The 2026 Millésime exudes Rouge Bonheur, an Eau de Parfum exclusive to this rendezvous. A perfect balance between spicy freshness, floral notes, and woody depth, it embodies the very essence of the spirit of the Chinese New Year. Initially captivating with its tangy notes of pepper and ginger, the fragrance then reveals a floral heart combining rose and magnolia, before unveiling comforting notes of cedar and white musk.
This year, the Bee Bottle celebrates the spectacular union of its emblematic bee and the ardent sign of the Fire Horse. An untamed animal evoking momentum, energy, and audacity, the horse is also the astrological embodiment of the tireless quest for success. This hero of legends thus crosses the landscapes of the Chinese imagination, mane blowing in the wind, always in motion. To emphasize the symbolic significance of the piece, the bottle, a Guerlain immutable icon born in 1853 and still made by Pochet du Courval, is dressed in a scarlet red robe, a lucky color in China.
For this celebration, the slender stature of the bottle is adorned with a majestic horse's head, gilded with 24-carat gold and delicately set with 78 Swarovski crystals. Born from the talented pencil strokes of Francesco Truscelli, this animal of ink and paper comes to life thanks to the ancestral know-how of Gonthiez Frères. This precious composition combines an almond-cut crystal to represent the animal's eye, with 77 round crystals cascading along its mane, thus allowing the nobility of the materials and the precision of the jeweler's gesture to be fully expressed.
Virtuoso in the art of transforming and bringing a new lease of life to the jewellery of yesteryear, the Italian-born jeweller, an emotion creator, and a bespoke specialist, forges ties between family generations. His talent led him to establish his own workshop in 2003: L’Atelier Truscelli. He shares a deep attachment to know-how and transmission, values also dear to Guerlain. The creative dialogue between Francesco Truscelli and Guerlain, continues unabated.
