Bloom of Rose, the latest Mon Guerlain of 2017: for five generations now, Guerlain has been marking the history of perfumery with creations that are ever more luxurious and masterfully orchestrated.
Rose in the perfume Mon Guerlain
Mon Guerlain is a perfume that came into being in 2017, as a tribute to the fabulous history of Guerlain and to the five generations of perfumers who have succeeded one another at the head of this perfumery empire. Bringing together prestigious raw materials, Mon Guerlain immediately became one of the most acclaimed fragrances on the planet. Evoking lived and shared emotions through a typically Provençal scent, it has since spread its refinement to the four corners of the globe. In this context, Guerlain decided to reinterpret it and to incorporate one of the stars of women's perfumery: rose. Thus was born the new Mon Guerlain Bloom of Rose.
Rose as the central element of Mon Guerlain Bloom of Rose
Initially, Guerlain had made Carla lavender the centerpiece of Mon Guerlain. Yet this time it seems that this Mediterranean plant has given way to one of the stars of perfumery: rose. Of the Bulgarian type, it brings absolute femininity to this composition here. Its refinement floods this perfume and makes it one of the noblest fragrances in women's perfumery today. Bulgarian rose here gives off a fruity scent, as if delicately refreshed with lemon. Its freshness is intoxicating, preserving all the dynamism and vivacity of the woman who wears this essence.
The other flowers making up Guerlain's bouquet
In parallel, Mon Guerlain Bloom of Rose unfolds all its romanticism in an enormous bouquet of flowers, composed of other ingredients that here serve to enhance the full dimension of the rose. Of course, Carla lavender is still present. Among the best varieties in the world, it here gives off a Mediterranean breath, fresh and aromatic. It is then relayed by two other, more sun-kissed and opulent flowers. Jasmine gives off a warm, sensual and sweet breath, while neroli relies more on a suave, citrus scent.
The warm/cold contrast contained in Mon Guerlain Bloom of Rose
Finally, let us also note that Mon Guerlain Bloom of Rose draws all its complexity from a play of oppositions. It first surges forward on an intense sensation of freshness coming from the citrus. Then, over time, it warms up. It resembles the beginning of a budding relationship, at first lively and intriguing, then gradually becoming warmer. At its base, Mon Guerlain Bloom of Rose rests on an exotic blend of vanilla and sandalwood. Vanilla here develops more syrupy and fleshy base notes. Sandalwood, for its part, appears milkier and creamier. It rounds out the whole of this formula and plunges this enormous bouquet of flowers into a cottony cloud as tender as a caress.
