Released as part of Eris’s “La Belle et la Bête” trio in 2016, Belle de Jour shares its name with a provocative late-Sixties film starring iconic actress Catherine Deneuve. In its unexpected combination of materials, it also brings the film’s themes of desire and double lives to our skin.

As the perfumer behind ERIS’s Belle de Jour, Antoine Lie bottled a stylish and surreal study in contrasts. Creamy orange blossom and sensual jasmine spiked by herbal green coriander unexpectedly reveals briny seaweed, swirling around the beating heart of spicy Pimento Berry, juxtapositions as suggestive as freshly laundered sheets and sweaty skin.

There’s something traditionally beautiful about Belle de Jour’s floral side, and something a little dirtier and more risqué about its salty marine elements. Then again, who determines what’s elegant and what’s indecent, in a perfume or elsewhere? And do we really have to choose?
