So, pack your bags quickly: we are heading together to Central America!

What is the Guaria Morada?

Before anything else, let us start by unveiling the name of this perfume. Guaria Morada is a name with a very Spanish sound, the language spoken in Costa Rica. There, the soil is particularly rich and the vegetation is very lush. Indeed, Costa Rica is one of the leading tourist destinations for nature lovers! As proof, there are no fewer than 1400 different orchid species within this country. Among them, the Guaria Morada was chosen as the emblem of the nation in 1939. This purple orchid stands out for its beauty and is traditionally given during Costa Rican celebrations. Legend has it that it is a good luck charm, a token of luck and good fortune. It is precisely to this plant that the Berdoues perfume refers.

Guaria Morada, a floral and refined fragrance

Guaria Morada is a perfume from the prestigious Grands Crus collection by Berdoues. Now, each of the fragrances making up this collection evokes the world of Eaux de Cologne. In this sense, it is a nod to the history of perfumery. Indeed, for a very long time, men and women only wore Eaux de Cologne. Here, their DNA is reinvented with more modernity and tenacity. The result is authentic perfumes, with a long maceration, which gives them more character. Like all perfumes in the Grands Crus collection by Berdoues, Guaria Morada contains only highly refined and prestigious raw materials.
Presented in a bottle common to all the Grands Crus by Berdoues, Guaria Morada is revealed in a translucent glass rectangle, whose back is decorated with a pattern. Here, the chosen theme is very floral. The Guaria Morada bottle is decorated with pink and green touches. Inside this container lies an essence created by perfumer Mylène Alran. Guaria Morada first unfolds an extreme sensation of freshness, through the presence of orange. Then, this tangy citrus is relayed by amyris, a more resinous floral plant. Finally, its penetrating and lingering scent ends with a woodier breath of patchouli. Welcome to the lush forest of Costa Rica!
