La Petite Robe Noire Eau de Toilette Collector Edition

HeartThe Soul
The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2013, La Petite Robe Noire Eau de Toilette Collector Edition by Guerlain is a floral fruity fragrance that captures the essence of elegance and freshness. Created by Thierry Wasser, this composition opens with a bright green accord and apple notes before transitioning into a heart of jasmine, rose, and orange blossom. The base layers in patchouli, musk, and amber for a warm, sweet finish. This scent embodies the sophistication and innovation that Guerlain has been known for since 1828.
One spray is usually enough for daytime wear as the green accord and fruity notes are quite lively. For evening, a second spritz can help bring out the warmer base notes of patchouli and amber. This fragrance blooms best close to skin rather than projecting across the room.
