Chant D'Aromes: created in 1962, the first Guerlain fragrance made specifically for young girls.
Created by Jean-Paul Guerlain who was inspired to create it with an early love of his in mind.
It took more than 450 experiments five Guerlain noses (Jean-Pierre's Jean-Jacques', Jean-Paul's, Marcel's, Raymond's) and seven long years to make Chant d'Aromes an overnight success.
So what does it smell like? It is classified as a floral chypre fragrance for women. Lively, fresh, floral notes, young.

Fragrance Composition:
From Guerlain:
“A century ago lovers were shyer than now, and conveyed their deepest emotions by means of flowers. An orchid clutched in a maiden’s moist hand said, “I await,” while a sprig of holly sent through the mail meant “I’m afraid to approach.” Guerlain has taken the essence of the most eloquent flowers and compressed it into a fragrance. Chant D’Aromes. When there are no words.”
So what does it smell like? It is a crisp, green, mossy chypre perfume with dominant notes of aldehydes, honeysuckle and jasmine.

- Middle notes: jasmine, honeysuckle, clove buds, ylang ylang
- Base notes: benzoin, musk, olibanum, frankincense, vetiver, oakmoss, sandalwood, vanilla, heliotrope
