Le plus beau jour de ma vie translates as 'the best day of my life' and the idea behind its creation was to have a scent that would immortalise a special day.... be that a wedding, a birthday, a royal garden party ...............
Upon first sniff we are greeted with quite a strong but distinctive aroma, very much reminding us of the impact that a fragrance such as Poison, Flower Bomb or Angel might make, but at the same time gentle. It is a sweet, floral fragrance, conjuring up memories of sweet shops with its sugared almond element alongside the delightful orange blossom, rose and angelica, in fact it reminds Sally of Angelique Noire (another beautiful Guerlain scent) which also list angelica as one of its ingredients.
Words that spring to mind as an overall impression are innocent, virginal, clean - it seems to have the ability to make you feel special, caressed and beautiful, to be the centre of the room without having to dance on the table. If this was your 'special day scent' we are pretty sure you wouldn't arrive 'wearing the same dress' as anyone else in the room, you would be unique!
It has staying power too, applied at lunch time this would see you through to early evening, when just a little additional dab on the pulse points may be required. Applying this more frequently would become too much and spoil its allure and (given the price) it is something to be treasured.
Pink pepper (our aroma of the week) adds a warmth to it without overpowering the gentleness of the florals and vanilla seems to tie the sweet and spicy elements together effortlessly.
If you were wearing this on your special day those around would definitely notice you and remember you for it, and should they come across this scent again a smile will emerge on their lips as they recall sharing your special day, whatever it may have been.
