Guerlain Aqua Allegoria Passiflora

Passiflora is the latest addition to Guerlain’s exquisite Aqua Allegoria collection of fragrances which were created way back in 1999.

This sparkling new scent offers a hint of invigorating freshness to the everyday with its beautiful blend of passion fruit and ylang ylang.

Like its predecessors, Passiflora’s charm lies in reinventing naturally compatible accords with a joyful spontaneity, flower blending with fruit and fruit with skin in a delicious wave of fresh fragrance, tender shades and cheerful moods.

 As is the case with each of the 10 scents within the Aqua Allegoria collection, Bergamot is the key note that is present in all and gives the fragrance the intense freshness that Aqua Allegoria have become known for.

The bottle itself mirrors the rest of the collection with the exception of the colour of the nectar within; Passiflora offers a soft pinky-peach hue.

The soft curves of the bottle contrast with the beautiful gold honeycomb detailing around the top and a bee sits delicately engraved within the gold cap as a tribute to the famous Bee bottle.

The fragrance within is absolutely stunning!

Feel yourself being transported to a tropical lagoon with this refreshing and complex fruity-citrus scent.

Top notes of tangy passion fruit and zesty lemon are combined with splashes of bergamot to create an exhilarating and light opening experience.

Heart notes of juicy mandarin juice, grapefruit and aquatic note blend together offering a beautiful freshness before base notes of sensual and smooth ylang ylang and orange blossom round off the unique and captivating scent to perfection.

The combination of the various notes results in a fresh, fruity, fizzy fragrance that bursts with zest and its cool, refreshing tone is just to die for.

I’ve not come across such a light yet exhilarating fragrance before and I am completely and utterly under its divine spell.

Guerlain Aqua Allegoria Passiflora is available now and costs £52.
