What does Joyful smell like?

Longevity is moderate and sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin. Most voters pick spring and summer, and it is mostly worn for daytime, leisure and the office. It reads feminine and modern.

It opens with melon, blackcurrant sorbet and mandarin orange, giving a fresh, aquatic and green start. In the heart, nectarine, violet leaf, pink peony and magnolia add a soft floral note. In the base, honeycomb and sandalwood add some sweet depth, while Florymoss® keeps the green thread going.
