The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2020 by Guerlain, La Petite Robe Noire Eau de Parfum So Frenchy is a composition that embodies the essence of Parisian elegance. Perfumer Thierry Wasser has crafted this Oriental Vanilla fragrance with a blend of sweet and fruity notes that evoke the warmth and charm of a classic French afternoon. The opening citrus and almond notes give way to a heart of rose and red berries, while the base of patchouli and vanilla anchors the scent in a rich, comforting embrace.
Apply one to two sprays on your pulse points. The citrus opening is bright but fleeting, making way for the heart notes that unfold gradually. Allow it to settle close to skin rather than projecting across a room, as this scent reads best in intimate settings.
