Launched in 2023, Aqua Allegoria Forte Oud Yuzu by Guerlain is a composition that contrasts the vibrant brightness of yuzu with the rich depth of oud. Perfumer Delphine Jelk has crafted this scent to evoke a sense of freshness and warmth simultaneously. The top note of yuzu brings an invigorating citrus zest, while the heart of agarwood (oud) adds a smoky, woody complexity that lingers on the skin.

Application Tips
Apply this fragrance in light layers; the yuzu top note is bright but fleeting. The oud base will develop on your skin over time, so one or two sprays are enough to capture its full complexity without overpowering.
