La Petite Robe Noire 5ème Anniversaire

First created in 2009, La Petite Robe Noire was intended for a limited release. However, Guerlain quickly realized how much customers loved it. The house therefore decided to expand its distribution in 2012, following a slight olfactory reinterpretation signed by Thierry Wasser. Since then, La Petite Robe Noire has been one of the most famous fragrances in the world. Guerlain therefore decided to celebrate its fifth anniversary in fitting style. The house presents a limited edition called La Petite Robe Noire 5th Anniversary.

The new bottle of La Petite Robe Noire 5th Anniversary

The real surprise offered by Guerlain lies in the bottle of its new fragrance. Of course, La Petite Robe Noire 5th Anniversary retained the spirit of its predecessors. It should be noted that the La Petite Robe Noire bottle is part of Guerlain's heritage. It was created at the start of the twentieth century for the L’Heure Bleue and Mitsouko fragrances. For La Petite Robe Noire 5th Anniversary, it keeps its timeless silhouette. It is recognizable in particular by the curves of its shoulders and its cap shaped like an inverted heart. Echoing the aesthetic of the previous La Petite Robe Noire Black Perfecto from 2017, La Petite Robe Noire 5th Anniversary is tinted with a black lacquer finish with a more rebellious, rock 'n' roll spirit. Moreover, this effect is pushed even further with a new leather covering. La Petite Robe Noire 5th Anniversary remains nonetheless a prestigious bottle. Crafted by Baccarat, it has also been enhanced with leather from the renowned Maison Tassin, a Living Heritage Company (Entreprise du Patrimoine Vivant) since 2006, so exceptional is its craftsmanship. It is likewise beautifully adorned with countless leather flowers around its neck. The result is an elegant, feminine and seductive bottle.

Guerlain keeps the recipe of its La Petite Robe Noire fragrance

On the other hand, while the bottle of La Petite Robe Noire 5th Anniversary is sure to appeal to collectors and lovers of this fragrance, the recipe itself remains unchanged. Once again we find the result of the collaboration between Thierry Wasser and Delphine Jelk. La Petite Robe Noire 5th Anniversary opens on a fresh, fruity note of bergamot, almond, cherry and red fruits. This combination evokes a kind of macaron. Then, La Petite Robe Noire 5th Anniversary reveals itself with a more floral heart. It brings together two varieties of rose and pairs them with licorice. Tea also adds more depth to this fragrance. Finally, La Petite Robe Noire 5th Anniversary ends on a darker, heady and powdery note. Its sillage is rich with tonka bean, anise, vanilla, patchouli and iris.
