Guerlain Heritage eau de toilette for men connects an aromatically fresh opening with a warm spicy character and a rich amber-woody base. The fragrance is described as refined, warm and authentic.

Fragrance and Composition

Héritage belongs among woody-spicy fragrances. It was launched in 1992 and its composition was created by Jean-Paul Guerlain.

• The top notes develop lavender, aldehydes, juniper berries, clary sage, bergamot, lemon, violet, green notes and petitgrain. Lemon, bergamot and lavender hold prominent positions.
• The heart is formed by patchouli, coriander, geranium, carnation, pepper, rose, balsam fir, pink pepper, orris root, jasmine, cyclamen and lily of the valley. The composition emphasises coriander and pink pepper here.
• The base contains sandalwood, amber, oakmoss, cedar and musk. Patchouli transitions into a rich amber-woody finish.
• The Eau de Toilette concentration corresponds to a toilet water.

The published composition features, among others, oils or extracts of patchouli, bergamot, lavender, lemon peel, Virginia juniper, sandalwood and geranium.

You receive a men's fragrance that progresses from aromatic freshness through spice to a warm woody base with amber and patchouli.

Application

The fragrance is applied using a spray. The product is labelled as flammable.

Heritage builds on the Parisian history of the brand and the perfume craft developed across five generations.
