Guerlain Vol de Nuit EDT W 75 ml

Vol de Nuit is part of Guerlain's Patrimoine Collection. A collection made of emblematic fragrances, composed for more than a century by 5 generations of Perfumers. These mythical pioneer perfumes compose a unique olfactive library, that the Maison Guerlain endeavors to preserve.

A plane takes off from Paris for Buenos Aires. Suddenly, the radio loses contact. A tornado rushes through. Every second takes the recently married pilot a little farther from his loved one...
A homage to Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, whose celebrated novel exalted courage, Vol de Nuit is a perfume of mystery. Brimming with audacity, it is one of the most sophisticated faceted creations. With its assertive personality, its floral and woody facets blossom in a bold oriental trail.

Designed by Raymond Guerlain, its iconic “inverted heart” bottle is underscored with graceful scrolls typical of Art Nouveau. Its avant-garde stopper, in the form of a hollowed heart, evokes the delicate romanticism of this perfumery masterpiece and represented a real technical feat at the time.

Chypre Oriental.
Rare, enigmatic, audacious.

The green galbanum top note is surprising. The cocktail of blended flowers at its heart is like fireworks, where daffodil, violet, carnation, jasmine and rose reveal their assertive and impertinent character. At once a chypre, woody and exotic, Vol de Nuit is absolutely inimitable.
