A little black dress is always in fashion, so it should be in every woman’s wardrobe as a reliable solution in unexpected situations. The theme of the timelessness of the “little black dress” was used in 2009 by the Guerlain brand, which moved it to a different level of fashion, creating an outstanding perfume creation, which turned out to be a huge success. The main accord of the fragrance La Petite Robe Noir – liquorice-almond-anise sweetness was also included in later flankers, as well as in the cult version of the perfume, which was enriched with a mesmerizing cherry with a tonka background. In your messages to us asking for advice, there are often questions about La Petite Robe Noir Guerlain perfumes, which is why we have collected our suggestions in this article.
THE SENSUAL CHARM OF LA PETITE ROBE NOIR
The cherry aroma of Guerlain’s La Petite Robe Noir perfume has become the “little black dress” in women’s dressing tables, although its universality may be debatable. An extremely dense, gourmand accord composed of black cherry, blueberries and almonds supported by rose accents, anise, sweet tonka and patchouli, will be perfect for every evening – for a candlelit dinner, to the cinema, for a walk, meeting friends or even a lazy screening in front of the TV to make him more pleasant by wrapping himself in a pleasantly sweet fragrance. However, when we want to use it to work in the office or on a hot summer day, it may turn out to be too intense for the environment. That is why, for fans of the La Petite Robe Noir aroma, we have prepared a comparison of perfumes in a similar climate, but with a greater or lesser intensity. Perhaps among our proposals you will find your own little black dress?
UNBLANKING UNIVERSAL FRAGRANCE
Every woman should have her own perfume, which is a reflection of her character and a kind of hallmark. This favorite fragrance, perfect for every day, may turn out to be too obvious “on holidays” and vice versa – those perfumes that we can afford in less obliging situations may be inadequate in others, especially when the signature scent is a fragrance as strong as the woman it belongs to. Then perfumes with a universal scent that will work anytime and anywhere will be useful in the dressing table. Probably some of you will think that a universal fragrance will be banal and simple, nothing like it! Take a look at a niche perfumery, check out our suggestions for perfumes in the style of a little black dress below, and you will see that they can be intriguing and mysterious at the same time.
LITTLE BLACK IN AMISELL – PERFUME SIMILAR TO LA PETITE ROBE NOIR GUERLAIN
If your hearts were stolen by a little black dress from Guerlain, you will surely be delighted with the syrupy cherry in WILD CHERRY from the Mancera collection. It is a proposition for those who consider La Petite Robe Noire a classic evening perfume, too intense for the day. Cherry from Wild Cherry is not so hemmed in black, which is built in its predecessor by strong base notes of patchouli, licorice and anise. Wild cherry is surrounded by powdery floral aromas and light citruses, and the base is smooth, sweet and delicate, making the perfume perfect for the day as well. The climate remains the same, the opening is twin, and the development of the fragrance will certainly be a curiosity for fans of La Petite Robe Noir Guerlain.
The Mancera brand has one more fragrance in its collection, in which you can see similarities to Guerlain’s La Petite Robe Noire. Cherry in the fruit accord of MUSKY GARDEN is replaced by cranberry accompanied by a whole range of fruit notes: blackberry, raspberry, peach and citrus. The heart is floral, powdery and sensual, and the musk-amber base is the quintessence of elegance. Musky Garden is an intense fragrance, but with moderate dosage it will work even in hot weather.
The floral-oriental version of the little black dress in ARISTOQRATI Moresque is a sublime combination of sensual peony with a deep spicy-ambergris aroma, which is harmonized with a fresh accent of geranium. The noblest sweetness of the Orient has its undeniable power, but a subtle mist of fragrance is enough to perfectly stay on the skin, and at the same time not overwhelm the environment. Aristoqrati is a great choice to emphasize femininity during the day and give aristocratic refinement at night.
GHAZAL Blend Oud hides a raspberry note in the heart, surrounded by a citrus and floral accord. Thanks to the soft base of musk and sandalwood, Ghazal does not intoxicate with weight, although its first tone is intense and deep. The safe projection of the fragrance allows you to use it at any time, and the balanced combination of notes creates a composition that is rich, refined, and at the same time subdued.
The uniqueness of the fruit accord of La Petite Robe Noir Guerlain lies not so much in the cherry note itself, but in its setting, to which the scent owes its mystery. That is why, when looking for a “little black dress” in the world of perfumes, we suggest paying attention not only to the ingredient that determines the main tone of the fragrance, but also to the other chords. Perhaps you will find the aroma of perfume similar to La Petite Robe Noir in a fragrance with a completely different composition than the original, and eventually it will turn out to be your signature scent.
AS IN THE SLEEVE
Departing from the main tone of La Petite Robe Noir, and focusing more on the symbolism of the little black dress – for all occasions and every season, we recommend three versions of our best-selling fragrance Delina by Parfums de Marly:
- DELINA – universal, combining the freshness of fruit with the sensual tone of flowers,
- DELINA LA ROSEE – lighter, sparkling, filled with aquatic notes,
- DELINA EXCLUSIF – heavier, more powdery and evening.
Each version is based on a subtle, extremely feminine version of the Turkish rose, which will always emphasize feminine charm.
ACCESSORIES THAT WILL MAKE THE LITTLE BLACK CLOTHING A DELIGHTFUL CREATION
At Amisell, such additions are single-component perfumes based on molecules, and you will find as many as 6 versions of them here:
- Molecule 01 Escentric Molecules – iso e super,
- Molecule 02 Escentric Molecules – ambroxan,
- Molecule 03 Escentric Molecules – synthetic vetiver,
- Molecule 04 Escentric Molecules – synthetic sandalwood,
- Molecule 05 Escentric Molecules – cashmere tree,
- 234.38 Zarkoperfume – brand molecule.
Why do we consider them perfect accessories to emphasize the little black dress? Well, molecules are substances that react with the skin, emotions, temperature and weather, and many other factors. They adapt to our state and environment, and thus also to the situation in which we currently find ourselves. In addition, according to preferences, they can be used alone or be a base for another fragrance, extending its durability and changing its intensity as well as the aroma itself. Used with our “day” fragrance, they can give it a completely new character, just like refined pearls to a simple “little black dress”.
