L'Heure Bleue or 'the bluish hour' was created by Jacques Guerlain in 1912. The fragrance is velvety soft and romantic, it is a fragrance of bluish dusk and anticipation of night, before the first stars appear in the sky. The top notes are opening with spicy-sweet aniseed and fresh bergamot that gently lead to the heart of rose, carnation, tuberose, violet, and neroli. The soft and powdery floral notes are resting on a base of vanilla, Tonka bean, iris and benzoin. The perfume is mysterious, elegant and timeless. It was created by Raymond Guerlain. The bottle is shaped like the one of Mitsouko and the stopper is shaped like a hollow heart that alludes to romantic pre-war years.

L'Heure Bleue was launched in 1912.

There must be something wrong with the plumbing in my nose because I tried this at the Guerlain counter based on Luca Turin's review in his book and I felt like I had been punched in the face by an old lady from old money. It was that overpowering. I will have to swing by the counter and give it another sniff (and this time wait for the dry down), because my first impression was: this stuff stinks to the high heavens.

Very romantic, so haunting. A true classic, and one of the best things about it is that not many women wear this. This is an "old money" scent.
It always makes me feel special - and men love this one.
