While the legendary Bains Guerbois has undergone many transformations in its 133 years of life, it began as a temple of beauty and well-being, a renowned spa and bathhouse that played host to Belle Epoque luminaries from Renoir to Proust. 1885 Bains Sulfureux is an evocation of those early glory days, when an open door would release the aromas of thousands of essences of plants, herbs and flowers, carried on the warm steam of those legendary Turkish and Russian baths. After opening with invigorating top notes of juicy mandarin and bergamot, alongside herbaceous rosemary and blackcurrant leaf, a fresh floral heart of orange blossom and jasmine feels as soothingly lush as an infused soaking tub. And a complex, never heavy base of therapeutic essences including tonka, tolu, benzoin and incense enchant and delight, healing the spirit and empowering the body. Refreshing, romantic and complex, 1885 is a magical journey through time and space.
