Guerlain is one of the world's oldest and most prestigious perfume houses, founded on a legacy of excellence and French artistry. Since its inception in the early 19th century, the brand has been synonymous with luxury, having served royal courts across Europe. Its iconic fragrances, such as Shalimar and Mitsouko, helped define the modern perfume industry.
While the brand's heritage is deeply rooted in Paris, its modern operations are handled with a global perspective. The majority of Guerlain's manufacturing remains concentrated in France, particularly at its state-of-the-art facility in Chartres, known as 'La Ruche' (The Beehive). This dedicated site ensures that the high standards of French craftsmanship are maintained across its skincare, makeup, and fragrance lines.
Today, Guerlain is part of the world's leading luxury goods conglomerate, LVMH Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton. Under this ownership, the brand has expanded its global footprint while maintaining its commitment to sustainability and the protection of biodiversity, most notably through its long-standing efforts to preserve bees, which serve as the brand's enduring symbol.
