Our verdict on Premier Jour: Favourite

Premier Jour is a clean, understated floral that perfectly balances warmth and freshness. A crowd-pleaser that evokes happiness, some find it too bland, but most praise its elegant, quiet charm. Just don't mention the novichok.

About

Opening with a crisp, aqueous burst of mandarin and sweet pea, Premier Jour quickly settles into a heart of delicate gardenia and soft orchid. It avoids any heavy creaminess, instead maintaining an airy floral character that eventually merges with a base of gentle woods, a hint of vanilla, and a clean, fresh musk. It's subtle yet present, leaving a whisper of soft floral sweetness.
