Absolutely no doubt about it Guerlain is a maker of quality fragrances, I've got quite a few bottles myself, also I've bought a lot of their perfumes for the girlfriend, such as Shalimar, L'Instant Magic, Bois d’Arménie, definitely up there with Chanel, in most cases better.

I've collected a number of fine fragrances from this notable house, and enjoy them all for different reasons. Heritage to Shalimar, Habit Rouge to Aqua Allegoria Pamplelune, Vetiver to Mouchoir de Monsieur, L'Iinstant de Guerlain Eau Extreme to Guerlain Homme, Homme L'Eau and L'Eau Boisee. This house has created many wonderful, even masterpiece, scents. But my favorite of all has to be Coriolan. Seldom talked about, it is very masculine and classy. And the bottle design is one of the best I've ever run across. I'm very happy with my ever-growing collection of Guerlains.

Guerlain is one of my two favorite mainstream fragrance brands, along with Bvlgari. Another line from Guerlain that not everyone talks about is Homme, which is a grassy/woodsy lime fragrance. EDP is sweeter and boozier, and L’Eau Boiseé is drier and more woodsy. I personally own L’Eau Boiseé, and it’s a fantastic woody aromatic.

Just before Christmas, I decided to do a personal "Top 6 I Can't Live Without" from my collection. I tried to do a top 5 but just had to have the 6. There are two Guerlains on my list: L'Instant de Guerlain EDT and Habit Rouge EDT. If I had to choose just one for the rest of my life Habit Rouge would probably be it. It's never been out of my rotation in over 30 years. BTW, the other 4 that make up the top 6 are: Chanel - Pour Monsieur, Creed - Green Irish Tweed, Creed - Aventus and Dior - Eau Sauvage. How Guerlain manages to produce such superb quality at such reasonable prices is a mystery. Maybe it says how much Creed perfumes are overpriced?

CREED may be overpriced nowadays, and the overall quality has definitely been dwindling over the years, but just think of the House pedigree and all the famous historical figures who have worn CREED scents: Adam and Eve, Noah, Heracles and Theseus, Andromeda, Odin, Thor, Freya, Asterix and Obelix, Cleopatra, Alexander the Great, Odysseus and Penelope, Agamemnon and Clytemnestra , Achilles and Patroclus, Menelaus, Paris, and Helen of Troy, Melchizedek, Nebuchadnezzar, Tutankhamen, Ramses II, Tuthmosis III, Shaka Zulu, Jesus Christ, Pontius Pilate, Sherlock Holmes, Tin-Tin, Poirot- the list goes on and on...

Love Vetiver but it’s definitely something I had to come around to. Now I love putting it on on a cool fall day when I’m off from my busy work schedule. Love the tobacco in here and it’s pairing with the vetiver. Yes it’s dated but I find it comforting and a nice change from all the tooth rotting sweet cologne they put out today. I must say I’m beginning to enjoy my more mature fragrances as I too am getting older. I keep this on the shelf with invasion/ Boise du Portugal/ incident diplomatique and royal oud and of course your masterpieces as well Dan. Hoping for a follow up to you impressive line.

Guerlain still does it well, even as part of LVMH. Heritage is a compelling fragrance for me. At times linear and subtle, then all of the sudden complex. I smell Shalimar at times. Vetiver is one of my all time favorites. It holds up to any modern perfumery. Habit Rouge is gorgeous as well. There’s a reason they’ve been around such a long time.

Habit Rouge is my favorite, so good. Add Vetiver, Encre Noire, Azzaro Intense, Versace L'Homme top 5. I need a blue, so either Versace or probably Acqua Essenziale Blu. Bentley Infinite Intense, Issey Miyake OG, Hanae Mori HiM, and something for summer. My heart doesn't allow me ventures outside but still, sitting in solarium with a ceiling fan going and a pitcher of margaritas, I would need a freshie...on the cheap, as you can see. Acqua Essenziale Colonia perhaps. That's a solid 10 built inexpensively...or Mr Smelley could just send me one each Guerlain!

My favorite Guerlain masculine is THE reference Vetiver, Guerlain Vetiver. I don't see it as "austere", but rather "old school" with a slight, and I mean slight, animalis vibe that lends that 1959 classic DNA. But not austere. Austere to me would be Floris No. 89, or Creed Tabarome, or Givenchy Gentleman EDT 1974. I don't particularly like any of those. Too austere. Guerlain Vetiver is absolutely beautiful. Think Tom Ford Grey Vetiver, which used the Guerlain as its inspiration, except with the added classic accord. Second is Heritage, which I see as a Fougere-like fragrance with an added herb and spice element that imparts a memory chest full of memorabilia. Hence the name Heritage. It, by accident, is a better Whispers in the Library than the Maison Martin Margiela Replica fragrance of that name is. And Heritage is closer in DNA to Ralph Lauren Safari and YSL Jazz than Givenchy Gentleman EDT 1974, certainly. I have Guerlain Eau de Cologne Imperiale, which I guess is the historic 1853 simple citrus cologne. The bee bottle is nice. I guess we can trust Guerlain's history more than, say, Creed's. I am learning to like Habit Rouge as time passes, mainly due to the historical context being essentially a masculinized Shalimar. I like the more modern L'Instant also. Never tried Derby, Le Frenchy or any of that line.

Think I'll definitely have to try Eau Dr Guerlain as well now based on your review. Luckily I have 3 bottles of I'Deal Cologne seen as it's discontinued. All Guerlain Frags are absolutely belting for the money and I totally agree they are as good if not better than either Chanel or Dior frags.👍👍

Wonderful house, and well worth stopping by their corner of the department store to smell all of these. I'd also check out the Aqua Allegoria line which runs under a hundred bucks US. They are unisex fruity florals that I find great at the end of the day after a shower, or perhaps weekend mornings. They are not "gentlemanly" but do brighten up the world, and I find very calming scents.

All those are great works of art. My favourite ones are LIDG EDP and Habit Rouge. Also Habit Rouge L'Eau is great (slightly aquatic and more modern than the classic). I also do like Vetiver but not so much Vetiver Extreme. Heritage is a very complex masterpiece. I have an EDP sample. In the opening it reminds me of mature successfull company owner. In the mid it's a jump centuries back - totally smells like old wooden statues and benches in centuries old churches. The far drydown however lets me down - to me it smells dry and powdery like an old lady fragrance. Don't know how the EDT smells in this regard. But the LIDG EDP and Habit Rouge (EDT, EDP) are my absolute loves. Guerlain is really a great house. Much more interesting than Chanel or Dior.

I like your selection, I think that for someone that have problems to accept Guerlain Vetiver they can try (if they can find it because has been discontinued) Guerlain Vetiver Eau Glacee also known as Frozen Fragrance, to me is one of the most easy to accept vetiver fragrances, sparking and refreshing and with very good longevity for an EDT, I just love it, one that I think you should have added is Guerlain Homme EDP Intense that is the name of the vintage but currently there is a new incarnation from 2016 Guerlain Homme EDP, the formula is a bit different but still good.

Love Heritage EDT, just bought a backup vintage bottle. Got a vintage LIDGE as well, but sadly the top notes were a bit spoiled. Solid dry down after 10min, but I usually get out off by the spoiled top notes. I wish they kept the same bottle design they used to have for both, the old bottles are so cool/classy. The new generic bottle...well, it's just that.
