In-Depth Summary
Pierre-François-Pascal Guerlain created Eau de Cologne Impériale for Empress Eugénie in 1853. The royal commission helped establish Guerlain at the imperial court, while the fragrance itself remains a brisk citrus eau de cologne accented by orange blossom, lavender, and aromatic woods. The Extra Dry variant offers a crisper, lighter interpretation of the classic formula.
