competent femininity
The first couple of times I tried Premier Jour, I was unimpressed. In fact, I gave it away. Maybe a year or so later, I got a half bottle of it as an extra in a swap, so I tried it again. Now I realize it was meant for me!
It's hard for me to pick out distinct notes in PJ - woody floral musk does seem like the right category for it, though. There's sort-of Jordan almond, there's sort-of flowers, there's sort-of musk. Doesn't sound exciting, does it?
But to my nose, it's the essence of competent femininity. It's your friend's mom who always knew the right thing to say when you were having a tough day. It's the nurse who presented bad news about your health calmly and with helpful information. It's the boss who took you under her wing so skillfully that you didn't even know she was helping you.
Wearing it brings out the competent and kind in me, and who doesn't want that?
