Aqua Allegoria Forte Nerolia Vetiver

Nature is an inexhaustible source of inspiration, and it is at the heart of it that Guerlain's perfumers draw their countless ideas. It is therefore only natural that Guerlain decided to pay tribute to the world's most beautiful gardens, in a collection named Aqua Allegoria. Within this olfactory assemblage, raw materials are elevated and appear as dreamlike, bucolic poems. In 2023, a newcomer joins this collection: Aqua Allegoria Forte Nerolia Vetiver.

Where to buy

Aqua Allegoria Forte Nerolia Vetiver, welcome to Italy!

Aqua Allegoria Forte Nerolia Vetiver unveils a new postcard of lush beauty. This time, the scene takes place off the Bay of Naples, on the island of Ischia. Spared from mass tourism, it is highly favored by Neapolitans for its greenery and thermal springs. Authentic and bathed in sunlight, it is a place where light reigns supreme and where a typically Mediterranean art of living prevails. It is therefore this entire emotion that is found in Guerlain's Aqua Allegoria Forte Nerolia Vetiver.

Aqua Allegoria Forte Nerolia Vetiver, a floral and woody fragrance

Aqua Allegoria Forte Nerolia Vetiver is a creation made of 95% ingredients of natural origin. Composed by Thierry Wasser and Delphine Jelk, it is a juice bathed in light, showcasing the green and floral breath of neroli. This is first paired with a sparkling bergamot. Then, petitgrain brings a livelier, zestier breath. In a spirit typical of the Mediterranean, Aqua Allegoria Forte Nerolia Vetiver is enriched with a green note of basil. As if crushed in the hand, it is aromatic and anise-like. To soften the whole, a gourmand and fruity fig accord joins this recipe. Rose amplifies its elegance. Finally, woods occupy a large place in its base notes. Aqua Allegoria Forte Nerolia Vetiver by Guerlain contains, more precisely, cedar, vetiver and tonka bean.

Guerlain's legendary Bee Bottle

Like all Aqua Allegorias, Nerolia Vetiver comes in a modern reinterpretation of Guerlain's legendary Bee Bottle. Imagined for the very first time in 1853, it has been transformed into a more contemporary version. Topped with a bee engraved at its summit, it is immediately recognizable thanks to its golden mesh dome forming honeycomb cells. Every Aqua Allegoria bottle is identical. Only the color of the juice changes. For Aqua Allegoria Forte Nerolia Vetiver, it is a pastel green that perfectly echoes the lush nature of the island of Ischia and a beautiful summer day. Another novelty: since 2002, Guerlain's bottles have been refillable. They are made of 15% recycled glass and are entirely manufactured and assembled in France. Aqua Allegoria Forte Nerolia Vetiver comes in two sizes, in 125 ml and 75 ml spray bottles.
