What does Into the Joyful - Number 2: Les Heures Passent smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are moderate: it neither pushes itself on the room nor vanishes quickly. Voters link it mostly to daily wear, leisure and the office, and few choose it for evening. It reads as feminine, though some find it masculine.

Bergamot, lemon and mandarin orange give it a fresh, green, fruity feel. Ginger adds a spicy edge, while amber, tonka bean and musky notes settle that freshness onto a sweet, soft base. Zara Sunrise on the Red Sand Dunes (Eau de Parfum) and Bon Parfumeur 004 Gin Mandarine Musc have a close profile.
