Jean Couturier Un Jardin a Paris is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2009. Un Jardin a Paris opens with Bergamot, Lemon, Mandarin, and Yuzu, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Ylang-Ylang, Lily, and Peach, and dries down to a base of Musk, Amber, Sandalwood, and Vanilla. Jean Couturier's Un Jardin a Paris carries a Favourite verdict, a fresh-led wear.

If you're after 'Allure vibes' without the Chanel price tag, this is your quiet little secret. A beautifully composed, distinctly feminine floral that's a crowd-pleaser and a solid blind-buy. Just don't expect it to shout.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

About

Un Jardin a Paris opens with a delightful burst of bright citruses, with yuzu and mandarin offering a zesty, uplifting start. This quickly melts into a soft, creamy heart of sweet peach, delicate jasmine, and the lush, exotic touch of ylang-ylang. The base gently settles into a warm, inviting blend of smooth amber, creamy vanilla, and soft musk, underscored by a touch of sandalwood for a refined finish. It’s an elegant, floral-fruity embrace.
