Premier Jour
Nina Ricci Premier Jour Eau de Parfum is a floral fragrance with a sparkling, sweet character that opens bright and gradually turns warmer and more enveloping as it develops. A sunlit citrus opening, with a hint of mandarin, gives way to a full, rich floral heart in which gardenia and orchid lend a soft, creamy fullness rather than a sharp or green edge.
As the scent settles, a powdery, slightly lactonic softness emerges, with a dry woody thread running beneath the florals and a gentle musky warmth beginning to show. The base is smooth and comforting, with vanilla and sandalwood giving the fragrance its intimate, sensual finish long after the first impression has faded.
Premier Jour suits a modern woman who enjoys a fragrance that moves with her through the day. It feels light and approachable in the morning and grows cosier toward evening, which makes it equally at home in a professional setting, on a casual outing, or for a night out. Its balance of brightness and warmth means it works across spring, summer, fall and winter.
On the skin it sits at a moderate distance, noticeable to those close by without filling a room, and it generally lasts through a full day of wear.
