nod to the premises’ history, Guerlain reworked 1913’s iconic Turtle bottle, with Baccarat serving up a new black crystal version in a monumental one-litre format.

03 A BREATH-TAKING BOTTLE

Guerlain and Baccarat reimagined this unique bottle in spectacular, astonishing black crystal. This technical prowess was made possible by restoring a 100-year-old mould, a treasure dug out from Guerlain's archives, embodying the Maison's traditional know-how and Baccarat's expertise.

04 A SUMPTUOUS SETTING

This stunning one-litre bottle dazzles as the centrepiece amidst a fairy tale décor made up of reiterations of Paris’ greatest monuments, all gilded in the finest of gold. This painstakingly crafted masterpiece is the work of a master artisan from the Ateliers Gohard.

05 LE PARFUM
DU 68, A SIGNATURE SCENT

Thierry Wasser composed a special Extrait de Parfum for this glorious folly, Le Parfum du 68, a woody fragrance that plays on the contrast between cool and warm spices. Immortelle reigns supreme here, lending muscle to the floral heart of the perfume, while tonka bean, benzoin and incense infused with notes of leather envelop the scent in a decadently Guerlain sillage.
