Tobacco and honey-two contrasting olfactory notes blend together in Guerlain's Tobacco Honey to create an unexpected and harmonious symphony of scents. This new fragrance defies convention by uniting the earthiness of tobacco with the sweet allure of honey; blurring the boundaries between opposites to create an extraordinary union for Guerlain's high perfumery collection, L'Art & La Matière.
A Transformation Unveiled: From Masculine to Feminine Liberation
The latest addition to the L'Art & La Matière collection is Tobacco Honey. Tobacco, traditionally seen as a masculine note, underwent a profound metamorphosis during the 1920s. The iconic era marked the liberation of women, and tobacco became a potent symbol of their newfound freedom. Guerlain's master perfumer Thierry Wasser notes, In the 1920s, we were seeing flapper girls with their iconic bobbed hairstyles, often with a cigarette holder and smoking-there was sort of an early women's liberation during that time.
This historical context sets the stage for understanding the essence of Tobacco Honey. It's not just a fragrance; it's a piece of history, a scent that embodies the spirit of women breaking free from traditional norms and embracing their independence.
