True connoisseurs of perfumery around the world believe that “Mitsuko Guerlain” is one of the few fragrances that has remained popular for almost a hundred years. These are perfumes that attract many women and become their favorites. This perfume has an incredibly beautiful history of creation.
History of creation
Back in 1919, the perfume "Mitsuko Guerlain" was created by the world-famous perfumer Jacques Guerlain and remains in demand to this day. He was the first who, after long experiments, decided to combine natural and synthetic components in a perfume composition.
This fragrance was dedicated to the main character of Claude Ferrer’s novel called “The Battle”. The heroine was forced to wait for the outcome of the battle in the Russo-Japanese war and wait for her husband to return. The battle ended with the spouse dying, and Mitsuko, who could not bear the death of her loved one, committed suicide. She hid her feelings for a long time, and in honor of this, Guerlain decided to give a name to his perfume in honor of her.
Translated from Japanese, “Mitsuko” translates as “secret”, and the fragrance created by the great perfumer fully justifies its name. Indeed, at that time all the aromas were the same and monotonous, and the perfumery composition "Mitsuko Guerlain" contains components that were unknown to the world community.
Fragrance Description
Perfumes belong to the chypre and floral family, and have an incredibly mysterious fragrance that perfumers from around the world could not unravel for many years. The components that make up the perfume do not sound predictable and play in many shades.
"Mitsuko Guerlain" after appearing on the world perfumery market in a matter of weeks won the hearts of girls and women all over the world. It is a refined, luxurious and elegant fragrance that defies explanation. World critics noted that it can not be described as fresh, nor as floral, nor as light, it just needs to be heard and everything immediately falls into place.
Perfume was released almost a hundred years ago, but today does not lose its uniqueness and is one of the most preferred fragrances of girls from the collection of perfumes "Guerlain".
Perfumery composition

They believe that this is a unique fragrance that suits every female and wins the hearts of every man.
Top notes

Bergamot gives freshness to the aroma; it allows it to be light and unobtrusive. Citrus notes make a small bitterness, which only attracts others and allows the fragrance to open better on the skin.
Floral notes of jasmine and roses give the aroma a light sweetness that allows the girl to feel comfortable and emphasizes her femininity. After one or two hours, the top or top notes gradually disappear, and the fragrance begins to take on shades that give it middle notes.
Middle notes

Rose and jasmine do not stop playing in the fragrance after the disappearance of the top notes. They perfectly complement the notes of the heart of perfume and will be heard throughout the day.
Lilac and peach color are the components that give the fragrance incredible softness and tenderness. They perfectly emphasize the femininity of the fragrance and give it a sweet shade. Middle notes are heard only to people around, provided that the perfume "fit" the girl or woman. Such a combination will not be intrusive to others, but it will certainly attract their attention and interest people. Heart notes remain audible on the body for 5-7 hours.
Base notes
The base notes in the Mitsuko Guerlen fragrance, according to reviews, are heard for 3 hours after they replace the middle ones. Base notes are vetiver, cinnamon and oak moss. Adding such an oriental note as cinnamon was a very bold decision of the perfumer, but it is its presence that makes the aroma interesting and mysterious.
Woody notes give the aroma a subtle hue of heaviness, but it is perfectly softened due to the combination with vetiver. The train that perfume leaves behind has an excellent combination of tenderness and rudeness, freshness and sweetness. It is this fragrance that attracts people around and causes a huge interest in it. It stays on the body for a rather long time, and remains on the hair and clothes during the day.
Durability
Reviews about “Mitsuko Guerlain” suggest that this fragrance has excellent durability, but people's opinions differ between persistent and very persistent. Perfume is kept on the body for 8-10 hours, and on the hair and clothing for about a day.
Girls note that under different weather conditions, aroma can change the durability and shades of notes. In the hot summer heat, fresh woody notes that are included in the perfume composition begin to play more vividly. The aroma resistance in the warm season is slightly reduced, but remains quite high - 5-6 hours. It depends on the fact that when exposed to sunlight, perfume molecules evaporate faster and Mitsuko Guerlain perfume disappears from the body.
In cold weather, the fragrance begins to play with oriental warming notes that envelop the owner and surrounding people. Oriental notes are initially more persistent than any other perfume components, and remain on the body much longer. Low temperature allows the fragrance to linger on the body and clothes, thereby increasing its resistance to 8 hours.
