perfume whisperer
Guerlain recently released a perfume inspired by their famous spherical powders, Les Météorites. I say inspired by versus named after, as they did previously have a Les Météorites perfume that was released in 2000 but is now discontinued. That version did smell true to the soft violet powder scent of the makeup – exactly like…
Look out guys, I’ve got some great fragrances for you to try out and I think you’re going to love them. These new releases really caught my nose, and frankly, these are scents anyone can wear. I put “Man” in the post name because I wanted to catch their attention, but these fragrances would be…
Guerlain just released a new perfume, with the ethereal Angelina Jolie as the face/muse. Her love for Guerlain started young, with her mother using Guerlain’s iconic powder, which has a distinct scent of violets and a hint of the divine Guerlinade, that beautifully joins floral notes with a whisper of animal and vanilla. I have the same…
For the first time, Guerlain creates in partnership with Natalia Vodianova, Souffle d’Or de Shalimar, a fine shimmery gold powder perfumed with Shalimar Souffle de Parfum fragrance. In collaboration with Olivier Echaudemaison, Creative Director of Guerlain, she has created her own make-up collection designed like a journey into the heart of the East and has…
Ah fall. I have mixed feelings about fall. I love the clean air, the smell of leaves underfoot and light in the sky. Where I live, fall is a welcome relief after a hot and humid summer. However, it’s what comes after fall that I do not like. Let’s not dwell on things like unpleasant…
Guerlain has me feeling the fall vibes with some of their gorgeous new offerings. The Guerlain eye shadow palettes for Fall 2016 are stunning! I think I’m in love, and I may even be ready for fall. Yes, I said it…ready. For. Fall. Guerlain has a few palettes for this fall that are all gorgeous….
“In it’s way, a perfume is an invisible dress, playing on the tension of what is hidden and what is revealed” Thierry Wasser, Guerlain Master Perfumer Guerlain La Petite Robe Noire is back again in a most delightful and delicious incarnation – the Eau de Parfum Intense. This perfume is a head-turner and guaranteed to…
Guerlain has done it again. By “it” I mean they have managed to delight and surprise with a unique and gorgeous makeup collection, but it’s not just any makeup collection. Guerlain La Petite Robe Noire Makeup is a collection of lip and nail shades that are delicately fragranced with La Petite Robe Noire perfume, and…
Guerlain changed the way we add a glow to our skin with their Météorites powder in 1987. They had already revolutionized our tans with their Terracotta, which is to this day the best bronzing powder. So with Les Météorites, they took the neutralizing colours of the makeup palette, and put them in one powder package…
Guerlain Mahora is a reviled Guerlain offering from 1999, partially I think because it should have been release in 1985. Or maybe even 1965. It’s lush, animalic, unapologetically rich and, to me, absolutely gorgeous. Mahora is Jacques Guerlain’s last creation for the house, released after Guerlain’s other weird and divisive Samsara. I happen to love…
