Guerlain commits to the bee, sentinel of the environment

The fragrance of first times

Capacity : 75 ML

A legend of first love, trembling with rose, iris and vanilla

From the head L’Initial sparkles with citrus zest and a highly perfumed shower of jasmine petals. The heart then blossoms around a rose absolute overdosed with iris pallida, while the soft, gourmand base delights in a combination of smooth vanilla topped with caramel and paired with delicately sweet tonka bean. All completed with a misty cloud of white musk.

HOUSE SECRETS

L’Initial offers to rediscover the trail of Shalimar without its opulent sensuality while keeping its spirit and unforgettable signature. In tribute to this masterpiece of perfumery, Thierry Wasser composed a new version. He explains: “I had to keep the alchemy that makes it so desirable. I had to shed new light without disavowing the essence, transpose the fragrance without betraying it and imagine the future by honouring the past.”
The exquisiteness and daring of meeting with an olfactory treasure.

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.
