Guerlain 2021 EDP
L'Initial
Guerlain L'Initial is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2021, created by Thierry Wasser. L'Initial opens with Bergamot, Orange, and Jasmine, settles into a heart of Rose and Iris, and dries down to a base of Musk, Patchouli, Vanilla, and Tonka Bean. Guerlain's L'Initial carries a Favourite verdict, a vanilla-led wear.
This is Guerlain doing what Guerlain does best: creating an elegant, powdery vanilla with a smooth caramel and iris heart. It's a modern take on a classic, a crowd-pleaser for those who appreciate sophistication without being stuffy. The strong opening can be off-putting for some, but the dry-down is pure Guerlain magic.
