Initially launched in 2004 as a limited edition, Vétiver Pour Elle will be included this fall in the Guerlain collection called Les Parisiennes. How could it be otherwise? Jean-Paul Guerlain's female friends after having adopted his original Vétiver, which he composed in 1959 when he was just 18, were begging him to offer a feminine twist on the classic fragrance.

We already know that the answer would be "no" and a zero-tolerance policy in France where perfume decanting would be considered illegal. Are the USA more lax about it? Should buyers seriously worry that they might be considered as engaging in an illegal activity? Are the sellers themselves fully aware of possible legal consequences in the US? For our part, we sent a request for clarification to Patty Geissler of The Perfumed Court a couple of weeks ago around the time of their Grand Opening, which was left unanswered.....
