Fève Gourmande by Guerlain (2 ml decant)

Fève Gourmande is the new name for Gourmand Coquin.

"A symbol of gourmet delight, the cocoa accord reveals chocolate notes that are equally sweet and bitter. Fève Gourmande plays on this contrast, moving from gourmandise to the point of excess. This loss of olfactory reference points creates a delectably surrealist cocoa.

Floral and majestic rose shakes up the cocoa accord, heady with rum and spice notes. At the base, the woody elegance of patchouli warmed by the heat of smoky tea adds mystery to the chocolatey notes, revealing a new sensuality.

Cocoa is olfactively expressed in the form of an accord, composed by the perfumer. This accord with chocolatey, and delicately bitter notes gives the perfume a sensory, gourmand feel.

Between the gourmet pleasure of chocolate, the vertigo of rum notes and the refinement of rose, the cocoa note tips into an alternative reality.

“If it were a painting, it would be a surrealist work by Salvador Dalí.”

Fève Gourmande distorts the vision of gourmandise and transforms the cocoa accord into an incredibly addictive delight, like a surrealist painting by Salvador Dalí in which reality and dream combine, defying all logic."

Taking inspiration from the Guerlain heritage Square Bottle (1870), the L’Art & La Matière bottle is an exceptional object. Made by Pochet du Courval – the House’s historic glassmaker – it is endlessly refillable at selected Guerlain Boutiques.

"Normally associated with childhood, cocoa reveals a new maturity. In Fève Gourmande, it is singularly blended with the depth of a smoky tea accord and the luminous elegance of rose." - Delphine Jelk, Guerlain Perfumer.
