GUERLAIN L'Heure Bleue 1912 Eau de Toilette 75 ml

The Blue Hour is part of the Legendary Fragrances collection by Guerlain. A collection of iconic fragrances, created over the past century by five generations of perfumers. These legendary fragrances, which were profoundly innovative for their time, form a unique olfactory library—an incomparable and unrivaled treasure—that the House Guerlain is committed to preserving.

Just as the sun dips below the horizon and the sky takes on the velvety hues of night, the Blue Hour fills the air with its atmosphere.
The Blue Hour Eau de Toilette is one of the brand's signature fragrances Guerlain. The perfumer Guerlain celebrates, in a more sensual, more "skin-deep" way, the moment when "the night has not yet found its star." A hymn to the good life and to romance.

"The sun has set, yet night has not fallen. It is a moment suspended in time... The moment when man finally finds himself in harmony with the world and the light," said Jacques Guerlain. He spoke of his favorite moment, when “the night has not yet found its star.” It was this fleeting sensation that he sought to capture in 1912 with the fragrance L’Heure Bleue.

Designed by George Chevalier, its iconic “inverted heart” bottle is accentuated by the graceful scrollwork characteristic of Art Nouveau. A true technical feat, its avant-garde stopper—shaped like a hollowed-out heart—evokes the delicate romanticism of this landmark in perfumery.
Oriental Floral.
Endearing, moving, captivating.

At the top, the fragrance captivates us with the boldness of anise and the freshness of bergamot. At the heart, the carnation and neroli accord express a delicate sensuality. The base, oriental and powdery, is captivating with its powdery notes of iris and violet and its gourmand notes of vanilla, benzoin, and tonka bean.
