WHAT IT IS
From the L'Art & La Matiere Collection. The crowning jewel of Guerlain Fine Perfumery, L’Art & La Matiere is a collection of olfactory masterpieces for true lovers of all things beautiful. The House of Guerlain shapes the most aromatic raw materials to create daring fragrances with talent and passion.
Cruel Gardenia is a delightful trap. Bewitching and almost hypnotic, the gardenia flower reveals a startling sweetness. The gardenia accord is imbued with ylang-ylang and charmed by enveloping musks. This vaporous aura bestows the fragrance with a tenderness that tugs at the heartstrings. Out of this sensual bodily encounter, the flower emerges deliciously cruel. If it were a poetry collection, The Flowers of Evil by Charles Baudelaire. Taking inspiration from the Guerlain heritage Square Bottle (1870) and made by Pochet du Courval - historic glassmakers of the House - the L’Art & La Matiere bottle is an exceptional object whose design exudes unisex sophistication steeped in modernity. Made in France.
