Since 1828, Guerlain - an iconic luxury French Perfume & Cosmetics brand, part of the LVMH Group - has explored, innovated and perfected its Fragrance, Skincare and Makeup thanks to its daring creators of mythical creations with timeless know-how. All with Nature and Art as inspiration and the Culture of Beauty as a signature.

In Fragrance, Guerlain Master Perfumer, Thierry Wasser, embodies the fifth generation of Guerlain Perfumers. As a figure within the contemporary fragrance world, Thierry Wasser has put his name to many of the House’s creations. He contributes to an olfactory legacy of some 1100 fragrances and explores the world in search of the most exclusive raw materials. In Makeup, newly appointed Guerlain Creative Director of Makeup, Violette, seemed destined to join the house synonymous with French beauty and constant innovation.

With her creativity, Parisian chic and eye for high standards, she knows better than anyone else that makeup is nothing if not the art of bringing out the beauty in each and every one of us.

The House is committed to preserving biodiversity, innovating sustainably, acting for the climate and creating a positive social impact. Above all, Guerlain seeks to protect one of Nature’s most precious wonders: bees, sentinels of the environment and symbol of the House.
