The story behind the bottle.
Aqua Allegoria Figue-Iris by Guerlain was launched in 2008 and is a proof of the brand's heritage of using luxurious materials. Created by Jean-Paul Guerlain, Marie Salamagne, and Sylvaine Delacourte, this fragrance opens with a bright citrus-aromatic burst from bergamot and grapefruit, which gives way to the velvety texture of fig leaf and iris. The base notes of vanilla and vetiver provide a warm earthy depth, balancing the fresh, green top notes. It is an embodiment of Guerlain's tradition of blending rare and luxurious ingredients.
Apply this fragrance in light sprays — it develops best with skin warmth. The citrus top notes are fleeting, but the iris and vetiver base will linger through the evening. It's perfect for an afternoon or early evening affair.
