Epices Volees

by Jean-Paul Guerlain

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

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.
