GUERLAIN Apres L'Ondee

"If you love powdery fragrances, you'll swoon over GUERLAIN Apres L'Ondee Eau de Toilette; it will transport you to the heart of a meadow as it dries out in the sun after a storm." - Hannah, Escentual Beauty Team.   Why You'll Love GUERLAIN Apres L'Ondee: Powdery-floral fragrance with a subtle, timeless feel. Fresh and delicate Eau de Toilette. Part of the GUERLAIN Legendary fragrance collection. Presented in the iconic GUERLAIN 'inverted heart' flacon.   What Does Apres L'Ondee Smell Like? Created by Jacques Guerlain in 1906, Apres L'Ondee conjures up the image of walking through a dewy meadow on a rainy day as the sun starts to break through. A true celebration of iris and violet, Apres L'Ondee Eau de Toilette has an undeniable powdery tone, but there's also a subtle hint of spice that lingers in the background, thanks to the note of anise (also known as aniseed). Finally, the fragrance is gently warmed through with a soft and sensual touch of vanilla. Top notes are Anise, Cassia. Heart notes are Carnation, Violet. Base notes are Iris, Vanilla.   Why It's Escentual: The story behind Apres L'Ondee really makes this classic powdery perfume come to life. Translating from the French to mean 'after the rain', the fragrance is an ode to fresh dewy flowers that are flooded with light as the sun breaks through the clouds after a storm - it really does smell like rain in a meadow as you breathe it in. Many GUERLAIN fragrances have strong correlations to works of art and, if it were a painting, Apres L'Ondee would be a watercolour that features a swirl of subtle pastel colours. It really is a masterpiece.   The Best Way To Use It: Spritz onto your pulse points, focusing on the neck and wrists. For maximum scent longevity, apply after showering and moisturising the skin.
