WHAT IT IS
From the L'Art & La Matiere Collection. The crowning jewel of Guerlain Fine Perfumery, L’Art & La Matiere is a collection of olfactory masterpieces for true lovers of all things beautiful. The House of Guerlain shapes the most aromatic raw materials to create daring fragrances with talent and passion.
With Santal Pao Rosa, sandalwood essence is bottled in excess. This creative endeavor evokes the art of Giuseppe Penone, who led the Arte Povera movement. His work takes the form of installations and sculptures comprising scented and organic woods. Harvested mainly in Australia and distilled on-site, sandalwood is distinguished by its woody, creamy note. The tree takes fifteen years to reach the required maturity to yield its essence. In Santal Pao Rosa, the woody note of sandalwood is underpinned by fig and hazelnut tones. Taking inspiration from the Guerlain heritage Square Bottle (1870) and made by Pochet du Courval - historic glassmakers of the House - the L’Art & La Matiere bottle is an exceptional object whose design exudes unisex sophistication steeped in modernity. Made in France.
