History

With Parlez-moi d’Amour, English fashion designer John Galliano proposes a young, modern fragrance with a rebel attitude in which flowers and fruit are shaded with spicy and woodsy accents. The idea for the perfume, which comes in a letter-like bottle, comes from the realization that, ’What with the internet, mobile phones and e-mails, the art of falling in love has lost its charm,’ explains Galliano. With Parlez-moi d’Amour, the couturier ‘wanted to create a perfume which combined a modern-day muse with the courage that it takes in the 21st century to write one’s feelings by hand, in a letter.’ The fragrance is aimed at both “rock ‘n roll” young women and more starry-eyed romantic ones, since it’s putting ‘romanticism à la française’ back in the spotlight.

Bottle

The “folds” in the rectangular Parlez-moi d’Amour bottle make it look like an envelope… holding a love letter, of course. It even has a pretty stamp with a floral pattern in the top-right corner. The round, golden cap has been engraved with sweet nothings.
