| Guerlain | Aqua Allegoria Flora Salvaggia Eau de Toilette |
Inspired by a spring meadow in full bloom, the new Floral Salvaggia (wildflower) opens on a note of sweet melon that gets engulfed by the intoxicating combination of iris, jasmine, and violet. I'm not sure I get the "wildflower" vibe from this one but the scent is nevertheless a beautiful warm floral that's perfect for spring and summer! The sillage and longevity are moderate at best but as I always say, I'm not too bothered when it comes to re-applying a beautiful scent.
Top Notes: Orange Blossom, Watermelon, Bergamot
Heart Notes: Jasmine Sambac, Wildflowers
Base Notes: Violet, Iris, White Musk

| Guerlain | Aqua Allegoria Nettare di Sole Eau de Toilette |
Solar Nectar, or Nettare di Sole, is described as "a honeyed bouquet assembled by the greatest flowers in fragrance". Opening on a refreshing note of citrus, this scent combines notes of magnolia, rose, and jasmine sambac with a hint of honey. The smell is sweet but not sickly, reminding me of a warm summer stroll in the garden. The sillage and longevity are both weak but the scent is alluring and unique enough that I would still recommend it to those looking for a sweet summer floral.
Top Notes: Calabrian Bergamot, Aquatic Notes, Orange Blossom
Heart Notes: Magnolia, Rose, Jasmine Sambac
Base Notes: Honey
