Description
Idylle was created by Guerlain for mainstream distribution, introduced in September 2009. It was created by Thierry Wasser and it is the first fragrance he created in his position as the successor of Jean-Paul Guerlain. This is how Wasser describes this beautiful floral perfume:
"It started with a rose. The rose was a blend of Bulgarian roses, the 2008 harvest being fruity, with overtones of raspberry and litchee. To this blend was added the Plessis Robinson rose, created by Jean-Paul Guerlain out of love for the past �¢ï¿½ï¿½ an old rose with fruity accents and a pungent fragrance. This, in turn, was mingled with a chypre harmony, emblematic of Guerlain, composed of patchouli and white musk, selected for its warmth. And lastly came the bouquet that complemented the roses to perfection: lily-of-the-valley, lilac, peony, freesia and jasmine. And so the fragrance was born: a shower of flowers, of petals, of subtle yet incisive freshness, balanced by sensuality. A nectar of flowers, an ode to life and love, in the warm light of radiant jasmine and the darker warmth of chypre, to express an ambiguity of feeling, and musk, like the scent of cashmere on the skin, a comfortable, intimate, physical sensation. In this combination of the personal, sensual, emotional facet of chypre, and the physical aspect of musk, and the declaration of love with the bouquet of flowers, the inexpressible idea was expressed, tender and ethereal, sensuous and romantic, fleeting and eternal."
This information was taken from the Guerlain web site. The bottles to the right were Elixir Charnel. The sales staff was in tuxedos and the idea was to sneak a photo without being asked to leave. This shot was taken with the camera hanging at the hip with the flash turned off. I did not want to get thrown out of another fancy establishment, like the Guerlain shop. Zoom works well.
Thanks for stopping by, taking a look and for all your previous favs and comments. They are very much appreciated.

A nice little stash for Andrea, and you seem to be getting a reputation for getting thrown out of shops. Well sneaked.

Wow, what risks we take in creating birthday greetings. Glad you weren't challenged, apprehended and incarcerated after clandestinely snapping this fantastic foto, with its stunning focus, reflections, refractions and lighting effects, Dana. And Happy Birthday to Andrea.

LOL, too bad you had to be so furtive! You would think they'd want the advertising your photos would give them. A perfect shot and dedi for Andrea!
