About this fragrance

Written from the structured record above — note pyramid, accord weights, perfumer credit and era.

Kadine is a 1911 Guerlain floral composed by Jacques Guerlain, built on a heart of heliotrope and bergamot that opens onto a base of violet, iris, and vanilla. The result is a powdery, warm-spicy profile where violet and iris dominate, softened by vanilla and lifted by the subtle citrus of bergamot. This is not a fresh floral but a dense, old-fashioned bouquet that feels like scented powder and dried petals.

Collectors of early Guerlain will find Kadine a fascinating snapshot of Jacques Guerlain's pre-war style, before the house moved toward the more famous orientals. It suits those who appreciate powdery vintage florals with a spicy warmth, and it wears best in cool weather or evening settings. The violet-iris-vanilla base gives it a soft, slightly melancholic elegance that feels intimate rather than grand. If you collect turn-of-the-century florals or want to experience an early Guerlain composition, Kadine is a rare and rewarding find.

中文簡介

Kadine 係 1911 年由 Jacques Guerlain 調配嘅 Guerlain 花香香水,以天芥菜同佛手柑為核心,基調係紫羅蘭、鳶尾同雲呢拿。整體散發粉感同溫暖辛香,紫羅蘭同鳶尾主導,雲呢拿令香氣更柔滑,佛手柑帶嚟一絲柑橘清新。呢隻唔係清新花香,而係濃郁、懷舊嘅花束,似香粉同乾花瓣嘅氣味。

適合鍾情早期 Guerlain 嘅收藏家,尤其係喜歡粉感復古花香、帶辛香暖意嘅人。最佳使用時機係涼爽天氣或夜晚,氣質幽雅帶點憂鬱,適合親密場合。如果你收藏世紀初花香或想體驗早期 Guerlain 風格,Kadine 係難得嘅選擇。
