Guerlain has launched three new limited edition "Harvest" versions of fragrances in the Aqua Allegoria series: Harvest Mandarine Basilic, Harvest Nerolia Vetiver and Harvest Rosa Rossa.
Our perfumer-explorers travel the world tirelessly, in search of extraordinary raw materials. For Aqua Allegoria Harvest they have chosen their materials from a selection of very specific, ethical harvests that are unique in the way they reflect exceptional terroirs.
Harvest Mandarine Basilic ~ a variation on 2007's Mandarine Basilic. "Harvested before they are completely ripe, Marzolo mandarins from Calabria (Italy), give Mandarine Basilic Harvest its bitter sweetness, combined with the freshness of basil leaves on a generous bed of green tea and woody base notes."
Harvest Nerolia Vetiver ~ a variation on 2022's Aqua Allegoria Nerolia Vetiver. "A delicious harvest of orange blossom honey from Guerlain's own beehives in Calabria (Italy), gives Nerolia Vetiver Harvest its soft floral notes enveloped in luminously bright neroli and warmed with the woody inflections of vetiver."
Harvest Rosa Rossa ~ a variation on 2018's Rosa Rossa, which was reportedly a reissue of 2017's Rosa Fizz. "With Rosa Rossa Harvest, delicately hand-picked Bulgarian and Turkish roses combine with the freshness of organic rose water from Grasse, enhanced by delicious lychee and blackcurrant accords."
Guerlain Harvest Mandarine Basilic, Harvest Nerolia Vetiver and Harvest Rosa Rossa are available in 125 ml Eau de Toilette, $165 each. In the US, they can be found at Neiman Marcus among others.

I have 2 out of 3 in the regular version and the bottles are still full …
Well, now you can buy the Forte and the Harvest editions and have 9 🙂
I was just at Bergdorf (treated myself to Cuir Beluga, thank you very much) and I had a chance to smell all three of these. I also left with samples of all three of these, lol. They were all so light yet juicy. The name says it all “Aqua”. Lovely and watery. The mandarine is so real, it felt like I had just taken a bite. The vetiver is clean and elegant. And the rose is fresh and classic. I enjoyed them very much. Looking forward to sampling these during the summer months.
PS: Cuir Beluga OMG what a scent.
Are they noticeably different from the original and/or the Fortes?
Sorry, I wish I knew:( I never smelled the original or the Fortes.
I can only speak for Rosa Rossa, that is the only one I tried in three versions.
My favourite is still the original, forte is edp if I am not mistaken, stays longer on the skin and has more depth. The harvest one is edt, smelled very similar to the original with more litchi then rose.
Thank you Hera!
