Idylle is Thierry Wasser’s first fragrance as the in-house perfumer of Guerlain. This fragrance is entirely different from the classic scents of Guerlain. Idylle is all about the young. It’s a contemporary interpretation of Guerlinade, according to the perfume house. It is actually a combination of white musk and patchouli Translating it to a perfumista’s lingo, it’s simply a department store fragrance. Having said that, does that make Idylle inferior to Guerlain’s range of classy perfumes?
