I purchased Terra Tropica. I have only used it once and was not that impressed. I was in a hurry for work, so I did not take the time to play with it properly. I plan to try it again over the holiday weekend to see if my opinion changes. I will have more time to "mess with it."
Thanks for your initial thoughts! I hope it ends up being a winner for you. I hate trying to use my new products before work, where every millisecond counts lol.

Tried Terra Tropica again. Meh. It is ok but not amazing. Not worth the $$ IMHO. I would invest in another one of the 4 seasons bronzers before buying this. I have Nudes and Natural Blonds, and both are amazing.

I have those two also and love them

I feel that guerlain permanent bronzers are better quality than these summer editions

Looking forward to your post!!
Received my powder last night, and it's going back

First, let me say that this powder is huge! I was not expecting it to be such a large compact, like over 3 inches in diameter. Is this normal for the bronzers? The color pay-off was not great. I was able to get a soft subtle glow on my NC35 skin, but it didn't deposit any color. I was looking for an all-over powder, but this is just too subtle. I think this would be best for very fair skin. The worst part of this for me was the scent. The tiare flower was so strong. Headache inducing strong. That alone was a deal breaker for me.

Thanks for updating, that's so disappointing!! I'm about an nc30 so you really helped, I'm going to pass on it :(

Thanks so much for your input! The scent worries me abit, it might irritate my sensitive eyes. Oddly enough, I still want it though. I will probably skip and just admire it from afar.

I really like this down to earth youtube and instagram lady, she put this gorgeous pic up of her Guerlain bronzers:

I haven't been able to find the Tonka Imperiale lipstick or nail polish at any of my usual Guerlain sources. I was starting to panic as I didn't want summer to go by before I found these limited edition shades. Finally found them at The Bay online, so I ordered them today.

Has anyone else bought the Tonka Imperiale lipstick or nail polish?

Me too. They made a batch of the Terracotta perfume back in October due to high demand, but there's no word if the perfume will be a permanent addition or stay as LE. They have discontinued one of the Shalimar and Idylle flankers. There's going to be a new La Petite Robe Noire flanker and a new Aqua Allegoria called Teazzurra. Terra Tropica is another of my ~the one that got away~ items. I liked that it was subtle and sheer compared to other bronzers. :p

I just saw a bottle of terracotta perfume at shoppers drug mart in Montreal Canada so if you have any friends in Canada they might be able to find it for you. As for Shalimar flanker, I order from fragranceNet.com and beautyencounter a lot of perfume and they still have Shalimar initiale, Shalimar Ode a la vanille and so on and I never had any problem from any of those site, they are legit and you can find really good deals. so it is worth you take a peek. FragranceNET always have 20% off, beautyencounter have less promo code but have more niche perfume house.
