Mitsouko
Guerlain Mitsouko Eau de Toilette is an earthy, fruity and spiced fragrance with a composed, classic character. Jacques Guerlain first created it in 1919, and it was inspired by the heroine of the romantic novel La Bataille, which gives the scent its sense of post-war Europe.
It opens with a bright citrus lift of bergamot, softened by a juicy peach heart and a floral warmth that moves between white blossom and rose. A dry base anchored by vetiver adds an earthy, woody depth that keeps the sweetness from becoming too soft. Warm, aromatic spices run beneath throughout, so the fragrance unfolds gradually on the skin rather than all at once.
Mitsouko sits moderately close to the skin and is long lasting, so it tends to stay with the wearer through a full day without filling a room. It suits spring, summer, autumn and winter alike, and it moves comfortably from professional settings to casual days and evenings out. It suits a wearer who enjoys a fragrance with depth and a sense of story.
