Founded in 1828 by Pierre-Francois Pascal Guerlain control of the house was past down through the family until 1994 when it was sold to the luxury good conglomerate Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton (LVMH) as there was no one in the Guerlain family willing to head the business.

More than a perfumer Guerlain was also the first to combine science with skincare and was the first to sell eyeliner, mascara and lipsticks.

The quality and enduring nature of these early fragrances is clear in the fact that most of these scents can still be found in one form or another today.
