According to legend, when the French royal family tried to flee France disguised as commoners at the height of the French Revolution in 1791, they were betrayed by Marie Antoinette's perfume. As the queen emerged from their carriage at Varennes, her heavenly fragrance1 revealed her to be no ordinary citizen.
一七九一年,法国大革命浪潮到达巅。据说,当时王室成员扮作平民,准备逃亡出国,但王后玛丽‧安唐妮所抹香水泄露了他们身分。她在瓦雷纳走下马车时,身上的奇香显示她并非寻常百姓。
They were promptly2 returned to Paris and eventually guillotined.
他们马上被送回巴黎,最后送上断头台。
