Sous Le Vent (pronounced [su vɑ̃]) is a fragrance created by Jacques Guerlain in 1933 for American performer Josephine Baker.[1] Interior designer Robert Denning would bring it back from Paris and used it in his automobiles to remind him of Lillian Bostwick Phipps who always wore the scent.[citation needed]
