The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2004, Aqua Allegoria Anisia Bella by Guerlain is a Aromatic Green fragrance for both women and men, crafted by perfumer Aurélien Guichard. This composition opens with a bright anise note that cuts through the freshness of citrus, creating a crisp and invigorating top layer. The heart brings in soft florals and powdery accords, balancing the spiciness with warmth. The base settles into green and aromatic notes, maintaining a subtle depth that keeps the fragrance intriguing throughout the day.

How to wear it

Apply lightly to pulse points; the anise top notes are bright but dissipate quickly. The green and aromatic base unfolds over time, so give it at least an hour to fully settle on your skin.
