Age-defying serum: What It Does
After more than 15 years’ research, the Orchidarium and Guerlain Research are revealing Orchidée Impériale Black The Symbioserum, a Guerlain skincare masterpiece. The extraordinary power of the Black Orchid (1) is encapsulated at its heart. Native to Peru, it adapts to its environment to optimize its survival, embodying a talisman against time. It has given rise to BlackImmune technology. Overconcentrated (2) in the Symbioserum, BlackImmune technology is enriched with a symbiotic complex (3) that is a first for Guerlain, to help skin to protect itself against aging (4). Skin can thus devote all its resources to its regeneration, for skin that is more beautiful and younger-looking, for longer – as if shielded from the visible signs of aging. The Symbioserum nestles at the heart of a refillable porcelain bottle hand-crafted by Maison Bernardaud. Established in 1863 in Limoges, this prestigious family-owned manufacture has epitomized the excellence of French porcelain for over 150 years.

Key Ingredients: A rare and precious raw ingredient, the Orchid is the quintessence of the Orchidée Impériale's exceptional complete care range. A real wonder of longevity, the orchid is the most developed species in the plant kingdom. Convinced of its exceptional potential, Guerlain established its first-ever research center devoted to a single ingredient: the Orchidarium. The mission of this International Research Centre on the Orchid and skin longevity is to discover, understand, study and explore the potential of orchids and their biological and cosmetic properties to benefit its research on skin longevity. A RARE, POWERFUL AND INVINCIBLE ORCHID Native to the Peruvian Andes (1), the Black Orchid (2) is an ebony-colored wild orchid. It has the rare distinction of flowering only once a year, unlike other varieties that flower for two to three months, and – even more remarkably – bearing male and female flowers on the same plants. An invaluable quality that allows it – through an in-depth understanding of its environment – to adapt its metabolism by establishing an ongoing symbiosis with its ecosystem. In the face of dangers, excess sun or a lack of light, for example, it responds by producing more male flowers, thus encouraging the fertilization of female flowers and, as a result, more fruit. It intelligently conserves its energy and optimizes its longevity, embodying a real talisman against time. (1) Sourced from Guerlain’s network (2) Cultivated Black Orchid Application Tips
