  I’d like to smell it. I own the petite robe noire (parfum) and at first I loved it for its exoticism; now I’m fed up because it’s too strong and overwhelms me. Well, I’d have to try this one to see… and by the way, Guerlain fragrances are very expensive.

  Tried a sample today and absolutely loved it: fresh, a classic Guerlain chypre alongside their orientals, yet so light it lacks a bit of character—that’s the only drawback. Smells like the original La Petite Robe Noire, but without that red, acidic note that gave it a synthetic edge and robbed it of sophistication. Now it’s the almonds and pistachio that hold this springtime, warm fragrance; citrus and wood are there, understated but present. It’s innocent, sensual, very cheerful and carefree, perfect for the heat. Recommended. Longevity is medium and the sillage very light, so if you’re like me, you’ll miss the projection, but discreet women will enjoy it to the fullest.

  Today I tried a sample and it’s very pleasant: fresh, indeed, it’s a chypre, Guerlain’s star alongside the orientals. However, its lightness is so great that it feels a bit timid to me, its only drawback. The scent is similar to the first ‘La petite Robe Noire’ but without the red and acidic note that stripped it of rigour and made it synthetic. Now it’s the almonds and pistachio that provide support to this spring fragrance; the citrus and woody notes are discreet. It’s candid yet sensual, jovial, carefree, and perfect for the heat. Recommended. Medium longevity, very light sillage; if you’re an exhibitionist, its softness will be its flaw, but discreet women will enjoy it to the maximum.

  Eau Fraiche? The name is misleading; it’s actually Petal Dress Aquaura. Guerlain could be considered niche, or at least it was before LVMH bought them. What’s certain is that it’s not designer. Here in Argentina, it has standard prices, even slightly cheaper than several designer ones (much less than Cartier, Hermès, or Lalique). The perfume is pleasant but I find it a bit weak, especially the sillage.

  It’s elegant and fresh, ideal for spring or summer. It reminds me a lot of a Miss Dior version. Perhaps it’s not as persistent as other ‘Le petite’ fragrances, which I find heavy or sweet. This new version is green, floral, and a little citrusy, although the last note doesn’t dominate. Recommended!

  I consider it beautiful, long-lasting, clean, youthful, and with a affectionate depth.

  Fresh and moderate, it’s a discreet Guerlain eau de toilette without great surprises. It’s rich yet flat, taking no risks. The white musk and bergamot stand out. A good option for those seeking light and fresh scents, but its longevity and sillage are very weak.

  I find it a very pretty and cheerful fragrance. I adore its cherry and wild strawberry aroma, typical of patisserie, very sweet, accompanied this time by almonds.

  I tried it with a sample when buying another item and it became my summer scent of 2015. I absolutely loved it; it’s a delicious blend of pistachio, cherries, and almond.

  This little sprite seems to leap out of a storybook and is delicious and playful. At first, it reminded me of the opening of Mia Me Mine by Halloween (roses and musk, smelling of dry, woody roses), but in a slightly sweeter, fresher, more versatile version. Then that curious pistachio note catches your attention and stands out with the almond; to a certain extent, it smells like a cocktail to beat the heat on the beach. It’s very youthful and pleasant, with many notes I can’t quite perceive all of, but I’d bet its sweetness comes from strawberry, vanilla, and cherry. That natural sweetness is very well executed; it’s not overpowering, but like sugar-free sweets for diabetics that keep their essence. This is exactly how I hoped Paris Et Moi by Jafra would smell. It transports me to Parisian streets after the rain, it’s friendly and lingers on the skin like a confidant. I’m a little disappointed by the short longevity and scarce sillage given the high price; I expected more. Still, I wouldn’t rule out buying a small bottle in the future. Scent: 9/10, Sillage: 5/10, Longevity: 5/10.

  It’s almost identical to its sister LPRN EDP but fresher; I didn’t notice the citrus or pistachio notes that intrigued me so much. I quite liked it, but I wouldn’t buy the bottle since I already own the other one and can’t see the point in having two similar scents, though I do recommend it as a good perfume.

  This beautiful little sprite that seemed to jump out of a storybook is simply delicious and playful. At first it reminded me of the opening of Mia Me Mine from Halloween (due to the rose and musk scent this combination smells like dry woody roses to me) but in a slightly sweet fresh and versatile version. But then the curious pistachio note settled on my skin which was the one that most caught my attention and stood out with the almond. To a certain extent it seemed like an alcoholic cocktail you order at the beach to kill the heat. It’s a very youthful and pleasant fragrance with many notes and it’s a pity I can’t perceive all of them. But I can bet that its sweetness was the work of the strawberry vanilla and cherry. That slight natural sweetness is very well achieved. But I warn you it’s not lethally sweet; it’s like those sugar-free candies for diabetics that still maintain their essence. I must admit that this is how I expected Paris Et Moi by Jafra to smell. I smell LPRN Eau Fraîche and it transports me to the streets of Paris after it has rained. It’s quite friendly and stays on your skin as if it were your confidante. Its scarce trail and short longevity disappoint me a little. For the high price it has I expected these two to be excellent. Nevertheless I don’t rule out buying a full bottle in the future perhaps 30ml ♡ ♡ Aroma: 9/10 ♡ Trail: 5/10 ♡ Longevity: 5/10

  Very delicious and delicate. Although it shares similarities with Petite Robe Noire EDT, I can distinguish it in its opening and dry down. This version has a more potent opening, citrusy, with a certain softness like a pastry essence, creamy and delicious. After five minutes, the familiarity with the EDT is felt, but it doesn’t last very long because, unlike the EDT, I don’t feel it sharp or too almond-forward; here the rose enters and the creaminess of a not-so-obvious vanilla is accentuated at the end, well accompanied by sweet and floral touches. It’s sweet but not gourmand, with a non-classic rose and good longevity on the skin without being heavy. Sillage is soft (although to me, who likes fresh perfumes, it’s not indispensable). If you’ve tried the EDPs and found them too potent, Petite Robe Noire EDT and this Fraiche version are two fragrances you must not miss.

  Very rich and delicate perfume. Although it has a closeness to Petite Robe Noire EDT I would distinguish it mainly in its opening and base. This version has a more potent opening citrusy although accompanied by a certain softness something like a pastry essence creamy and delicious. Now yes after 5/10 minutes you feel that familiarity with the EDT but it lasts very little because this one unlike the EDT I don’t feel it overly cherry or too almond-y; here the rose also begins to participate but towards the end the creaminess of a not-too-obvious vanilla is accentuated well accompanied by its sweet and floral touches. Sweet but not in the gourmand sense with a rose note that is by no means classic and good longevity on skin without being heavy or overwhelming. Soft trail (although to me who likes fresh perfumes it’s not something indispensable). If you tried the EDPs and found them very potent Petite Robe Noire EDT and this Fraîche version are two fragrances not to be missed.

  Normal. The typical sweet cherries and almonds of today’s Guerlain and as is also usually the case difficult to capture much more given the abstract and undefined nature of its notes and its short potency.

  La Petite Robe Noire Eau Fraîche: this one I really like and a lot. Its opening is fresh airy lovely for summer. Obviously it’s sweet and quite so let’s not deceive ourselves. But this time that beautiful opening makes it usable in any season. I don’t know if it’s the pistachio perhaps a pistachio in cold water how beautiful it is. Cherries in the base sweet and juicy playing with the sensation of a frozen stream. I even imagine mixing it with an ostentatiously green effervescent and slightly aquatic perfume to prolong the effect. This perfume would be perfect for me in full summer those days you miss sweet perfumes but dare not use them due to the nausea and heaviness they sometimes cause in certain temperatures. Or as an alternative for people who want to flirt with the sweet confectionery side but dare not buy a current mass-destruction bomb. La Petite Fraîche can act as a bridge perfume to start flirting or to stay without crossing the Willy Wonka border. I insist it’s sweet yes but it has a well-made lightness because it is so from its opening to its end. I recognise that as it settles the cherries and almond become more noticeable but it holds back. Incredibly sprayed generously on chest arms neck and clothes it smells quite strong which I appreciate for summer in which nothing lasts for me. Proof from my companion Odette 🙂

  What a lovely smell! It’s sweet yet fresh, delicate and distinct from the rest. I liked it at first and have come to love it with wear. It’s one of my best perfumes and always compliments me. I love Guerlain more and more each time. At first, you notice the orange and lemon, but over time it becomes more floral. I love it.

  It smells so lovely! Sweet but fresh delicate distinct from the rest. At first I liked it but with repeated use I’ve come to love it. One of the best perfumes I own and they always flatter me. I like the house Guerlain more and more. At first you feel the orange and lemon but over time it becomes more floral. I love it.

  After years of letting it pass I decided to buy this fragrance blindly… It’s exactly as I expected; I liked it very much. A light fresh eau de toilette with the DNA of the rest of the line but more discreet. This one stands out because it doesn’t overwhelm the furious cherry of the EDP; it’s there but in a very light form. The pistachio note stands out as promised by the brand along with freesias patchouli… all in a harmonious form. As soon as the mail arrived home and I received it I bathed early and started to appreciate it… What came to my mind?? I think as we age we lean more towards ephemeral perfumes less strong and ostentatious. We learn to choose a perfume for every occasion season mood people who will smell it etc. Not everything has to be strong long-lasting and eye-catching… we learn to choose perfumes for every occasion and they are all special. I also thought about the ephemerality of life how people from before drift away from one’s life coming and going immersed in their daily routines not noticing how quickly time passes… and how soon we go we leave we cease to exist. I think perfumes like these remind us of the brevity of our time; it goes like all the hesperid notes in a short time but they cheer us up lift our spirits sometimes make us ill sadden us make us nostalgic… they fulfil their function in their time they pass through our lives for a reason That is the function of these beautiful and delicate perfumes… I understood that with time. A perfume doesn’t have to be strong all the time just as we ourselves are; fresh perfumes are worth what they offer they revitalise us. Previously I thought every perfume I bought had to last just as when I started relationships I thought they were forever all of them for a lifetime a huge mistake. Everything has its time and place… this fragrance is for personal enjoyment to feel light calm balanced. To feel it gently embracing you being there without bothering or offending anyone… it’s for reflection. The almond note is notable; it’s there but doesn’t stand out too much or isn’t sweet like the almonds found in Girl of Now by Elie Saab… rather they are the raw unprocessed almonds found in natural product stores. Similarly with the pistachio. Nobody eats candied nuts in summer and well that’s why sweet almonds are better in winter. The citrus-lemon mandarin bergamot- for my pleasure they quench the vanilla and balance the rest of the notes without being ordinary; they are present but don’t overpower. I think that balance is the best thing about the perfume. Also its freshness; as soon as you spray it you start to feel the cold of the perfumed water on your body; undoubtedly it’s designed for very hot days. To be perfumed but without feeling the heat body temperature and perspiration… I think it fulfils its function of quenching the skin’s thirst… The trail is soft and as it should be an eau fraîche shouldn’t have a strong trail or it loses its nature. The longevity comes from the base notes. Patchouli is present throughout the perfume’s journey accompanying the notes but not overpowering them. It’s a marvel. Happy to have acquired it in a large size; I think it will be my favourite for summer 2020!!

  After years of letting it pass, I decided to buy it blindly… It’s exactly as I expected; I’ve really liked it. It’s a light and fresh eau de toilette with the line’s DNA, but more discreet. It stands out for not overwhelming with the furious cherry of the EDP, but in a very light form. The pistachio stands out as promised by the brand, along with freesia, patchouli… all in harmony. As soon as the mail arrived, I bathed and tried it. What emerged in my mind? I think as we age we lean more towards ephemeral fragrances, less strong and ostentatious. We learn to choose according to the occasion, season, mood, or who will wear it. Not everything has to be strong and eye-catching; all perfumes are special for their moment. Nothing has to be strong and loud all the time; all perfumes are special for their time. I thought about the ephemerality of life; people from ‘before’ drift away, time passes quickly… I think fragrances like these remind us of the brevity of our time. They go away like hesperides, in a short time, but they cheer us up, lift our spirits, sometimes make us ill or sad, make us nostalgic. They fulfil their function in their time, passing through our lives ‘for a reason’. That’s their function: beautiful and delicate. I understood with time that perfume doesn’t have to be strong all the time, like we thought ourselves to be. They’re worth what fresh ones offer: they revitalise us. Before I thought every perfume had to last forever, like the relationships I thought were eternal, a gross mistake. Everything has its time and place. This fragrance is for personal enjoyment, to feel light, calm, balanced. To feel gently embraced, there without troubling or annoying. It’s for reflection. The almond note is notable, present but not too prominent or sweet like those in ‘Girl of Now’ by Elie Saab; they’re more like the raw almonds from natural stores. Just like the pistachio. Nobody eats candied nuts in summer, so sweet almonds are for winter. The citrus (lemon, mandarin, bergamot), to my delight, quench the vanilla and balance the rest without being ordinary; they’re present but don’t stand out. I think that balance is the best. Also its freshness: as soon as you spray it, you feel the cold of perfumed water on the body, designed for hot days. To be scented without feeling body heat or perspiration… I think it fulfils its function of quenching the skin’s thirst. The sillage is soft, as befits an eau fraiche that shouldn’t have a strong one to lose its nature. The longevity is given by the base notes. The patchouli accompanies the whole journey without overpowering. It’s a wonder. Happy to have bought it in large size, I think it will be my favourite this summer 2020.

  I bought it blindly online because it’s already hard to find in stores. The first time on my skin I didn’t like it; it has a slight masculine touch. I decided to keep using it and grew to like it. I imagined it would be fresher due to the declared top notes but it seems more sweet with a constant touch of patchouli.

  I hunted for it like crazy online (I even bought it but there was a shipping issue) and just as I discovered it’s still available in my city. It’s gorgeous; I was hugely surprised by its longevity and the delicious patchouli base I absolutely loved it! I imagined it as lighter and more luminous but it’s enveloping and substantial. You can appreciate many of its notes throughout the stages of the fragrance. I’ll be back at the perfumerie to get my bottle as soon as I can because it deserves a place in my collection.

  So many delicious notes I imagined something else. Truthfully it didn’t seem unpleasant but nutty notes just don’t work on my skin. There was a sharp dominant note that prevented me from enjoying the fruity aspects. I didn’t find it amusing; I was expecting something similar to LPRN Intense but softer and it was nothing like that.
