Apres l'Ondee
by Guerlain
Guerlain's Apres l'Ondee, launched in 1906, is a timeless classic for women, evoking the serene and delicate atmosphere "After the Shower." Created by Jacques Guerlain, this exquisite fragrance is celebrated for its soft, powdery floral character, often described as melancholic and ethereal. Its heart features a prominent heliotrope, iris, and violet, contributing to a distinctive powdery accord. These are elegantly interwoven with notes of anise, mimosa, rose, and jasmine, resting on a warm, gentle base of vanilla, musk, and sandalwood. The composition also includes amber, benzoin, bergamot, carnation, cassia, lemon, neroli, orris root, styrax, vetiver, and ylang-ylang, creating a nuanced and subtly profound olfactive experience.
