Samsara by Guerlain Perfume. Samsara was launched in 1989 by the design house of Jean Paul Guerlain for women who wanted an ultra-sophisticated fragrance to set the mood for romance. Enliven your senses with notes of tarragon, bergamot and jasmine. Embrace your feminine side with hints of carnation and vanilla. It is recommended for use before any romantic encounter, yet this womanly scent is soft enough to be worn on a daily basis to revel in the beauty of being a woman.
