“An intense version of the original Eau de Toilette, the GUERLAIN Aqua Allegoria Forte Mandarine Basilic Eau de Parfum is a sweet citrus fragrance with added depth.” - Keavy, Escentual Beauty Team.
Why You’ll Love GUERLAIN Forte Mandarine Basilic:

- A richer and longer-lasting version of the Eau de Toilette.
- Intense edition that lasts for around six to eight hours.

- The bottle is made with at least 15% recycled glass.
What Does Forte Mandarine Basilic Smell Like?
Forte Mandarine Basilic by GUERLAIN smells exactly like real-life mandarin fruit, which you can put down to the fact that the formula is made using 90% natural origin ingredients. The Eau de Parfum opens with a burst of juicy sun-soaked mandarin, which is met by a cosy creamy vanilla note that provides a sweet richness. As the Eau de Parfum settles on the skin, it fades into a comforting woody base.
Top note is Mandarin.
Heart note is Vanilla.
Base note is Cedarwood.
Why It’s Escentual:
If you already love the original Mandarine Basilic Eau de Toilette, you’ll adore the Eau de Parfum version. It has everything you love about the original scent, but with added power and increased longevity. It loses the airy dewiness of the Eau de Toilette to offer a deeper and all together more sensual version compared to the original.
GUERLAIN perfumer, Thierry Wasser, has designed the Aqua Allegoria collection in order for the scents to be layered together, so you can create a new scent by mixing and matching your collection. If you already own the Eau de Toilette, we recommend layering it alongside Forte Mandarine Basilic to create an even longer-lasting and more complex citrus scent.
The Best Way To Use It:
Spray onto your pulse points - the neck and wrists.
The Sustainable Side:
The bottle is made using at least 15% recycled glass. You can also recycle the glass bottle when it’s empty or purchase a refill.
