Guerlain has announced that, staring in June 2008, perfumer Thierry Wasser will be their new in-house designer. Even when he was working for Firmenich, Thierry Wasser had already been responsible for the Guerlain fragrances Iris Ganache and Quand Vient la Pluie. Jean-Paul Guerlain, 71, will stay on in an advisory role, as a counselor to the presidency, for both fragrance design and ingredients. As for Thierry Wasser, he will be working in close collaboration with Sylvaine Delacourte, director of evaluation and of perfume design since 2002. Wasser is best-known as the designer (or co-designer) of hypnôse (Lancôme, 2005) and Dior Addict (Dior, 2002), two scents in which vanilla, the signature note at Guerlain, is preponderant.
