What does Joy (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

Mandarin orange and bergamot give it a bright citrus side, while jasmine and Grasse rose form the floral core. Sandalwood, cedar and patchouli add a woody base, and white musk brings a powdery, creamy softness. Fruity and sweet touches keep it light.

Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick spring and summer, and leisure, daily wear and the office are the most common settings. It reads feminine and modern. Monotheme White Musk and La Rive My Delicate have a close profile.
