The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2016, Aqua Allegoria Pera Granita by Guerlain is a Floral Fruity fragrance for women, crafted by perfumer Thierry Wasser. This composition opens with vibrant citrus notes of grapefruit and lemon, giving way to the sweet and refreshing essence of pear. The heart blends orange blossom and osmanthus with the sparkling freshness of Hedione, creating an aromatic and floral bouquet. The base notes of white musk, cedar, and moss provide a subtle earthiness that grounds the overall composition.

How to wear it

This fragrance blooms best close to the skin, so apply it directly to pulse points for an intimate scent experience. The citrus top notes fade within two hours, but the floral heart and musky base continue to linger throughout the day.
