The Story

Demi-Jour by Houbigant, launched in 1987, is a Floral Aldehyde fragrance that captures the essence of refined femininity. The composition opens with aldehydes and bergamot, creating a fresh and powdery aura that transitions into a heart of rose, violet, and ylang-ylang. These floral notes are balanced by orris root and jasmine, while the base features sandalwood, musk, oakmoss, and cedar, providing warmth and depth.

Application Tips

Apply two sprays on pulse points. The aldehydes and bergamot will fade within the first hour, but the woody and musky base notes will linger throughout the day.
