Guerlain's Imagine (the 2019 fragrance that was a redo of 2011's London) in a collector bottle for Holiday 2022. "For its 2022 Millesime, L’Atelier Truscelli imagined a sumptuous bee-shaped gold-plated jewel, handset with more than 150 sparkling crystals and trimmed with a trail of shining stars. // The orange blossom note carries all the way to the stars a trail whose luminous softness contrasts with its magical intensity, blending precious sandalwood with delicious benzoin resin." Limited edition, 3960 were made, $650 for 145 ml Eau de Parfum at Guerlain. (And if you have even more pennies to spare, the Advent Calendar is in stock for $690.) Update: see comments, perhaps this is unrelated to 2011/2019 London / Imagine.
Beautiful! 🥰 But So. Much. Money!
Yep.
I have one on reserve 😳
Wonderful! It really is an exquisite bottle.
How did I guess?
Donatella is very pleased with your perfumed enthusiasm! 🤣🤣🤣
Ahhh I hope it is just as beautiful in person!
Looking forward to the owls’ reactions. 🙂
😂😂😂
Surprise, surprise. 😊
The original London perfume is one I’d love to track down for a decent price. But I’m a little confused at this mentioning an orange blossom note and even more so the sandalwood and benzoin. Are they talking about a different perfume? Heh
OH, you’re so right. Maybe they are reusing the name, I don’t know.
It is actually filled with 190 Ans edp, not the London re-issue.
Thanks so much, cazaubon!
I will always love the bee bottles but can never pull the trigger! Oh one day. Same with the advent calendar, it looks amazing!
Noooooo not an advent calendaaaaaar!!!!…Ok, at least it’s not as appealing to me as last year’s (which I never managed to pull the trigger on) so maybe I’m safe. For now.
I did get last years edition.This looks exactly the same, the items listed on the website are identical to what I got. Plus it’s more expensive.
Not that I’d get a second one but offering the same treats is a little disappointing. Mix it up Guerlain!
Looking closer they’ve added Cherry Oud to the mini bottle mix, that’s new. But the soaps, candles, skin care, ceramics, bracelet and most of the perfumes are the same. A different patterned lid doesn’t make it new in my opinion.
They also added Musc Outreblanc.
Doesn’t look like this year’s has the adorable bees, though :-/
Neither did last years. That was just the fancy photo ☹️
Plain white hive with gold ribbon.
NO BEES…Boo.
Oh no!!!! Good to know; I would’ve been terribly disappointed. They were the things I loved most about last year’s calendar!
Despite the name on the bottle, the perfume inside is actually 190 Ans edp, not the London re-issue. Hence the discrepancy with the listed notes. I can’t understand why Guerlain chose to re-use the name of a recent perfume for a totally different juice.
Thank you!!! I am so sorry for my error. I did not think they would re-use a name so soon.
It boggles the mind!
It’s asinine really.
