Hello and welcome! Please understand that this website is not affiliated with Guerlain in any way, it is only a reference site for collectors and those who have enjoyed the classic fragrances of days gone by. All trademarks belong to their respective owners. The main objective of this website is to chronicle the 200+ year old history of the Guerlain fragrances and showcase the bottles and advertising used throughout the years. 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.

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.

Vintage 1930s- Guerlain Perfume Tester Rack Version #2

Vintage late 1930s-early 1940s Guerlain Perfume Tester Rack, looks like it is clear lucite, which would have sat on the counter at the Guerlain boutiques or in the department store where Guerlain perfumes were sold. 

As you can see from the vintage illustration, the most popular Guerlain perfumes were presented:


  • Shalimar
  • Jicky
  • Vol de Nuit
  • Dawamesk
  • Coque D'Or
  • Mitsouko
  • Bouquet de Faunes
  • Geranium D'Espagne
  • A Travers Champs
  • Apres L'Ondee
  • Lavande
  • Rue de la Paix
  • Liu
  • Djedi
  • Vetiver

Curiously, I do not see Sous Le Vent represented...

The bottles are clear glass with glass stoppers with daubers that reach all the way down. Their white labels display the red Marly horse logo.
