I wasn’t interested in last year’s Guerlain Imagine, and this year’s isn’t doing it for me either…maybe you want one? (I’m holding out for 2022’s black bee.) French sculptor Géraldine Gonzalez has decorated the bee bottle with a metallic gold moon, plus a star done up in glass beads (see detail below the jump). 3,665 were made; 125 ml + 30 ml + funnel, €790. They will reportedly be in the US next month, around $880.
If you want more, there’s a one liter version on a light-up mirror base; 64 were made, reportedly €20,000 (shown with the artist, below the jump)…

Guerlain's Shalimar L'Essence, in a 1.65L bottle decorated by Franco-Brazilian artist Janaïna Milheiro and inspired by Frida Kahlo. "Adorned with flowers and feathers, the bottle vibrates with a flamboyant energy, echoing Frida Kahlo’s ‘floral portraits’. It’s an ode to the luxuriant landscapes and captivating soul of the Casa Azul, from which the Mexican artist drew an essential part of her creativity. With infinite meticulousness, Janaïna Milheiro arranges feathers and flowers one by one, infusing the timeless silhouette of Shalimar with an abundance of color. Each bottle is then sublimated by a traditional barbichage, a nod to the ancestral skills of the Guerlain workshops. A masterful fusion of substance and emotion." 66 were made, price unknown (probably if you have to ask...)
