Aqua Allegoria Nettare Di Sole, a novelty with the scent of spring at Guerlain
More modern and avant-garde than his elders, he does not hesitate to reinvent the most famous Guerlain essences to bring them up to date. However, Thierry Wasser does not forget the rich heritage of the brand either. As proof, the collection of Aqua Allegoria takes us back to a past era and evokes the scent of the Eau de Cologne of yesteryear. Today, this collection is still enriched by a newcomer. Guerlain decides to put down his suitcases in Sicily and takes us to the Mediterranean. Its Aqua Allegoria Orange Soleia scent is a very sunny escape!
The Aqua Allegoria, getaways in gardens around the world
Orange Soleia is from the Aqua Allegoria collection. Thus, like each of them, it is inspired by the freshness of Eaux de Cologne, while modernizing them and offering them more character and persistence. In addition, all of Guerlain's Aqua Allegoria have one other point in common: they are all inspired by a particular garden, emblematic of a region of the globe. In turn, the Aqua Allegoria took us to Venezuela, India, Spain and even to the other side of the Indian Ocean. This time, the atmosphere is quite different. The journey takes place in the heart of the Mediterranean: in a vast field of Sicilian citrus fruits.
Aqua Allegoria Orange Soleia, citrus freshness comes to Sicily
Aqua Allegoria Orange Soleia transports us to the southern tip of Italy in a snap of seconds, from its first breath. It offers us a sunny but refreshing escape in the heart of a citrus field. Its incisive start, rich in blood orange and bergamot, is enough to plunge us into the heart of Sicily. In addition, as if to evoke the indomitable temperament of Mediterranean women, Aqua Allegoria Orange Soleia is also loaded with spices, and more particularly pink pepper. Its heart, meanwhile, remains just as fresh but becomes more minty. Little by little, the atmosphere warms up in contact with the tonka bean and the woods. Finally, Aqua Allegoria Orange Soleia ends with a more sensual and animal note of musk.
The return of the Guerlain Bee Bottle
Like all of Guerlain's Aqua Allegoria perfumes, Orange Soleia is wrapped in a bottle directly inspired by the iconic Bee Flask. As a reminder, this is a prestigious glass container, which first saw the light in 1853 for the Eau de Cologne Impériale, intended for the Empress Eugenie. Here, its cylindrical shape is preserved. Its transparent glass lets us glimpse an orange-colored juice. The whole is surmounted by a finely chiseled honeycomb dome, covered with a shimmering golden lacquer. Aqua Allegoria Orange Soleia plays with light and displays a solar side, both in its scent and in its visual.
