  [COLOR=0000FF] Lovely!!!!!  So I'm wondering if this is the same scent as the 'Aqua Allegoria - Teazzurra Fragrance???  I hope s o because I love that so much!!!!!  So excited to hear your thoughts [/COLOR]:pompom:
Thanks! I've never smelled the Teazzura, but it sounds lovely! I have to get into the guerlain fragrances more. I'm hearing so many great things about them.

Thanks for the great pics ladies!

Maybe it's my screen, but it looks like the 2 colours alternate between a pink-toned bronzer and a more yellow/brown one, perhaps aiming to neutralize and be more universally flattering...I think I will wait for it to be released here. Looking forward to some good swatches.

Though the product appears beautiful, for 80 dollars, you'd think guerlain would have provided better packaging for the Terracotta Terre d'ete. I'm insulted by the ticket price and the cheap packaging!

I didn't think it was anything special when I saw it either. I much prefer my regular Terracotta and 4-Seasons over this one because I can get the shade I want. I have two of the wooden LE versions as well (2013 and 2014) and the packaging on those is much nicer than this year's. It was a very easy skip.

Anyone knows what's happening with the other bronzer, the one in the wooden case, I think it had beehives on it? Or did I dream that one, hahaha?

I vaguely remember that one Anitacska but there was something off-putting about the product design that some of us chatted about---was there a building or something weird on it? Gosh that seems like it was so long ago. Hopefully someone here with a better memory than mine can help us out.

Yes---almost sounds more like a beauty powder.

They seemed to digress with their summer packaging all together---those various colored silicone frisbee disks and now this. Maybe they're playing to a different
audience or something

I love the regular Terracotta and 4-Seasons too---especially the 4-Seasons compact--it's just stunning. They spoiled us with the gorgeous wooden compacts----they don't
seem to be able to keep up that momentum but they're totally ruining it. I dislike the packaging of the duo powder but I LOVE the product.

I have not purchased a Guerlain Bronzer yet (I have only one bronzer and only last year started buying some highlighters) and this packaging is really disappointing compared to previous releases I have seen online, a lot of beauty bloggers take awesome pics of their Guerlain bronzer collections and they look so glamorous and luxurious. I hope they revert to the old style in future.

I couldn't even find one swatch online, am very curious!

Yes MissTania----it's quite a departure.

That makes sense---I don't imagine that building on our product is something we could necessarily get passionate about

I never got any of their summer LE bronzers.

I like to stick to their permanent stuff like 4 season. Great quality great packaging.

I might have a closer look at these. I worry a bit about the age of the stock at the Counter though, I rarely see more than one customer there at a time, if any!

They are attempting to draw in the younger people. They did a market study about 2 years ago. It was brought forth this brand is for mature ladies, at least in the eyes of a younger target range that was polled. For any company to survive they need to broaden their target range. Yet, not lose the customers they already have. It is a challenge whether it is food, clothes, makeup, etc.
