Tom Ford Beau De Jour Review

Beau De Jour is presented in an aesthetically pleasing bottle with a minimalistic design.

The stylish flacon with the ribbed immediately caught my attention. It’s a sleek cylinder bottle with a silver cap, and a clean silver label, while the juice within is pale yellow. 

Tom Ford Private Blend Beau de Jour is available as a 50, 100, and 250 ml (1.7, 3.38, and 8.45 ounces) Eau de Parfum. 

Pro Tip: Whenever possible, visit a brick-and-mortar store when purchasing perfume since you get the opportunity to actually try out the scent before committing to buy it. It is also easier to ascertain authenticity with a physical product.

Beau De Jour is no typical fougere. Rather, it’s the type of fragrance you fall in love with at the first whiff. No surprises here, as it smells super classy, distinguished, and manly.

This cologne’s fragrance pyramid is deceptively simple. The clean, crisp, aromatic elixir contains fresh lavender top notes and herby mid-notes laid over an earthy base. Don’t let this simple scent profile fool you, though, as the fragrance is so well blended it appears to have a multifaceted profile. 

Beau De Jour opens with a refreshing blast as the cool yet commanding lavender cocktail mingles with a minty core. Soon, elegant basil enters the mix, alongside green, earthy oakmoss, and floral geranium.

Not long after, these notes give way to smooth patchouli and amber accords. These lurk in the background and form Beau De Jour base notes. The fragrance progression culminates in a sweet, deep, comforting end characterized by an enticing, earthy, and ultra-masculine trail.

You will enjoy the smell of Beau De Jour as it develops to its full glory. As mentioned, the notes are artfully blended, but you can still pick out the individual notes, notably the leathery oakmoss, which is pretty dominant.

Beau De Jour sports an astronomical sillage for a fresh fragrance.

This fragrance is not only exceptionally light but also impressively long-lasting. In my personal experience, it lingered on my skin for a solid 8 hours.

Some users have even reported a longevity of 10 hours or more. Of course, individual results may vary based on your skin type and body chemistry. Regardless, you can expect this fragrance to accompany you throughout the day.

The cologne projects between 5 and 6 feet (1.52 and 1.82 m) in the first 3 hours, while the sillage is noticeable from a distance of 3-4 feet (0.91 and 1.23 m)

For optimal performance, spritz your body 3-5 times with Beau De Jour Tom Ford, and note to concentrate on your pulse points. Oh, and be prepared for unending compliments.
