The latest potential drain on your wallet from Guerlain (and another collaboration with Maison Matisse): Couleur Bonheur, a modern fruity chypre celebrating the 170th anniversary of the bee bottle and La Musique, a 1939 painting by Henri Matisse. "The first movement, an allegro vivace, features the yellow of bergamot with crystalline tones. The second movement, an allegro espressivo, offers the velvety orange of an apricot accord blended with the brightness of rose. The third movement, an allegro andante, showcases the deep purple of iris contrasted with the white of a leather accord." In 1L Extrait de Parfum, 14 hand painted bottles were made, if you have to ask the price you can't afford it.

Another crafting project for us, after painting red dots onto our Louis Vuitton perfumes the other day we get to move on to green leaves. Thanks, Robin.
It’s good to keep busy 🖌️🎨
What’s the price?🤣🤣😉
Yeah exactly.
Much as I love Matisse, I think application of paint in his style is a desecration of the beauty of the glass bee bottle.
I have to say that I appreciate the idea but don’t think this is at all gorgeous…especially in comparison with some of the LE bottles they’ve done recently.
I like the aesthetics; however, I’m in the How Much camp 🤣
If they only made 14, that tells you how many people they think can afford one.
