Guerlain - Sniff Fest

...What a fantastic thread :) Well, I will certainly follow your journey to find the perfect Guerlain fragrance, and maybe I can contribute as well. Have you checked out http://www.monsieurguerlain.com/ yet? Not only can you find a much more complete list of all released Guerlain fragrances over there, but also lots of history and reviews of the most important fragrances, as well as reviews of the discontinued ones Monsieur Wasser recreated for the vintage workshop. From what I have read on Monsieur Guerlains blog, most fragrances before Jicky where light citrus based cologne like scents, with just minor differences from one to the other. Part of the reason why, is because no synthetics where invented yet, and so Pierre-Francois Pascal Guerlain could only use more fleeting naturals. So, if you know what Eau de Cologne Impériale smells like, you can get an idea what most scents from the pre Jicky era where like. That's why I would start the search from Jicky onwards. Most of Pierre-Francois Pascal's scents are not available anyway.Personally, I think your to try list is already good as it is, but scents such as Parure, Kadine, Ode, Coque d'Or, Parfum de Champs-Elysees, Voilette de Madame, Djedi, Vega and Sous Le Vent are long discontinued, and the only way to try them is to participate in one of the vintage workshops in Paris.
