The daily lemming

Posted by Robin on 24 October 2017 10 Comments

Guerlain's Winter Délice Candle: "A warm break by the fireside during long and cold winter evenings. Nostalgic memories of the gourmet aromas of gingerbread and candied fruits. Comfort from the crackling fire, refreshed by the green notes of pine needles, an evocation of contrasts of this festive season." $86 at Nordstrom.

    I wonder how similar this is to the beloved but discontinued Aqua Allegoria Winter Delice?

    The listed notes aren’t exactly the same, but they both have pine and other Christmasy aromas.

      Yeah, afraid I have no idea. It does sound at least similar, but seems unlikely after all this time that they’d really try to replicate it.

        That would be such a cruel trick to reuse the name but not replicate the scent, but sadly, this isn’t available at my Nordstrom, so I’ll probably never know. Fortunately, I have a decant of the Aqua Allegoria to keep me going

          You can always order it, then return it as long as you don’t destroy the packaging.

    Maybe we will have a surprise launch for Winter Delice perfume for Christmas, it would make sense. I don’t know if the people that work at these companies just don’t have the knowledge of the products that people want and will sell like crazy, or if they just don’t have the guts to do it.
