Is Aqua Allegoria Herba Fresca discontinued?+−
Herba Fresca has been part of Guerlain's Aqua Allegoria lineup since 1999, though like several entries in the line, its availability has varied by market over the years. It's worth checking current Guerlain stockists directly, as some older Aqua Allegorias come and go from regular rotation.
How long does it actually last on skin?+−
Expect roughly a few hours of noticeable wear before it fades significantly. Projection is soft even from the start — this is a close-to-skin fragrance that functions more like a scented layer than a traditional sillage-heavy perfume. The Aqua Allegoria line generally leans this way, and Herba Fresca is on the lighter end even within that family.
Is this fragrance unisex, or does it skew feminine?+−
It skews feminine on paper but wears as fairly unisex in practice. The mint, green tea, and clover give it a clean, herbal character that reads neutral on most people. The floral base — lily of the valley and cyclamen — is soft enough not to push it strongly in either direction, making it a comfortable wear for anyone who gravitates toward fresh greens.
