RUBIKONA was made by Cécile Zarokian in Paris. The creation of this perfume started with the word RUBIKONA that combines the deep and warm colour red of a RUBY with the timeless beauty of an ICON.
RU BI KO NA … Four distinct sounds that together form their own small symphony. Much like a perfectly cut RUBY that fascinates by the various shades of red and intensities of light. Puredistance Rubikona is a deep, warming perfume with a gracious, warm heart – safely embedded in deep blue satin. Elegance in every vein, in line with the sophisticated character of Puredistance. Rubikona is ‘Chic Inside Out’.
Bursting with light and heat, Aqua Vitae forte embodies the power of life. This eau de parfum forges the invisible bond between the freshness of the nights to come and the heat of days gone by.
Its top notes radiate a sensation of freshness while a bright, floral and woody breeze floats indulgently throughout this scented dream.
Rise at dawn and escape into the delightful freshness of an early morning in Paris to rediscover a taste for beauty. Stroll through the empty streets and archways of a Paris still cast in the first light of day, before taking a rest. Let yourself be carried away by the luminous energy of litsea cubeba from Indonesia, lemon from Calabria, the floral softness of hawthorn and lavandin from Provence. Then, get lost in a labyrinth of musky and ambery notes.
The quest for an eternal feminine, recognizable quality of major classics, inspired the creation of féminin Pluriel, a grand floral bouquet. A beautiful creation composed of a multitude of facets, designed to evolve with freedom and sensuality, unbound from fleeting fashions.
CITRUS FLORAL
Green souls fall in love in the shade of Citrus trees. Your laughter exhales a song of Yuzu zests and my kisses flutter, white, like petals of Neroli – as they rest on your Grapefruit lips. Red. The pulp of my fingers run along your Jasmine neck, I drink the blue seas of your eyes and the smell of your smiles. There is a heat, a whiff of Vanilla, of two bodies entwined in a shape of White Musks. Hypnotic Lotus and dilated pupils, there comes from my fingers like a moan of Geranium, a desire to taste you like a sip of Orange juice. Green. I waft towards you on the wings of your skin-of-clouds. “Words do not lie”. There is no end to me.
This is a blue planet, juicy like an Orange whence Lotus and Orange Blossom spring like seaspray. A haze of White Musks and tropics of Neroli shape a continent of Vanilla deserts.
“The Earth is blue like an Orange”
This is the perfume of Love.
CITRUS
The tangy flavor of the grape and the freshness of neroli vibrate precious resins sweet and woody notes. A scent of sun and earth, by Jeanne-Marie Faugier.
Beyond evoking Grande Champagne, Earth Sarmiento recalls its resins whose use is rooted in the distant past, we already planted vines in the morning of the world…
For the first time, an almond scent for men composed by Guerlain around three accords
The intelligence of a sparkling and perfectly fresh top note: citrus, rosemary, orange blossom
The beauty of an incredibly sensual “amaretto” heart note based on an almond/tonka bean duo.
The strength of a woody leather base note, definitely masculine: Indian vetiver, cedar and leather given a contemporary interpretation.
The ideal man is a myth. His fragrance, a reality. Guerlain decodes men’s aspirations and creates for them a concentrate of ideal.
The ideal fragrance ? Smart, handsome, strong. Three adjectives, three accords for this fresh woody fragrance that will trigger your full potential
The ideal bottle? Masculine, luxurious and distinguished…
A mysterious pack, a graphic, black and white object, a flashcode as a door to a digital universe.
The bottle – square, facetted and streamlined, luxurious. Radical matte black lacquer side faces. A decidedly masculine, heavy cap that is also matte and borrows its guilloché detailing from the world of watchmaking.
As a 30th anniversary tribute to Terracotta, and for the very first time, Guerlain’s in-house perfumer Thierry Wasser interprets the legendary powder as a fragrance – a sun-soaked invitation to explore faraway lands. An irresistibly sensual composition, exotic and luminous, inspired by the radiant realm of Terracotta.
The fragrance’s intricate harmony opens on captivatingly fresh notes of bergamot, before developing into a heart of tiaré flower and ylang ylang. One of Guerlain’s emblematic ingredients, ylang ylang infuses scents with its warmth. Its sweet, sensual signature finally reveals a delicious vanilla-tinged dry-down.

FRAGRANCE NOTES
Kilian Hennessy's Inspiration: Imagine a Grecian villa, in the midst of the summer, surrounded by the endless blue of the Aegean Sea. Open windows allow a constant flow of fresh air, as the white linen curtains dance to the rhythm of the wind. The fresh air carries with it the scent of the Mediterranean flowers and in the background the aquatic smell of the sea.
The Perfume: For the warmer season, KILIAN PARIS crafts its newest variation, Good girl gone Bad by KILIAN EAU FRAÎCHE, adding a cool and aquatic olfactive touch to the original perfume Good girl gone Bad by KILIAN. Somewhere between floral and airy, it is the season’s nectar keeping summer bees busy. The perfume opens with notes of luminous Orange Blossom from North Africa and Roses from Turkey and Morocco but in its heart this new blend comes true: Egyptian Jasmine Sambac is splashed with a watery uplift and the ever-voluptuous Tuberose that is gentler by a textured sensation of freshness.
Perfume notes: Watery jasmin, Tuberose and Musc
Perfumer: Alberto Morillas.
