Guerlain Epices Volees is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2021, created by Jean-Paul Guerlain. Epices Volees opens with Bergamot, Lemon, Coriander, and Artemisia, settles into a heart of Rose, Cardamom, Clove, and Sage, and dries down to a base of Sandalwood, Patchouli, Labdanum, and Benzoin. Guerlain's Epices Volees carries a Favourite verdict, a musk-led wear.

This one's a divisive beast. Some reckon it's a masterpiece, a classic Guerlain spicy aromatic with a classy air. Others, though, smell cheap designer vibes or even, bizarrely, raw egg. Definitely one to try before you buy.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Fall Winter
Also Works:
Summer

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Office Casual

Its sophisticated spicy-woody character lends itself well to formal and date settings, conveying a mature elegance. While not overly loud, some find it too traditional or strong for everyday casual wear or the office, and it's certainly not suited for sport.

About

A complex aromatic symphony begins with a sharp, zesty lemon and bergamot, cut through by the green, slightly pungent coriander and artemisia. As it settles, a warm, spicy core emerges with prominent cardamom and clove, softened by a traditional rose. The dry-down reveals a smooth, creamy sandalwood and earthy patchouli, underpinned by a sweet, resinous benzoin that lingers elegantly on the skin.
