La Petite Robe Noire Guerlain 2012 Eau de Parfum

This fragrance really packs a punch, and it is anything but a weak little cherry juice. As with any perfume, opinions are divided; there are lovers and critics. Personally, I like Petit Robe Noir, but in my circle, it has met with a lot of rejection. Therefore, it is not necessarily a "classic among little black dresses," as the name might suggest, but rather a bold and eye-catching outfit.

The opening note is very sweet and slightly sour, thanks to the licorice, it also has a very licorice-like quality. I believe that was the first thing that caught the attention of those around me, and it did not particularly appeal to them. Licorice is not very common in perfumes, and combined with the cherry note, it reminds me of a Haribo bat - I personally find that interesting and delicious. However, due to these pronounced notes, I would say that this fragrance is not suitable for everyone. Tres chic in a different way.

Later, the fragrance becomes more powdery and woody, but the cherry note remains sweet-sour and present. I do not perceive rose at all, but rather the powdery violet. If anyone thinks it becomes extremely powdery, they are mistaken. It remains a fruity scent, albeit not quite as sweet anymore.

The cherry undergoes a real metamorphosis. At first, it is very sweet and rebellious, but then it gradually becomes more mature and gentle.
