Beauty and Fashion Dubai

Candid and poetic, with a fleeting presence that makes it all the more precious… Each year, Muguet by  Guerlain blossoms anew on May 1st.

Since 2006, this event within the Exclusive Collections has given the Maison Guerlain an opportunity to celebrate spring and strengthen its bonds with the art world. Every year, one of the most prestigious artisans and “Maîtres d’art” (master craftsmen) of France is invited to create a unique adornment for the good-luck flower, one that fully expresses his or her talent and exceptional know-how.

This year, Guerlain celebrates a traditional French artisanal skill, the art of porcelain, and chooses Brigitte de Bazelaire, a talented Parisian ceramic artist, to express her creativity around the iconic Bee bottle. Known for her luminous creations inspired by nature and steeped in extreme refinement, this artist dreamed up a bottle holder with carefree, springtime charm for the 2014 Vintage. It is made of immaculate white porcelain biscuit decorated with a raised pattern of delicate lily of the valley sprigs.

To produce this delicate and fine masterpiece, Brigitte de Bazelaire worked with Les Porcelaines de la Fabrique.
This porcelain manufacturer, based in Limoges and founded in 1825, is renowned for the excellence of its creations, made with traditional techniques passed down from one generation to the next.
The Bee bottle, adorned by the “dames de table” craftswomen with a white label and an elegant white  grosgrain bow, is presented with its bottle holder in a luxurious white paper box embossed with the iconic Guerlain bees.
THE OLFACTORY PORTRAIT OF A GOOD-LUCK FLOWER
While its presentation is reinterpreted year after year by the guest artists, the scent of Muguet by Guerlain has remained unchanged since 2006. This olfactory portrait is also based on a poetic vision backed by skilled expertise.

The scent of lily of the valley is impossible to extract. The perfumer succeeds in conveying its touching fragrance by blending the fine quality of rose with the opulence of jasmine in a showcase of delicate green notes. A hint of lilac underlines the freshness of this dew-swept bouquet…
Muguet expresses all the cheerful tenderness of a spring landscape.
