Paris 1978, another endless night at one of the craziest clubs in the world. Follow the powdery scent. Downstairs, Negroni Yuzu for her and Whisky Sage for me. Ribbons of tobacco smoke weave their magic. Leaning against the cedar wood bar, I watch her move on the dance floor. Notes of myrrh, vanilla, patchouli, and oriental rose hit me. Even though I close my eyes for a moment, Bains Douches never sleeps.

About the brand Les Bains Guerbois

Welcome to the fascinating world of Les Bains Guerbois - a perfume brand that tells stories of a thousand (and one) nights. Nights spent not just anywhere, but at 7 Rue du Bourg l'Abbé, a place that has been on the map of Paris since 1885, first functioning as elegant baths used by Monet, Renoir, Zola, and Proust; later a legendary nightclub where David Bowie, Prince, Grace Jones, and Vanessa Paradis regularly partied, and where Joy Division played their only concert in France; and finally as a five-star boutique hotel. Ready material for a movie. Or, better yet, for scents.

Les Bains Guerbois fragrances are eclectic, dazzling, dreamy, and magnetic. Full of extraordinary life that each of us would probably like to taste at least once. They are created by the most outstanding perfumers: Dominique Ropion, Fanny Bal, Jérôme Epinette, and Bertrand Duchaufour. (We imagine they have a lot of fun doing it).

The collection is divided into two lines: Une date, une histoire, which refers to specific events located in time (hence the year in the name), and Formes et Matières, which pays tribute to the shapes, patterns, and textures found at 7 Rue du Bourg l'Abbé.
