Guerlain commits to the bee, sentinel of the environment

EXTENDING THE EXCEPTIONAL WITH THE CREAM REFILL

The refill of The Cream is nestled in the heart of a refillable jar hand-crafted by maison Bernardaud, a french porcelain manufacturer since 1863.

After more than fifteen years’ research, the Orchidarium® and Guerlain research are revealing Orchidée Impériale Black The Cream, a Guerlain skincare masterpiece. At its heart is encapsulated the power of the Black Orchid¹. Native to Peru, it adapts to its environment to optimize its survival, embodying a talisman against time. It has given rise to BlackImmune™ technology, a revolutionary approach to the skin’s self-defense.

Each application helps the skin better withstand internal and external stresses. Protected, it can concentrate on its rejuvenation to fight against all the visible signs of aging. The Cream helps minimize wrinkles, refine the skin texture and lend definition to facial contours, leaving the skin feeling firmer and suppler as well as looking radiant.

THE BLACKIMMUNE™ TECHNOLOGY: A REVOLUTIONARY APPROACH TO SKIN SELF-DEFENSE

The Black Orchid gives birth to BlackImmune™ technology, a revolutionary approach to skin's self-defense. Each application, the skin becomes stronger and more resistant to external aggressions. Continuously protected, skin can thus devote all its resources to its rejuvenation, for skin that is more beautiful and younger-looking, for longer.

The Cream succeeds in the prowess of conciliating high-efficacy and high-sensorial experience thanks to its fine and generous formula that wraps the skin in a luxurious cocoon of protection. Made with ingredients with different fusion points, it offers a soft balm touch that triggers a cascade of melting sensations upon application.

A RARE, POWERFUL, ENDURING ORCHID

Native to the peruvian Andes, the Black Orchid¹ is an ebony-coloured wild orchid. It has the rare distinction of flowering only two weeks a year, and – even more remarkably – bearing male and female flowers on the same plants. An invaluable quality that allows it – through an in-depth understanding of its environment – to adapt its metabolism by establishing an ongoing symbiosis with its ecosystem. In the face of dangers, excess sun or a lack of light, for example, it responds by producing more male flowers, thus encouraging the fertilisation of female flowers and, as a result, more fruit. It intelligently conserves its energy and optimises its longevity, embodying a real talisman against time.
