The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2013, La Petite Robe Noire Eau de Parfum Collector Edition by Guerlain is a creation that embodies the brand's tradition of using luxurious and rare materials. Perfumer Thierry Wasser crafted this Oriental Vanilla fragrance with notes of red berries, sour cherry, almond, bergamot, licorice, rose, taif rose, tea, iris, patchouli, tonka bean, anise, and vanilla. The composition opens with a burst of fresh red berries and sour cherry, leading into a soft spicy heart with almond and licorice, before settling into a warm base of roses, tea, iris, and the rich notes of patchouli and vanilla.
This fragrance blooms over time, so allow it to develop on the skin for at least half an hour before reapplying. The red berry top notes are fleeting but vibrant; focus on layering with a few sprays to ensure the rich base notes carry through the day.
