Songe d’un bois d’été by Guerlain The magnificent Les Exclusifs de Guerlain collection was expanded in 2013 with a series of three bottles paying tribute to the Middle East, named Les Déserts d’Orient.
Laurel, camphoraceous and spicy, occupies the top with neroli, floral and tangy: the camphor and spice on one side, the flower and acidity on the other.
Patchouli, earthy and damp, saffron, leathery and tarry, and jasmine, warm and sweet, share the heart, each on its own material.
Leather, smoky and tobacco-like, accompanies myrrh in the base, balsamic and dark: the smoke of the former sits alongside the dark balsam of the latter.
