Blanc
7.3Paul & Joe · 2003
Fresh · Floral · Sweet
Paul & Joe Blanc opens with almond and hawthorn and moves into a floral heart of freesia, rose and lily, a fresh, powdery scent aimed at women and suited to daytime; it has been discontinued.
The top holds almond, hawthorn and angelica, while the heart of freesia, rose, sweet pea and lily gives it a floral frame. In the base, heliotrope, musk and milk turn the sweetness soft, creamy and gourmand. The overall impression is fresh, powdery and lightly woody.
Most voters pick spring and summer, with daily wear and the office leading the occasions. Longevity is rated moderate and sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin. Around half of voters read it as feminine. Aubade Le Parfum and Jacques Zolty Fleur de Lune have a close profile.
