So what does it smell like? It was a sweet and spicy white floral oriental fragrance for women with a pronounced bittersweet chypre base. The predominant jasmine theme is delicately laced with citrus, rose and ylang ylang, supported on a soft, woody, mossy base.

"Thirty years as a top-selling perfume is the record behind Corday's 'Toujours Moi'; to celebrate such fame a sister perfume was brought out last summer, 'Toujours Toi'. The row of Corday bottles on the dressing table must also include 'Fame', a light perfume, if one is blond, or 'Tzigane', a spicy scent for brunettes. 'Jet' is discreet enough for all complexions."
