    Oh this is very good to share with my friend who I will be traveling with to Paris – maybe they will get excited about visiting Guerlain – I hope!

    Love hearing the authentic pronunciation of these parfums! ❤️

      LOL — yeah. Better yet, go to Guerlain’s YouTube channel and listen to the French version of this video!

        I’m going to do that. It sounds like fun!???? I had the pronunciation of Mitsouko and Shalimar wrong. ????

      The authentic pronunciation is not always helpful when perfume shopping in the U.S. I once tried asking for Habit Rouge in a department store here, giving it my best French pronunciation, and the SA did not understand what I was asking for.

        Actually, I meant for my own sake. I don’t speak any French.
