Patchouli Paris reveals a facet of the capital as yet unexplored by Guerlain: the dazzle and magnetism of Parisian nights. Disinhibited, patchouli puts on a show. A game of contrasts, between the immediate freshness of the banks of the Seine and the intoxicating warmth of a woody note of patchouli, evoking the effervescence of Parisian nights and the elegance of a woody note, evoking the wood of fine theatres.

THE FRAGRANCE ARTIST'S TOUCH
With Patchouli Paris, Delphine Jelk intended to capture the soul of the Parisian night...to recount its audacity, to reveal its fragrance; the Seine blushing and pulsating, in a fresh, lively shiver of aldehydes and musks.
"If Patchouli Paris were a color, it would be the red glow of the artistic effervescence of Parisian nights." Delphine Jelk, Guerlain perfume creative Director and Perfumer
Patchouli Paris expresses the vibrancy of streets ablaze on a festive evening, in a trail of powdery, woody iris. Paris, dizzy with music and freedom.
THE SOUL OF PATCHOULI BY NIGHT
Patchouli Paris evokes a stroll through the heart of Parisian night. From the very first notes, the composition sweeps along with aldehydes, as fresh and lively as a shiver across skin. Then, the temperature rises at night under the red lights of Paris’ most impassioned district. Montmartre, Abbesses, Pigalle… We are at the heart of the Matière: disinhibited patchouli puts on a show and blazes upon contact with powdery and woody iris. The revelry changes face as the night draws to a close end as a prelude to other sensations. Caressing the skin, the depth of patchouli continues in an amber-toned sillage of vanilla, ambergris accord and musk.
IN THE PERFUMER'S WORDS
"IT'S AN EXTRAORDINARY MATERIAL, BUT ONE THAT'S HARD TO TAME, BECAUSE ALL ITS BEAUTY LIES IN ITS FLAWS, ITS SLIGHTLY CAMPHOROUS NUANCES AT FIRST, ITS WOODY, EARTHY ACCENTS. THAT'S PRECISELY WHAT MAKES IT SO ADDICTIVE."
Delphine Jelk, Guerlain Perfume Creative Director & Perfumer
PARIS, GUERLAIN'S CAPITAL
Since 1828, the magic of the French capital has continually nourished the creative vision of the Maison. One becoming the ambassador of the first and the magic of the second inspiring the other. Paris puts on a show, lights up, becomes electric. In the effervescence of sleepless nights, the atmosphere blushes with passion and pleasure. When night falls and Paris is adorned in light, the world of the stage becomes a treasure trove of inspiration.
EXCEPTIONAL PLATES: PARISIAN INSPIRATION
Patchouli Paris comes with two exclusive plates. A first plate pays tribute to the artist Christian Bérard and its iconic signature. Adorned in a brilliant red, the plate is reminiscent of the capital’s glowing lights.
A second collector’s plate, a truly exceptional piece, is the result of a collaboration with feather worker Valérie Tanfin. Hand-crafted, the delicate gem evokes the legendary savoir-faire of feather artisans.
