About This Perfume
Think chilled berry-rose spritz with soft musk: that is Guerlain Aqua Allegoria Rosa Rossa. It opens with lychee, mandarin orange and blackcurrant, moves into rose, peony and plum and settles on white musk, benzoin and sandalwood. It leans feminine, though anyone can wear it.
This eau de toilette is best in spring and summer and is a daytime scent. Reach for it for casual days and the office. Released in 2018.
Wearers report that it lasts roughly a working morning or afternoon, and projects to about arm's length.
Is it right for you?
- Best for: anyone after something fresh and uplifting for casual days.
- Sample first if: floral is new territory for you.
- Skip if: you dislike fresh fragrances.
Around $70.

The picks up close
Picture powdery rose cream with sweet vanilla for Mon Guerlain (Eau de Parfum, 2017); lavender and bergamot up top and Tahitian vanilla, Australian sandalwood and benzoin underneath. Shalimar Eau de Parfum (Eau de Parfum, 1990) feels like powdery citrus, warm incense, creamy vanilla, with bergamot and lemon first and incense, vanilla and leather at the base. Imagine sweet pear jam, spicy florals, creamy vanilla when you spray Angélique Noire (2005), starting with angelica and pear before vanilla and cedar take over.
