Bal des Promesses: A New Oriental Floral from Henry Jacques
Henry Jacques introduces Bal des Promesses, a new Oriental Floral fragrance for men and women. Launching in 2026, the perfume plays with contrasts: bright yellow flowers, a fruity-spicy heart, and a soft amber base.
The name translates to “ball of promises,” and the scent keeps that promise. It opens with a luminous shimmer, settles into a powdery warmth, and leaves a lingering, intimate trail.
The opening features ylang-ylang, geranium, and mimosa. Ylang-ylang lends an exotic, sun-drenched glow; geranium adds a green, aromatic freshness; and mimosa brings a golden, pollen-soft effect that feels almost silky.
In the heart, cinnamon and peach strike a lively balance between spice and luscious fruit. Iris then introduces a refined, powdery texture that gives the fragrance a tailored, elegant feel.
The base is built on vanilla and amber. These two notes create a smooth, gently resinous drydown that stays close to the skin yet remains perceptible for hours.
Accords of yellow florals, fresh spice, amber, aromatic, sweet, powdery, warm spicy, rose, woody, and herbal notes define the composition. The result is a modern oriental floral that moves from a bright, aromatic opening to a soft, sensual finish without ever feeling heavy.
This is for those who love floral perfumes with body, powdery textures, and a touch of spice. It also suits anyone looking for a true unisex scent that works from day to night.
Bal des Promesses is an elegant, multifaceted addition to Henry Jacques’ lineup. It promises warmth and grace, and delivers both in a fragrance worth remembering.
