Guerlain - Samsara EDP 75ml

THE SCENT OF ABSOLUTE LOVE

She has found harmony. She’s at one with herself and the world. She radiates with serene beauty and fulfilment. Jean-Paul Guerlain composed this distinguished woody, amber fragrance for the woman in his life who never wore perfume. Returning from travels in the East, the perfumer brought with him precious jasmine and sandalwood, sacred essences of the Gods used in temples, which he then enveloped with ylang-ylang and vanilla. Samsara, a Sanskrit word meaning "eternal rebirth", is more than a statement. It’s wildly seductive and the pure expression of an absolute love that forever embodies the scent of a true, sacred love.

A LEGEND OF SACRED LOVE, A RADIANT BALANCE OF JASMINE AND SANDALWOOD

From the moment it takes flight, Samsara envelops with its prevalence of jasmine flowers. Sunny ylang-ylang flowers accentuate this all the more by marrying them with the generously radiant warmth of sandalwood. Finally, iris, tonka bean and vanilla enhance and unify the pairings to create a remarkable fragrance trail.

YLANG YLANG

The ylang-ylang flower grows in the Comoros Islands. Too fragile to travel, it is directly transformed into essential oil via direct fire distillation.
Ylang-ylang essence is floral and sunny.

JASMINE

Jasmine grandiflorum absolute comes mainly from India. First the flowers are processed to create a concrete before being transformed into an absolute.Picked at dawn, jasmine grandiflorum, brings a green, fruity jasmine note to fragrance.
