Guerlain Un Air de Samsara is an Eau de Toilette launched in 1995, created by Jean-Paul Guerlain. Un Air de Samsara opens with Bergamot, Lemon, and Mint, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Iris, and Narcissus, and dries down to a base of Green and Mysore Sandalwood. Guerlain's Un Air de Samsara carries an Acquired verdict, a yellow floral-led wear.

A fascinating 'fresher' take on a classic, Un Air de Samsara is a love-it-or-hate-it affair thanks to its polarising mint opening. Still, those who love it, love it deeply, hailing it as a sadly missed gem for warm weather wear.

About

Opens with an exhilarating burst of green mint and sharp citrus, tempered by bright bergamot. The freshness then gives way to a sophisticated floral heart of creamy narcissus and sweet jasmine, underpinned by a smooth, rich Mysore sandalwood base. It's an oriental-green hybrid that's both invigorating and deeply comforting.
