Guerlain Tonka Imperiale

Product details

Guerlain’s Tonka Imp©riale is more than just a perfume; it’s an olfactory journey through the opulent halls of the Second Empire. Launched in 2010 as part of the esteemed L’Art & La Mati¨re collection, this fragrance is a masterpiece crafted by the renowned perfumer, Thierry Wasser.

Evoking the grandeur of a bygone era, Tonka Imp©riale captures the essence of wealth, artistry, and indulgence. Imagine the gilded salons, the velvet drapes heavy with perfume, and the clinking of champagne flutes €“ Tonka Imp©riale is the scent of it all.

The star of the show is, of course, the tonka bean. This intoxicating ingredient lends warmth and sweetness to the fragrance, with its nuances of almond, vanilla, and rum. But Tonka Imp©riale is far from a simple gourmand.

Wasser expertly balances the tonka’s sweetness with a touch of bitterness. The opening notes of bergamot and orange blossom add a touch of citrusy freshness, while a heart of iris and rose provides a floral counterpoint. The base, anchored in benzoin, sandalwood, and tobacco, adds depth and sensuality, leaving a trail that lingers long after the last note fades.

Tonka Imp©riale is a fragrance for those who appreciate luxury and sophistication. It’s a scent that makes a statement, announcing your presence with confidence and grace. Whether you’re gracing a red carpet or simply enjoying a night out, Tonka Imp©riale will ensure you turn heads and leave a lasting impression.
