La Cologne Du Parfumeur
by Guerlain
La Cologne Du Parfumeur by Guerlain is a refined, modern interpretation of the classic Eau de Cologne, characterized by its light, close-to-skin wear and botanical freshness. It opens with a subtle burst of citrus and African orange blossom, softened by herbal notes of lavender, rosemary, and mint—though the mint appears only as a transient accent. The core accord centers on a clean, powdery lavender with a faintly earthy, vetiver-like dryness, creating a sense of fresh linen or white musk. The scent settles into a warm, airy floral-musky base that feels deeply unisex and intimate. Despite its delicate structure, it’s remarkably well-balanced and breathable, evoking images of Mediterranean summers, clean cottons, and quiet moments in a garden.
