In 2019, Chloë Sevigny debuted her own perfume, Little Flower. According to Régime des FleursLittle Flower is an aroma of roses with notes like black tea, bleeding hearts, blackcurrant, blackcurrant, bud, peony and honeysuckle. Sevigny revealed that scent is very important to her. Paper magazine, “I feel like fragrance is really emotional and to me, it transcends beauty, or anything else. It’s our strongest sense of memory and it’s like wearable art. It’s almost like fashion to me, more than beauty.”
The name Little Flower sounds cute and apt for a celebrity scent, but since this is Chloë Sevigny’s perfume, the name has a deeper meaning. Inspiration came from a 19 year old.ThA century-old French nun became the Catholic patron saint on flowers. “She was also called ‘The Little Flower,’ and she died quite young and was very humble,”Sevigny stated.
Sevigny was more than just the person who signed the bottles. She was also involved in the creation of the perfume. It went through more than thirty iterations before Sevigny was happy with the final product. “I’ve always worn rose perfumes, but I think of this as a city rose,”Sevigny said Vogue.
