Renamed for decency reasons, the perfume previously known as "Don`t Get Me Wrong Baby, I Don't Swallow" is now called "Yes, I do"
We are quoting ELdO here:
"It all starts with a hand on the nape of a neck. The hand of a man familiar with the practice of attracting young women, accustomed to crumpling their sleek hair and to getting the better of their well-behaved manners. This is the story of a man in a car at night, of a manly hand that draws a perfectly fresh face towards him - expressed at the start by a bouquet of white flowers: lily of the valley, jasmine and orange blossom–, and who anticipates the chocolaty taste and tenderness of a mouth. It is also the story of a woman who at first resists and finally goes down on him. The art of the “American kiss” unfurls on accords of ambre solaire, almond, sugar cane and marsh mallow. The man will discover everything there is to know about her: the warm roughness of her tongue, the rousing sensation of her back and forth. All there is to know and no more than that! The appetizer ends in a whisper: “Don’t get me wrong baby, I don’t swallow.”

Composition: Jasmine, lily of the valley, orange blossom, amber, patchouli, cacao, musk, marshmallow...
Perfumer: Antoine Maisondieu (who's also behind ELdO's Jasmin et Cigarette, Tom Ford's Velvet Orchid, quite a few Commes des Garcones, Burberry and many other perfumes)
All about this fragrance
Vibe check
A neatly pressed blouse, a small bunch of white flowers and a conversation that becomes less formal as the afternoon unfolds. The lily-of-the-valley keeps the impression composed; marshmallow and cocoa bring a softer, more playful register when someone moves closer.
How to wear
Try it in mild spring weather, when the white-floral brightness and sweet base can sit comfortably together. Start with one or two sprays on the neck or forearms for a restrained impression; in warmer conditions, apply lightly so the marshmallow and cocoa do not dominate the bouquet.
Who it’s for
For those who enjoy clean white florals but want more softness than a purely green or soapy composition offers. It suits a taste for lily-of-the-valley and jasmine with confectionery accents, balancing a tidy floral aesthetic with marshmallow sweetness.
Release year
2007, renamed 2016
The nose
Antoine Maisondieu is known for balancing polished structures with unexpected textures, working across experimental niche perfumery and major designer houses. His portfolio includes État Libre d’Orange’s Jasmin et Cigarette and co-authorship of Tom Ford’s Velvet Orchid. In Yes I Do, his white-floral composition brings together clean brightness and soft gourmand warmth.
Etat Libre d'Orange’s story
Founded by Étienne de Swardt, État Libre d’Orange treats perfume as a space for creative independence, giving perfumers room to challenge conventional ideas of beauty and good taste. Provocative names and irreverent stories accompany serious compositions; Yes I Do expresses that contrast through a delicate floral bouquet with a suggestive narrative.
Yes I do’s concept
Yes I Do continues the fragrance introduced in 2007 as Don’t Get Me Wrong Baby, I Don’t Swallow. Its 2016 return brought a new name and presentation, with contemporary coverage describing a reworking rather than an unrelated creation. The concept plays on apparent innocence and concealed sensuality: white flowers and ballerina-like delicacy set against sweetness and knowingly suggestive storytelling.
Extra info
The house classifies Yes I Do as floral/fresh on its international site and gourmand/floral on its U.S. site. Its official note lists also differ between the two sites, highlighting different facets of the fragrance without establishing that separate regional formulas exist.
