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
This is a scent for close range and quiet confidence, when a crisp white-floral impression should feel polished rather than loud. It suits intimate settings where its clean floral opening and soft sweetness can read as fresh skin, not perfume first.
How to wear
Best in spring and mild weather, where its lily-of-the-valley and jasmine stay bright and its marshmallow-cocoa base remains soft. Apply lightly to keep the airy floral character intact; too much will push the sweetness forward and blur the clean effect.
Who it’s for
For those who like white florals with a modern, slightly gourmand twist: clean, feminine-leaning, softly sweet, and not overly powdery. It will appeal to wearers who enjoy fresh florals with a tender, musky drydown rather than sharp green brightness.

The nose
Antoine Maisondieu is a French perfumer known for a style that balances clarity, texture and a modern sense of sensuality. His work often moves easily between transparent florals, musks and richer gourmand or woody accords, giving his compositions a polished but approachable signature. He has created fragrances across niche and designer perfumery, including titles for Tom Ford, Burberry and Comme des Garçons, and is also associated with Etat Libre d’Orange’s Jasmin et Cigarette. In Yes I Do, his touch suits the fragrance’s contrast between fresh white flowers and a soft, edible base, keeping the composition airy rather than heavy.
Etat Libre d'Orange’s story
Etat Libre d'Orange builds its identity on freedom, irony and creative audacity, treating perfume as a space for provocation as well as beauty. The house favors original compositions, sharp names and a refusal of convention, while still aiming for polished, high-quality perfumery.
Yes I do’s concept
Yes I Do, originally released under the more provocative name Don't Get Me Wrong Baby, YES I DO, was conceived as a fresh white-floral composition with a slightly green edge and a soft gourmand base. Its imagery is deliberately sensual: a bouquet of white flowers, a tender mouth, and a contrast between purity and seduction.
Extra info
The perfume was renamed from Don't Get Me Wrong Baby, I Don't Swallow to Yes I Do for decency reasons. It remains in production as an Eau de Parfum and is known for its square ELdO flacon and subversive naming style.
