For the 160th anniversary of the iconic bee bottle and the legendary Eau de Cologne Impériale, Guerlain released a truly monumental deluxe edition that celebrates its enduring heritage. The centerpiece is a one-litre golden bee bottle, elevated to a work of art by French artist Lison de Caunes, who adorned it with intricate straw marquetry, a painstakingly precise technique reminiscent of Art Deco craftsmanship. The straw inlay creates delicate, shimmering patterns across the surface, imbuing the bottle with both warmth and elegance, while the gilded golden hue emphasizes its regal presence.
The accompanying presentation box continues this artistry, entirely covered in matching straw marquetry and emblazoned with Guerlain’s revived Sun King logo, evoking the opulence of France’s royal perfume heritage. Each detail of this edition reflects the skill and care of artisanal French craftsmanship, transforming the bottle into a collector’s treasure rather than just a container for fragrance. Limited to thirty-two numbered pieces worldwide, this edition serves as both a tribute to Guerlain’s historical mastery and a tangible celebration of its 160-year legacy in perfumery.
