Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

About

Joy of Primrose opens with a zesty explosion of bergamot and tangerine, inviting a bright smile with its juicy, citrus charm. The heart reveals a floral bouquet, with jasmine and mimosa wrapped in a smooth embrace of sweet honey, creating a sun-drenched warmth that feels both inviting and nostalgic. As it dries down, the base of vanilla and tonka bean brings a cozy, creamy touch that lingers like a gentle hug, leaving a trail that is both sweet and harmonious. It's a perfume that feels like a lovely spring day, full of optimism and joy.
