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.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Oakmoss Evernia prunastri extract from Oakmoss

Other declarable allergens

  • Lavender Lavandula Hybrida Oil from Lavender
  • Rose geranium Pelargonium Graveolens Oil from Geranium
  • Spearmint Mentha Viridis Leaf Oil from Mint

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

266 BJ centres itself on the same lavender note that Tom Ford built Beau de Jour's entire identity around, and the oakmoss and patchouli-amber base tracks the original's clean, fougère-leaning character closely. This dupe adds rosemary, mint, basil and geranium into the heart, giving it a herbal freshness that rounds out the otherwise lavender-dominant original into something slightly more complex. The overall silhouette, a modern take on the classic fougère genre built around lavender's clean sophistication, is well represented here, and the fidelity to the original's specific lavender-oakmoss-amber signature is one of the stronger matches in this range.
