Mr. G

Hello !

Hi Mr. Guerlain! I am really interested in buying Chamade but I'm wondering if it would work okay on a guy. I've also heard that it's been changed and I'm wondering if it would be best to wait for a vintage bottle to show up on e-bay. Is the EDT as good as the parfum?

Monsieur Guerlain
never seen it such clear , romantic and truly fragrance description such as your on Eau the Guerlain Comments.. really meaning and useful comments!!
Regards
Eduardo

Cher Monsieur Guerlain,
I am in awe at the depth of knowledge and the passion that goes with it in your appreciation for the house of Guerlain. You are an invaluable fount of wonderful information. To this I say: Cheers!

Humbly,

Monsieur Guerlain,

You have one of the most comprehensive, informative, well organized and aesthetically pleasing fragrance websites that I have ever seen. When I visit I feel like I am in 'Guerlain University'. I have to say it is very 'user friendly'. Thank you for sharing.

Hello Mr. Guerlain, I need your shopping expertise. I attempted to buy Chant D'Aromes in extrait in Nov. The "Shop France" lady, you may know her, Suzan Becker, was going on a buying trip there. She inquired and was told they did not make it any more and didn't have any. I ended up getting EDT from an e-tail shop. It's pretty dull. I see your post in Nov. on POL and you say you just bought a 30ml extrait! Did you get the last one? Is it still possible to get one? Thanks for your time, Kumquat

Hi Ulrik,

I wish to know what is the original concentration of Jicky (EDT?), since I'm considering to purchase a bottle in the near future and, for the sake of historical curiosity, I want to "start from the beginning".

I'm already acquainted with Habit Rouge (EDC and EDT), Héritage (EDT), Shalimar (EDT) and Vetiver, I love all of them and I believe Jicky is the next step.

Yours

Hallo, today I sent PM about the age of onion shaped bottle but no reply. Can you at least give me any source where I could search myself? Thanks. Alica

Hey Ulrik!

I'm currently a big fan of Mouchoir de Monsieur, and quite honestly, it has probably forced me to assert that Guerlain is perhaps the best perfume house out there, with Creed coming second. I have thought about enlarging my Guerlain collection.

I use MdM for church mostly - feast days, especially. I'm now looking for something very versatile (ocassions and seasons) that I can wear to work - especially for a 24 year old school teacher. And In your opinion, is Habit Rouge very work friendly? I heard it was very powdery.

Regards,

Mike a.k.a. Texican

Hello. I had posted a question in Women's fragrances, and a member gave me your name/link saying you were the person to ask. I hope you don't mind the intrusion. Here is what I posted:
Hello, I was wondering if anyone can help me with any information on the bottle of Shalimar I have. It was a gift a few years back (maybe 6 years ago?). I popped the top open once, dabbed, I scent didn't agree with me. The gift'er thought I may like it since I was a devout Opium user. Anyhow, I tucked it in a closet and just came across it again. I thought it a shame it wasn't being used, thinking if I didn't keep it for it's beautiful bottle, that I might list it on Ebay. When I searched for Shalimar, I didn't see the type of bottle I have.
It's shape is the same classic deco but the stopper is clear, not blue and in gold says 'Guerlain Paris'. There is no gold rope tassel around it's neck (It didn't come with one), and the words 'SHALIMAR EAU DE PARFUM' are in gold in the indented design on middle of bottle, but it isn't a gold foil sticker like I've seen, instead the gold lettering seems applied directly on the bottle. The bottom of the bottle has a clear sticker which reads ' 30 ml 1 FL OZ 68, CHAMPS-ELYSEES 75008 PARIS MADE IN FRANCE DT232'.
I can see under the sticker without removing it, in opaque it says 'GUERLAIN BOTTLE MADE IN FRANCE'.
It's box is dark blue velveteen, SHALIMAR EAU DE PARFUM, GUERLAIN PARIS 30 ml e 1 FL OZ.
The box's bottom flap reads in small gold caps: Ingredients: alcohol parfum aqua/Contains: alcohol fragrance water
Ce produit ne peut etre vendu que par le depositaries agrees par la societe guerlain conformement a ses conditions generales de ventes. Copyright Guerlain 1998 68, Champs-Elysees 75008 Paris Made In France.
Underneath that is a gold rectangle with lightly embossed 'DT232'. Lastly a gold arrow in a circle at bottom right.
The box isn't a box, within a box. Inside is a dark blue cardboard insert that holds the bottle.
I would appreciate any info. I remember coming here years ago in search of help regarding a scent and everyone was extremely knowledegable and friendly. Thank you, in advance. I just saw I can attach a photo, and have attached two. Thank you again.
