From its inception in 1828 to 1994, the House of Guerlain was owned and managed by members of the Guerlain family. Louis Vuitton, part of the LVMH group, purchased it in 1994.
Henri Matisse, the quintessential “painter of happiness” and a sublime master of color, was one of the twentieth century’s greatest artists. Guerlain is collaborating with Maison Matisse, which was founded by one of the painter’s great-grandsons, Jean-Matthieu Matisse, to celebrate the art of happiness with an exceptional piece and precious limited-edition series inspired by Matisse’s palette.

Guerlain invites Maison Matisse to celebrate the art of happiness with a tribute to the master of colors in two creations inspired by two of the artist’s paintings that become full-fledged artworks.
“We are extremely grateful that Maison Matisse has placed its trust in us for these new creations. “Our collaboration is founded on shared values of excellence, exacting standards, and elegance, as well as a shared love of beauty, nature, and art,” says Ann-Caroline Prazan, Guerlain Director of Art, Culture, and Heritage.
Each Exceptional Piece by Guerlain x Maison Matisse is the result of unparalleled savoir-faire, entirely hand-painted with the utmost care. Countless hours were spent selecting the six colors that were closest to Matisse’s “La Musique” palette, then refining their mattness and depth. The Bee Bottle is transformed into a one-of-a-kind work of art: a true collector’s item for the modern era.
The worldwide limited edition is limited to 1,000 copies. The Figue Azure scented candle, evoking a stroll in the shade of Mediterranean fig trees, is also available in a limited edition of 500 pieces worldwide.
