Bal À Versailles by Jean Desprez for Women 3.4 oz EDT Spray

Bal à Versailles by Jean Desprez Eau de Toilette is a classic women’s fragrance with an opulent blend of citrus, florals, warm woods, balsams, vanilla, and animalic nuances.

The fragrance opens with bright bergamot, lemon, mandarin, and neroli before developing into an elegant floral heart of Rose de Mai, jasmine, iris, lilac, lily of the valley, ylang-ylang, and leather. Cedarwood, sandalwood, benzoin, Tolu balsam, vanilla, civet, and melilot give the drydown its warm, richly textured character. Its distinctive profile is especially well suited to evenings, special occasions, and anyone drawn to expressive vintage-style perfumery.

Bottle Description: Presented in a rounded clear glass bottle with warm golden accents and a gold-tone cap, Bal à Versailles reflects the ornate character associated with this longstanding Jean Desprez fragrance.

At Perfumes LA, we recommend it for fragrance lovers seeking a sophisticated, warm floral-woody scent with unmistakable classic character.
