About this fragrance

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

Voilette de Madame is a rare 1901 Guerlain floral that opens with a distinctive bouquet of violet, ylang-ylang, iris, sandalwood, and narcissus. This top-note composition is unusual for its era, blending powdery violet and iris with the creamy yellow floralcy of ylang-ylang and narcissus, while sandalwood adds a woody anchor from the start. The result is a soft, powdery, and woody violet scent with a pronounced yellow floral facet.

Collectors of vintage Guerlain will appreciate this early example of the house's floral craftsmanship. The powdery and woody accords dominate, making it a comforting yet elegant choice for those who enjoy classic violet and iris perfumes. It suits wearers who prefer subtle, old-fashioned florals with a touch of woodiness, ideal for daytime or formal occasions. Given its age, surviving bottles are precious, and the scent offers a glimpse into Edwardian perfumery.

中文簡介

Voilette de Madame 是嬌蘭 1901 年的花香之作,以紫羅蘭、依蘭、鳶尾、檀香與水仙構成的前調揭開序幕。粉質的紫羅蘭與鳶尾交織依蘭和水仙的黃花香,檀香則從開場便提供木質底蘊,整體呈現柔和粉感與木質紫羅蘭的風貌。

這款香氣適合鍾情古典粉質花香的行家,尤其喜愛紫羅蘭與鳶尾者。氣質優雅內斂,適合日間或正式場合。由於年代久遠,留存至今的瓶裝彌足珍貴,是窺探愛德華時代香氛藝術的難得機會。
