Guaria Morada: The new Berdoues perfume. Perfumery is meant to enhance an outfit and accentuate the personality of the person wearing a fragrance. Yes, but not only that. With a simple breath, it is also capable of transporting us to the other side of the world and letting our imagination wander.
Every year, the house of Berdoues unveils a new perfume to enrich its Grands Crus collection. Of course, 2020 was no exception to the rule. This time, the Berdoues essence is called Guaria Morada, referring to one of the most beautiful orchids of Costa Rica. In terms of scent, the perfume Guaria Morada owes its existence to perfumer Mylène Alran. Of course, vanilla orchid is omnipresent, accompanied here by other flowers, warm woods and numerous fruity notes of pear or citrus. As always, Guaria Morada comes in Berdoues’s timeless bottle. Let us take a closer look at its bottle.
The iconic rectangular bottle of the Grands Crus by Berdoues
To better understand the origin of this bottle, let us start by introducing the Grands Crus collection by Berdoues. Each of the perfumes making up this collection is inspired by the Eaux de Cologne of the past. Indeed, for a very long time, men and women only wore this type of perfume. They are thus the beginnings of our current perfumery and are perfectly accepted in the collective unconscious. Here, the Grands Crus by Berdoues simply add more longevity to them, while incorporating prestigious ingredients, perfumed raw materials of the highest quality. To evoke this timeless and ancestral aspect of Eaux de Cologne, the Grands Crus by Berdoues needed bottles capable of standing the test of time without ever aging. Thus, they feature a clean bottle, free of anything superfluous. Their rectangular shape, with a solid base, gives them an undeniable presence. A transparent glass base is here topped with a small opaque black cap. Playing on contrasts, this container nevertheless displays perfect harmony. A white label, very elegant, is also placed on the front of this bottle. In a very couture style, it allows itself no excess. More than ever, Guaria Morada by Berdoues relies on sobriety, which gives it a universal and utterly timeless aura.
Berdoues immerses us in a lush forest
On the other hand, it should be noted that all the bottles of the Grands Crus by Berdoues allow themselves a small touch of originality. Their back is covered with a pattern, often very colorful, which is reflected in their transparent juice. Here, Berdoues chose to evoke all the beauty and vibrancy of a lush forest, hundreds of which exist in Costa Rica. Many green and pale pink leaves decorate the back of this bottle, while a few pink flowers, much more vivid, stand out from the whole. In reality, the choice of these flowers is not insignificant. It is the famous Guaria Morada, emblem of Costa Rica. This orchid is one of the most famous in the country. Known for its lovely purple color, it is also considered a true good luck charm. The Guaria Morada is not only the name of this perfume. It is also one of the major ingredients in its composition. Thus, between the Berdoues bottle and the essence it contains, the harmony is perfect!
