Après l'Ondée is a contemplative powdery-floral feminine composition — anise and bergamot open onto an ethereal heart of heliotrope, violet and iris, settling onto a soft sandalwood-and-vanilla base. The signature is delicate, melancholy and beautifully crafted in the heritage Guerlain style — evoking the freshness that follows a passing rain shower.
Who it's for
This eau de toilette suits women who love refined French heritage perfumery and classical powdery-floral compositions. Particularly well suited to those drawn to legendary classics with poetic, contemplative character.
