About this fragrance

Joy was created by Henri Almeras in 1930 and built its reputation on the sheer quantity of jasmine and May rose in the formula. It is a floral aldehyde: a bright, soapy sparkle over a dense bouquet, finishing on a soft animalic warmth from musk and civet. This is a classic in the fullest sense, opulent and unhurried, and it suits someone who wants a fragrance with presence rather than something quiet.

Buying guide What unboxed and tester sizes mean

Fragrance notes

Top: Aldehydes, peach, green notes, citruses
Heart: Rose, jasmine, ylang-ylang, tuberose, orris root, lily-of-the-valley
Base: Sandalwood, musk, civet

How it wears

The aldehydes give a clean, effervescent lift in the first minutes before the rose and jasmine heart opens out and dominates. It settles into a powdery, faintly animalic base of sandalwood and musk that sits close to the skin. Best in fall and winter, and best suited to evenings and formal occasions rather than the office.

Size and concentration

75ml (2.5 oz) Eau de Parfum spray. Eau de Parfum carries a higher concentration of fragrance oil than Eau de Toilette, so it sits closer to the skin for longer and develops more slowly through the day.
