Les Bains Guerbois - 1978 Les Bains Douches

1978 Les Bains Douches by Les Bains Guerbois is a daring and intoxicating Oriental Floral fragrance designed for both women and men. Launched in 2018, this scent captures the glamour, excess, and electric energy of the legendary Les Bains Douches nightclub, where the most iconic figures of music, fashion, and art came together in a whirlwind of hedonism and avant-garde creativity.

Created by master perfumer Bertrand Duchaufour, 1978 Les Bains Douches is an olfactory tribute to the club’s golden era, where the air was thick with sensual florals, smoldering spices, and a decadent Oriental warmth that lingered through the night.

The fragrance opens with a luminous burst of floral notes, their powdery elegance contrasted by a spicy, slightly smoky intrigue. The heart is a dance of intoxicating white florals, warm resins, and rich balsamic undertones, mirroring the pulsating rhythm of music echoing through dimly lit corridors. As the scent evolves, it settles into a seductive base of amber, musk, and creamy woods, leaving a trail of nocturnal mystery and effortless sophistication.

With its bold, hypnotic, and irresistibly glamorous character, 1978 Les Bains Douches is perfect for those who love intense, vintage-inspired Oriental Florals with a modern edge. Ideal for evening wear, extravagant nights out, and moments of unapologetic self-expression, this fragrance embodies the seductive chaos, raw energy, and unforgettable allure of Parisian nightlife in its most iconic era.
