A wonderful fragrance for women
When I applied Demi-Jour Eau de Parfum, I immediately fell in love. The fragrance DNA is so lovely, beautiful, feminine, delicate and warm. I find the scent timeless and suitable for almost all occasions. The fragrance becomes skin-deep after about 5-6 hours and remains quite subtle in the background after 8-10 hours. Nevertheless, even after almost 16 hours, I can still recognize a minimal trace on the hand. The sillage is somewhat weaker and not effervescent or even disturbing.

The top note starts aldehydic, fruity, floral and somewhat green. I recognize bergamot, iris, violet and a sweetish aroma reminiscent of jam. The heart note smells chypre, soapy and like a sea of flowers consisting of heliotrope, jasmine, ylang-ylang, lily of the valley and roses. The base continues to smell jammy, sweet, woody, balsamic and animalic with musk, sandalwood and cedarwood.

In the end, this is a wonderful fragrance for me. That's why my miniature can stay with me. I also recognize a similarity to Diamonds and Sapphires Parfum.
