Guerlain Parure is an Eau de Toilette launched in 1975, created by Jean-Paul Guerlain. Parure opens with Citrus, Green, Fruity, and Bergamot, settles into a heart of Rose, Jasmine, Orris, and Lily Of The Valley, and dries down to a base of Spicy, Leather, Amber, and Patchouli. Guerlain's Parure carries an Acquired verdict, an earthy-led wear.

This discontinued Guerlain classic is a love-it-or-hate-it chypre. Fans adore its unique, complex character and are desperate for its return, while detractors find it dated or too close to Mitsouko. A true vintage gem, if you can find it.

About

Opens with a refreshing burst of green notes and citruses, quickly deepened by a rich, jammy plum. The heart blossoms with a sophisticated floral bouquet of rose, jasmine, and narcissus, underscored by subtle lilac. The drydown unveils a grounding base of earthy oakmoss, spicy patchouli, rich leather, and warm amber, creating a profound and elegant chypre experience.
