What does Une Belle Journée smell like?
Its longevity is rated good and its sillage moderate, so it stays noticeable through much of the day without filling the room. Only a few people have rated it, so treat these as early impressions rather than a firm verdict. It is positioned as a feminine fragrance.
It opens bright, with rose, mint and lemon-mandarin citrus. In the heart, Gallic rose, violet leaf and peony add a soft, green floral layer. The base of leather, Egyptian jasmine and French tree moss sweetens it slightly and settles it onto a drier ground. Carthusia Essence of the Park and Ciro Floveris have a close profile.
