Day Off is officially considered a feminine fragrance, rooted in the floral family.
The sillage is moderate — present, but never overpowering. It stays on the skin for a good while — longevity is firmly in the moderate range. Behind this fragrance stands France and its rich perfumery heritage. Day Off unfolds gradually, effortlessly, and with great refinement — a perfect choice for day or evening.
This fragrance is like a great story: once you've tried it, you keep coming back. The official website of Day Off — http://www.nouveauparisinc.com/nouveauparis/.
