About the Set

The Les Bains Guerbois Discovery Set includes samples of nine of the most stunning fragrances from the exceptional French niche fragrance brand Les Bains Guerbois. Each fragrance in the Les Bains Guerbois Eau de Parfum collection represents a specific year, story, or guest of this legendary Parisian destination. The collection features works from perfumers Michel Almairac, Dominique Ropion, Fanny Bal, Bertrand Duchaufour, Jérôme Epinette and Dorothée Piot. The scents are notable not only for their meticulous blends and remarkable quality on skin, but also for their daring compositions, where unexpected ingredients are combined to create impeccably refined and totally original perfumes.

A wild and storied place, Les Bains Guerbois was founded in 1885 by Auguste Guerbois. It began as a luxurious spa, where high society rubbed elbows with artists and writers such as Monet, Renoir and Proust, a period captured in scents 1885 & 1900. In 1978, it morphed into Les Bains Douches, a world-renowned nightclub with a guest list including David Bowie, Iman, Mick Jagger, Grace Jones, and Prince; 1978, 1979, 1986, and 1992 are all tributes to this decadent period. In 2015, Les Bains transformed (again!) into a chic 5-star boutique hotel, club, and spa. This most recent period of transformation is captured in 2013, 2015, and 2018.
