Guerlain Meteorites is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2000. Meteorites opens with Green Notes and Iris, settles into a heart of Violet, and dries down to a base of Heliotrope. Guerlain's Meteorites carries a Favourite verdict, a floral-led wear.

This retro violet and iris bomb is undeniably divisive. Some find it a heavenly, nostalgic powder puff, while others recoil, detecting a 'nursing home' quality. It's a love-it-or-hate-it scent that commands attention, for better or worse.

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

A spring fragrance - light, bright, made for the warmer turn of the year.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual Formal
Also Works:
Office

Its soft, powdery floral profile makes it suitable for many settings, particularly dates or more relaxed formal events, where its romantic character can shine. However, its often-reported weaker longevity and intimate sillage mean it won't overwhelm an office, yet higher sillage reports could indicate caution is needed.

About

Meteorites opens with a soft, powdery embrace of iris and green notes, immediately setting a vintage tone. The heart unfurls with a prominent violet, sweet and almost candy-like, reminiscent of Parma Violets. This floral core is deepened by the creamy, almond-like facets of heliotrope, creating a plush, makeup-like aroma that lingers with a gentle, slightly vanilla-tinged sweetness.
