Let this site be your source for information on antique and vintage Guerlain perfumes. Another goal of this website is to show the present owners of the Guerlain company how much we miss many of the discontinued classics and hopefully, if they see that there is enough interest and demand, they will bring back these fragrances!
I invite you to leave a comment below (for example: of why you liked the fragrance, describe the scent, time period or age you wore it, who gave it to you or on what occasion, what it smelled like to you, how it made you feel, any specific memories, what it reminded you of, maybe a relative wore it, or you remembered seeing the bottle on their vanity table), who knows, perhaps someone from the current Guerlain brand might see it.
If you have any questions, please send all images of your bottle and pertinent information directly to me at cleopatrasboudoir@gmail.com. I will try to assist you the best I can.

The bottle is adorned with an ivory label and matching ribbon tied around the neck.

From Guerlain's website:
"More than a tradition, it is a real appointment Guerlain proposes each year to celebrate the merry month of May: a new limited and numbered edition of Muguet.
For this 2014 vintage Guerlain Paris, invites ceramic designer Brigitte Bazelaire, to express her talent, creativity and expertise around the iconic Bees bottle. Artist, poetic and refined creations, she revisits the delicate strands of Muguet in a lovely bisque bottle holder, drawing the contours and playing with a pure and pristine white reliefs. To achieve these pieces of incredible finesse, it is associated with the Porcelain Factory. In their workshops, porcelain of the highest quality is shaped and baked using traditional techniques passed down from generation to generation. The bisque bottle holder appears as the ceramist had imagined, fruit of the mysterious alchemy of earth, water and fire.
Muguet is part of the Exclusive Collections, fragrances for enthusiasts of rare perfumes, sensitive to noble materials and refined details. It is a piece of Exception and available in France exclusively at Guerlain Boutiques Paris."

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Guerlain-Chamade-Perfume-Bottle-Holder-Display-rare-has-some-left-1-5-in-bottle-/321233228706?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item4acafe13a2
Le Sucrier de Madame c1980 - 2008?
Le Sucrier de Madame (Madam's Sugar Shaker/Muffineer) was made for express usage in the Guerlain boutiques to demonstrate the eau de toilettes. Sometimes they were often given as "rewards" to those who spent an exorbitant amount of money in the French boutiques.
The cases are of gilded brass and the domed tops are intricately pierced in a filigree pattern featuring the Guerlain G logo, hearkening back to the ornate muffineers of the 19th century. The bottle was designed by jeweler Robert Gossen.
Each bottle holds 200ml/6.7 oz of eau de toilette or 2.8 oz Parfum. I have seen these marked Chamade, Shalimar, Parure, Nahema, Chant D'Aromes, Chamade, Apres l'Ondee, Mitsouko, L'Heure Bleue, Vol de Nuit, Samsara and Jicky. Others are not marked with a name. Each case held a bottle that when emptied, a new refill could be recharged into the case.
In 2008, a Guerlain SA told a member of beaute-test.com that the manufacturer of the Sucrier flacons had just passed away and the flacons would be discontinued as he was the sole manufacturer. Whether not this is true, please let me know.

Guerlain Goutte Flacon Miniatures
The first Goutte mini bottles appeared in 1970 and were used until 1991. The bottles have undergone many changes (silkscreen uppercase, lowercase, different order ...) so to differentiate their years of creation, they were assigned a code. G8 bottles were for export to Japan, the G10 bottles were for U.S. exports.

In awe of this quiet, intimate moment with vanilla flowers Guerlain set out to capture a second of eternity, etching its blossoms on the Shalimar bottle for two limited editions. The vanilla blossom on the voluptuous neck of the bottle underscores the perfume’s intensity, then appears in a precious, radiant hallmark - first in midnight blue on the glass of the bottle, then in gold on the packaging which shields its mysterious blossoming from observation".Only the bottles are different, the fragrance is unchanged.

Slender arabesques unfurl their delicate volutes over the bottle and box. They are inspired by the motifs on the rings worn by Indian women on every occasion, along with the embroidery admired on the shimmering colours of ceremonial saris. A blue silk thread is wound around the neck of the bottle, holding the famous golden "signet" engraved with the double G."

For this limited edition, Guerlain decided to have the bottle itself made up of a sapphire blue crystal and the stopper clear crystal, instead of the reverse. I am unsure of the bottle's manufacturer, but it is not a Baccarat flacon.
The box is flocked midnight blue instead of the lavender hue that we associate with Shalimar boxes.
It stands 4" tall. Has a clear label on base "Guerlain Bottle made in France", also has contents information on a secondary label.
