La Petite Robe Noire So Frenchy Eau De Toilette 2020

This small silhouette drawn in India ink has made Paris its kingdom. Freely striding along the Parisian pavement with its playful gait, La Petite Robe Noire is now known by everyone as the quintessence of Parisian chic and grace. It is therefore only natural that Guerlain decided to revisit its Eau de Toilette version to create La Petite Robe Noire So Frenchy.

The fruity and floral breath of La Petite Robe Noire So Frenchy Eau de Toilette

Let's begin with the scent of this fragrance. Indeed, this juice is exactly the same as the one created in 2013 by Thierry Wasser. This limited edition therefore concerns only its bottle, which changes visual and offers a particularly “frenchy” vision of its style. The recipe of this Eau de Toilette is meant to be floral and fruity, a true delight with an airy, springlike scent. La Petite Robe Noire So Frenchy describes itself as joie de vivre embodied, which loves to flutter about with complete lightness. La Petite Robe Noire So Frenchy first takes flight on a bouquet of rose, jasmine and orange blossom. In all delicacy, this fragrance is then carried by a greener, more sparkling heart. At this point, fruits intermingle for greater gourmand character. La Petite Robe Noire So Frenchy Eau de Toilette contains cherry, apple and blackcurrant. Gradually, everything warms up until it reaches a sillage of amber and white musk.

The new “à la française” bottle of Guerlain's La Petite Robe Noire So Frenchy

With this 2020 limited edition, Guerlain wished to emphasize its French heritage. Thus, La Petite Robe Noire So Frenchy comes in a tricolor bottle. The crystalline glass of the past has given way to a blue, white and red lacquer. The Eau de Toilette version of La Petite Robe Noire So Frenchy is dominated by the color red, while its Eau de Parfum edition leaves more room for blue. In doing so, the bottle of La Petite Robe Noire So Frenchy takes us back into Guerlain's rich heritage. As a bit of history, this bottle was designed at the beginning of the twentieth century by designer Serge Mansau, for the perfumes L'Heure Bleue and Mitsouko. Although the silhouette of this bottle has been slightly transformed and modernized, its main distinctive elements are immediately recognizable, such as its comma-shaped shoulders or its cap resembling an inverted heart.
