The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Paul Guerlain crafted Girl Life by Rochas, launching it in 2023 as an Oriental Floral fragrance that embodies the essence of modern femininity. The composition opens with the vibrant freshness of cassis and pink pepper, followed by mandarin orange, creating a lively and energetic start. As the scent evolves, tuberose, jasmine, and rose take center stage, infusing the fragrance with a sophisticated white floral bouquet. Vanilla adds warmth and depth to the blend, while cedar and sinfonide ground the composition in earthy, woody notes.

How to wear it

Girl Life has a bright opening that fades within an hour, so apply it liberally to ensure the floral heart and woody base have time to develop. It pairs well with light layers for daytime wear but can also be layered under heavier scents for evening occasions.
