Heir to Guerlain’s exceptional heritage, Les Légendaires collection pays tribute to legendary creations composed by five generations of perfumers since 1828. Inspired by a series of love stories, both real and imagined, each fragrance infused with raw materials leaves a glorious scent of emotion in its wake.
Discover L'Heure Bleue, the fragrance of suspended time.
It’s that time of day when day embraces night and silence fully envelopes the world. An expression of harmony, a moment of stillness and grace tinted with deep blue echoed in L'Heure Bleue, composed in 1912.
Painting an impressionistic olfactory canvas, Jacques Guerlain merged the violet accord and iris with the creamy ivory of vanilla, leaving a bewitching fragrance trail of both fresh and warm nuances. Through this ambery floral, a tale of eternal love is told. In this moment of suspended time, when the night is “yet to find its star” as Jacques Guerlain described it, L'Heure Bleue marks the meeting of two soulmates destined to become one in the frisson of eternity.
“The sun has just set, but night hasn’t yet fallen. Time is suspended… in a moment when man finally finds himself in harmony with the world and with light.”
- Jacques Guerlain.
With their emblematic, gem-like bottles, the famous inverted heart designed by Raymond Guerlain, Les Légendaires transcends the passing of time, serving as immortal inspiration for the future.
