And now, it comes in a roller-pearl packaging so you can easily touch up on-the-go.
The new edition still features the quartet of carla lavender, sambac jasmine, vanilla tahitensis and Australian sandalwood but now joined with an original duo of raw materials cherished by the Guerlain perfumer: neroli and Bulgarian rose for added freshness and feminity.

As its name suggests, this scent is created to reflect the turn of the seasons and welcome a newfound warmth.
