The perfume of harmony
Samsara is part of Guerlain's Legendary fragrance collection. A collection of emblematic fragrances, composed for over a century by 5 generations of perfumers. These mythical pioneer perfumes form a unique perfume library that the House of Guerlain strives to preserve.
Samsara is an elixir of seduction for a woman who has found harmony and balance, which is particularly reflected in the ingredients of the composition: sandalwood and a type of jasmine that until then had only been used for religious offerings.
The iconic "inverted heart" bottle, designed by Georges Chevalier, is accented with graceful curls typical of Art Nouveau. The avant-garde cap, in the shape of a hollowed-out heart, evokes the delicate romance of this perfumery masterpiece and was a true technical marvel at the time.
Woody Oriental.
Harmonious, enchanting, enveloping.
Samsara takes flight and envelops us with jasmine flower, which dominates the fragrance, before sunny ylang-ylang flower embellishes it, to better unite it with the radiant and generous warmth of sandalwood. Finally, iris, tonka bean, and vanilla harmonize this blend and make it sublime with its remarkable trail. Samsara is the first woody women's fragrance in perfumery. It is built with beautifully crafted sandalwood, used in these quantities in perfumery for the first time.
