The series of Guerlain's little fragrant black dresses is getting longer. This time, elegant black ladies are joined by La Petite Robe Noire Velours - a delicate velvety fruity-floral fragrance. The glamorous chic fragrance opens fresh and sweet in the top notes with citrus and cherry and develops in the perfume accord with the scent of almond, violet and rose, and the perfume mist ends with tonka bean, black tea and patchouli. A beautifully balanced fragrance that subtly rounds off the elegance of the woman who perfumes herself with the fragrance.

It is important to know

When choosing, the most important thing is whether the citrus-floral scent profile suits you; the perfume family label does not reveal the full character of the fragrance. If you are not familiar with it, do not rely solely on the brand or name to make a decision.

• The citrus-floral family is a useful starting point for selection, but not a guarantee that you will like a specific fragrance.
• Eau de parfum makes sense if you're looking for this type of fragrance, but it's impossible to predict from the label alone how long you'll be able to detect the scent.
• With 50 ml, consider how often you plan to use the fragrance; the milliliters alone do not tell you whether the scent profile will suit you.

Answers to frequently asked questions

Does the citrus-floral family tell you what a fragrance will smell like?

It tells the basic direction of the scent profile, but not all of its characteristics. Therefore, the label alone does not guarantee that you will like a specific fragrance.

Can I infer from the eau de parfum label how long the scent will be noticeable?

Not reliable. The product type information alone does not determine the exact duration of the detectability of this fragrance.
