Escada Joyful is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2014. Joyful opens with Mandarin, Melon, and Blackcurrant, settles into a heart of Nectarine, Violet Leaf, Magnolia, and Peony, and dries down to a base of Sandalwood, Oakmoss, and Honey. Escada's Joyful carries a Favourite verdict, a floral-led wear.

This one's a divisive fresh floral that smells nothing like its name. Some found it a 'monster' for longevity, others found it 'fleeting.' Overall, it's pretty generic and not for those who want complexity beyond a fresh, shampoo-like scent.

Its fresh, clean floral and fruity character, often described as shampoo-like, suits casual and office wear.

About

Joyful bursts open with a tangy, overripe melon and blackcurrant mixture, sometimes leaning green and aquatic. The heart blooms into a floral bouquet of peony, magnolia, and violet leaf, offering a clean, shampoo-like freshness. It settles into a soft, slightly woody base with hints of honey, sandalwood, and oakmoss, though many found these notes elusive.
