Is " je ne sais quoi" widely understood in English?
Have I used it correctly and naturally in these sentences?
1. I like the photo's rustic quality. It also has a je ne sais quoi that makes it very pleasing to look at.
2. She's not attractive by traditional aesthetic standards, however, she has a certain je ne sais quoi that makes her very desirable.
3. I can't explain why I like that film. It has a je ne sais quoi that makes it very appealing but I can't explain.
4. The house is different from others in the area. It has a certain je ne sais quoi and appeal that makes it distinctive.
5. Your dress is unconventional but it has a je ne sais quoi that makes it stand out.
6. The perfume she tried had a peculiar aroma, but it had a je ne sais quoi, a sort of French sexiness that pleased the nostrils.
