What does Joyeux smell like?

It opens with Provençal lavender, mint and bergamot, fresh and herbal. In the heart, clary sage, jasmine and lily of the valley add a soft floral touch. The base leans on Mysore sandalwood, vetiver, leather and ambergris, with citrus, spicy and animal facets running through the accords.

Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good. The powdery, resinous and leathery character suits those who like the classic fougère style. Sultan Pasha Attars Joyeux and Dior Jules (Eau de Toilette) have a close profile.
