The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2017 by Guerlain, La Petite Robe Noire 5th Anniversary Edition is a captivating Oriental Vanilla fragrance created by Thierry Wasser. It opens with the bright burst of sour cherry and red berries, contrasting beautifully against the rich, warm base notes of vanilla and patchouli. The heart of this composition features Taif rose and iris, adding layers of floral depth and sophistication. This anniversary edition encapsulates the essence of Guerlain's luxurious heritage while embracing modern innovation.
Apply this fragrance lightly in the morning for a long-lasting effect. The opening notes are vibrant but fade quickly, giving way to the deeper, warmer base that lasts throughout the day. It reads best close to skin rather than filling a room.
