Hello from Deco Dawn. I absolutely love this new fragrance. I received a Free sample from House of Frazer Bournemouth yesterday. On first spray i am delighted, It really does lift the spirits and transports you to hot sunny climes. Fresh citrus, aquatic and sporty. Does not last long so, Very much a Spritzer and regular sprays required throughout the day. Reminds me very much of Clarins eau des Jardines price £36.00 in all major department stores in uk and on ebay and amazon for a lot less. Lovely perfect purchase for your holidays although £52 is imho very expensive for a fragrance that does not have much staying power but its still aThumbs up from me.

Another year, another impulsive, almost blind Aqua Allegoria purchase that I end up regretting. I really have to learn my lesson here, so note to self: it’s not because there’s two or three Aqua Allegorias among my very favourite perfumes that all of them are great and/or work for me, so proceed with more caution and at least get a sample next year, however enticing the note pyramid looks, and however much I like the opening after a quick test in the store….
As for the scent itself: it’s not bad, really, and like I said I do like the opening, which is indeed a little reminiscent of Atelier Cologne’s Pomelo Paradis. Like others have mentioned, I unfortunately get no passion fruit at all, but what is there is pretty nice: pure sweetened grapefruit, powdery in quite a cold way. I’m not exactly falling in love with it at this point, but I like it well enough – it’s like Pomelo Paradis and Pamplelune had a baby, and it turned out fine althouhg not as great as could be hoped. And then the faintly spicy aquatic accord comes in, and it rather ruins the fragrance for me. Both aspects of Passiflora go well together, it’s not weird or anything, but the musky aquatic side of it just really isn’t my thing at all.
So I guess I’ll have to add another Aqua Allegoria to this year’s swap list – who knows, maybe I’ve learned my lesson this time…

I love passionfruit as a fruit as well as a fragrance.
Sadly, I can’t smell passionfruit at all on Passiflora. What I smell is mostly grapefruit from start to the dry down. It’s like you smelling your hand after pilling up orange or grapefruit. It’s citrus y and rather bitter, but I like it.
akuna – :
This one was a pleasant surprise. Its fruity and floral altoghether, yet aquatic in the drydown. Its fresh and makes one in a good mood. I could easily imagine this one as a part of my Collection, but I am downsizing at the moment.
fert – :
I love anything grapefruit-y , this is a perfect pomelo scent. As a matter of fact the opening is very similar to Atelier Cologne Pomelo.
I am very familiar with passion fruit , the fruit, flesh, seeds, flowers, etc ( as I have been to South America many times ). There is no passion fruit here, or anything related to it.
But the scent has a pleasant tropical feeling, it’s citrusy yet soft, no sharpness or sourness, and as a fan of the Allegoria line , I love it. the citrus changes eventually into a non descriptive floral clean scent.
However, knowing that many people criticize the Allegoria concept as weak and not Guerlainish enough , I can easily see those people giving this thumbs down , as yet another common, light, and not unique scent.
For me it’s perfect for summer and a very nice release.Not a must have but lovely.

I only smell lemon and grapefruit! And I love it!! It stays citrusy and just a little bit bitter all the way. Makes me think of tropical, far away lands.
drammatourg – :
I’ve been reading reviews here and other websites after I had bought Passiflora to see what other people think of this scent because I liked it. And now I’m confused.
Many say it’s got lemony/zesty note but on my skin and to my nose it’s a watery ylang-ylang all the way. A spark of orange blossom at first but it disappears quickly. Doesn’t get sour on me but it gets slightly bitter.
A bit meh though, it soothes me and makes me relax. It’s really light and doesn’t have much longevity, more of a body spray for me.
I like to wear it before going to bed.
kgt849speagoessenda – :
The known Guerlain lover I am, this one is not the best at all. It’s a very fruity concoction even detecting a hint of mint in it. It reminds of Hawaiian Tropical punch you drank as a kid. I find it very weak with its performance. Longevity is bad, as is sillage. It’s more on the lines of wearing a body mist or splash. I totally disagree with another review comparing the performance to Rosa Pop. Rosa Pop out shines this fragrance. Everything from Performance to the scent it’s self. I love Guerlain to death, but this one is a huge miss.
wasqsq – :
I love this scent although it’s kinda simple. The passion fruit is really yummy and gives this fresh fragrance sweetness and juiciness. It doesn’t turn sour on me. The sillage is nice (moderate) at first, but in 4 hours the scent is barely there. My favourite passion fruit/passion flower fragrance, but the performance ruins it for me, otherwise I would’ve bought a full bottle.
Palex – :
I’m so disappointed. Like an Escada scent, fermented fruits, aquatic undertones.
gsm450JeomiWogkig – :
A very welcome fresh scent after all those sickly sweet fragrances recently launched by many brands.
This is like you’re thirsty and someone gives you a freshly pressed lemonade with citrus fruits including grapefruit and plenty of passion fruit on the rocks. Yum.
Stays with you a comfortable while, too. Quality is much better overall than the Rosa Pop, Fizz, Flora saga.
Pamplelune is too sour/bitter (harsh) for me, this one is much more balanced. I like it.
Valdus – :
Great top notes, but later it is really sour, lemon & grapefruit, untamed and bold. Heavy stillage and long lasting for a citrus scent.
Werogellnug – :
Lemony, zesty passionfruit, not too sweet. I really like it, and just for it’s sour fruitines.

At very first it is really pleasant: zesty and refreshing but just after few minutes it is becoming annoying. Acuatic passionfruit with too much sour lemon is not what i qoukd like to smell like. You know, passionfruit in some perfumes tends to become sour and if there is lemon inculded then it is not nice. I was really really annoyed by this perfume in the end.
For hot summer it might be good but still for the climate i live in it is not very nice.

Guerlain goes Escada – no more perfumeideas left ??

This is out where I live.
It has tropical and sweet top notes and very fresh watery base notes.
Top notes were really nice. Base notes are bothering me a little bit, because, it smells masculine in base notes.
It has that Aqua Allergoria special feeling to it.
Not bad, but not my favorite Aqua Allegoria either.
