EXTRAIT 75 FOR 75%
75 is the golden number of the Guerlain Tonka bean. Sourced from the Sarrapia tree, the Tonka bean is renowned for its natural coumarin content of up to 75%, which bestows it with its almondy note. Since 1889, Guerlain has used this molecule in microdosed amounts to enrich the Tonka bean, making it all the more powerful and delicious.
THE ART OF THE TONKA BEAN
NATURALLY PRESENT IN TONKA BEANS, COUMARIN WAS FIRST USED BY GUERLAIN IN 1889. THE VISIONARY AIMÉ GUERLAIN CREATED JICKY BY USING THIS SYNTHETIC MOLECULE TO STRENGTHEN THE NATURAL OLFACTORY POTENCY OF THE TONKA BEAN AND EXALT ITS SUMPTUOUSNESS. AND SO, THE FIRST “MODERN FRAGRANCE” WAS BORN.
THE EXTRACTS BOTTLE
Inspired by the Guerlain heritage Square Bottle (1870), the iconic L’Art & La Matière bottle has been decked out in gold for Les Extraits Signature. An exceptional object crafted by Pochet du Courval – historic glassmakers for the Maison – this contemporary-style jewel of a bottle can be infinitely replenished at selected Guerlain boutiques.
