Absolus Allegoria, the absolute fragrance collection, is an enchanting and mysterious journey to the heart of the world’s wonders once night falls: fragrance trails celebrating deep and powerful nature, revealed by striking contrasts in the moonlight.
Discover Ambre Samar, a highly contrasting perfume that depicts the magic of a red moonlit night. Dark and mysterious wreaths of frankincense and ambergris are illuminated by a flamboyant amber accord with sensual vanilla and honey accents. A chiaroscuro creation, inspired by the spectacular light that bursts forth from the darkness during a lunar eclipse.
« Ambre Samar is a homage to the flamboyant light that illuminates Nature during a night of a red moon. A chiaroscuro amber perfume that radiates sensuality. » - Delphine Jelk, Guerlain Perfume Creation Director & Perfumer
