The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2013, La Petite Robe Noire Mon Eau de Lingerie by Guerlain is a composition that captures the essence of French elegance and sophistication. Perfumer Thierry Wasser crafted this fragrance with a blend of fresh citrus and green notes, which are balanced by the warmth of Turkish Rose and Bulgarian Rose. The addition of sour cherry adds an unexpected twist, creating a scent that feels both intimate and invigorating. Patchouli rounds out the base, grounding the composition in earthy depth.

How to wear it

Apply lightly to pulse points; this fragrance blooms best close to skin. The sour cherry note fades quickly, so it's the base notes that will linger throughout the day.
