Guerlain has launched Fall Flowers, a new floral fragrance in a limited edition collector bottle from the Arita Porcelain Lab in Japan. Fall Flowers follows last year's collaboration with Arita, which featured a porcelain bottle of Guerlain Mitsouko.
Guerlain and Japanese porcelain producer Arita Porcelain Lab have merged their know-how to put a new spin on the 'inverted heart' bottle.
In this special edition inspired by the world of flower markets and named 'Hana Matsuri' which means 'flower festival' in Japanese, the bottle is transformed into porcelain using Arita Porcelain Lab’s unique time-honoured know-how, first mastered in 1804. Renowned for its pure, radiant white, Arita Izumiyama's porcelain has been adorned with a delicate, hand-drawn floral design by the Arita artisans. The rose-shaped cap with gold-accented petals completes the floral theme in a sophisticated finishing touch to this exceptional piece.
Guerlain Perfumers Thierry Wasser and Delphine Jelk have created a large bouquet of freshly picked flowers still wet with dew. An explosion of rose, ylang-ylang, jasmine and orange blossom lifts the spirit and awakens the senses. The white musk base notes give the fragrance a tender, enveloping quality. Escape for a moment to the heart of a flower market.
Guerlain Fall Flowers is available in 100 ml Eau de Parfum; the price is reportedly €650.

Oh my heavens, I don’t even care what the perfume smells like. That bottle!!! It’s even lovelier than the gorgeous Mitsouko one!
Nicer bottle but not my colors? I’d rather have last year’s. And I’d way rather have Mitsouko, I guess? But none of it matters, will never smell it or buy it
On the other hand, it’s a very thoughtful offering for those with money to burn ????
OMG what a beautiful bottle. I hope the perfume is as beautiful as I imagine it. With a name like this it better be!
$762.30 USD?????
Well, it is pretty!!!
It’s a silly price. Monsieur Guerlain points out that you can buy an Arita sake bottle for around $100, so there’s nothing to justify the pricing here.
Excellent, that is useful information for me!
That bottle is AMAZING and Guerlain perfumes tend to do well on me so I’m reasonably certain I’d like the perfume itself, but I do NOT like that price. Yowch. Too bad, so sad.
It’s a lot of pennies.
Beautiful bottle! The description of the perfume does not move me at all. A regular floral, I guess. Anyway, even if it is a good one with that price…..
Doesn’t move me either.
Holy Krakatoa Batman! That’s a beautiful bottle! I don’t even like flowers, but I’d take one of those bottles in a red hot minute????
Oh. My. Goodness. I love it. I have to agree with perfumelover67, though – the description sounds like a run-of-the-mill floral. Money saved!
I much prefer these:
