The Guerlain House is one of the oldest, most prestigious, and revered perfume and cosmetics brands in the world. Founded in Paris, its history spans nearly two centuries of high perfumery, innovation, and family tradition.
The Foundation (1828):Pierre-François-Pascal Guerlain, a chemist, perfumer, and inventor, opened his first boutique at number 42 Rue de Rivoli in Paris. It soon became the favorite destination of Parisian high society and elegant travelers thanks to its bespoke fragrances, creams, and soaps.
Court Perfumer (1853): Pierre-François created the Eau de Cologne Impériale as a wedding gift for Empress Eugenie and Emperor Napoleon III. This commission granted Guerlain the coveted title of Official Perfumer to Her Majesty, winning favor from the royal courts of Europe, including Queen Victoria of England and Queen Isabella II of Spain.
Today, the Guerlain House continues to produce perfumes.
