Jil Sander Jil is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2009, created by Olivier Polge and Bruno Jovanovic. Jil opens with Lavender, Pink Pepper, and Tangerine, settles into a heart of Orris, Lily Of The Valley, and Heliotrope, and dries down to a base of Musk, Amber, and Vanilla. Jil Sander's Jil carries an Acquired verdict, a powdery-led wear.

A creamy, powdery hug with a divisive kick. Some find it a comforting, sophisticated vanilla-lavender dream, while others are put off by a persistent sharpness or an unexpected masculine edge. Not for everyone, but if it clicks, it truly clicks.

About

Jil opens with a soft, peppery lavender, lifted by a hint of zesty tangerine. It quickly settles into a creamy heart of powdery orris and delicate heliotrope, underpinned by a faint whisper of lily of the valley. The base evolves into a warm embrace of vanilla and amber, softened by a comforting, clean musk, leaving a smooth, elegant trail.
