Ingredients
The Orchid, a rare and precious raw ingredient, is the very essence of the exceptional complete care range Orchid?e Imp?riale. A genuine longevity prodigy, the orchid is the most developed species in the plant kingdom. Convinced of its exceptional potential, Guerlain set up its first research centre ever to be devoted to an ingredient: the Orchidarium?. The aim of this international research centre dedicated to the Orchid and skin longevity is to uncover, understand, study and explore the potential of orchids and their biological and cosmetic properties, in order to support skin longevity research. Guerlain Research runs three interrelated and complementary centres: The Experimental Garden ? Geneva (Switzerland), a greenhouse where a collection of Guerlain orchids is housed in order to study and identify the most remarkable species. The Basic Research Laboratory ? Strasbourg (France), the first basic research unit dedicated to the study of orchids and the identification and analysis of longevity molecules. The Exploratory Nature Reserve ? TianZi (Yunnan, China), a nature reserve – a pillar of biodiversity and conservation – where wild orchids are protected and reintroduced into their natural environment.
