Perfume Parlour French Day For Women is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2013. French Day For Women opens with Aquatic, Lemon, and Grapefruit, settles into a heart of Sweet Pea, Floral, Green, and Gardenia, and dries down to a base of Woody and Musk. Perfume Parlour's French Day For Women carries a Favourite verdict, a floral-led wear.

French Day clones Hermes Jour d'Hermes - that luminous, weightless white-floral of bright citrus over a soft hush of gardenia and green florals. The fresh, elegant daytime character lands well; as a budget take it loses some of the original's airy transparency and the florals read a shade more conventional.

About

French Day opens crisp and bright, a clean watery accord with lemon and grapefruit that echoes the crystalline start of Jour d'Hermes. The heart settles into the soft, transparent floral the original is famous for: white flowers and gardenia laced with sweet pea and a green, dewy edge, luminous rather than heady. A light base of soft woods and musk carries it down to a gentle skin scent. As a budget clone of Hermes' 2013 luminist landmark it captures that fresh, sensual white-floral mood convincingly, an effortless daytime wear for warm seasons. The divergence is finesse: the original's signature was its airy, minimalist transparency, and the dupe renders the florals a touch fuller and more ordinary, dimming a little of that refined glow. Performance is moderate, soft and close. A fresh, elegant everyday floral at a fraction of the niche-grade price.
