Tabac Sahara joined Guerlain’s Absolus Allegoria in January 2026. Delphine Jelk, the house’s director of olfactory creation, sets the smoky wreaths of tobacco against a tangy raspberry accord, over the warmth of an ambergris accord: the image of a desert of pink dunes under the stars. The Allegoria bottle takes on a violet tint for it.
The emblematic bottle of the Allegoria collection, made in France with 15% recycled glass and tinted a violet that evokes the dunes under the stars.
Tabac Sahara comes in the emblematic bottle of the Allegoria collection, made in France with 15% recycled glass. It takes on an enigmatic violet tint for this fragrance, which, according to the house, recalls the dunes by starlight.
Its spray unscrews and its glass carries a transparent lacquer: two choices that Guerlain presents as intended to make recycling easier. The bottle comes in 75 and 125 ml and can be engraved.
