Charles Jourdan Inspiration Eau de Toilette 30ml Spray

Charles Jourdan Inspiration Eau de Toilette is a 30ml floral fragrance for women — a delicate, slightly powdery signature scent that pairs sparkling mandarin with a romantic rose-and-jasmine heart. Composed by perfumer Jean-Marie Santantoni, it captures the elegant Parisian femininity of the long-established French fashion house.

About Charles Jourdan

Charles Jourdan was the celebrated French luxury shoe and fashion house founded in 1919, with a fragrance collection that translated its refined aesthetic into perfumery. Inspiration, launched in 1998, sits within the brand's portfolio as a delicate floral signature — designed to feel romantic, easy to wear and quietly elegant.

Fragrance notes

• Top: mandarin orange
• Heart: jasmine, violet, rose
• Base: soft floral and powdery accents

How it wears

The fragrance opens fresh and slightly fruity — sparkling mandarin gives an immediate impression of brightness. The heart turns delicately floral, with jasmine, rose and violet creating a refined, slightly powdery bouquet. As it dries down, soft floral accents wrap the composition into a gentle, slightly skin-close finish that lingers softly on skin and clothing.

Who it's for

Inspiration is for women who love romantic, easy-to-wear floral perfumery — wearers who enjoy soft, feminine signatures, fans of vintage-style French fragrance and those building a casual everyday bottle. It is also a thoughtful gift choice thanks to its broad appeal and friendly price point.

How and when to wear it

This is a true daytime fragrance and works particularly well in spring and summer when the floral character feels most flattering. Spray onto pulse points — wrists and the base of the throat — and avoid rubbing the wrists together so the rose-jasmine heart can develop. The 30ml format is also a smart, handbag-friendly size.
