Marc Jacobs Daisy Kiss is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2017, created by Richard Herpin. Daisy Kiss opens with Pomelo, Violet, and Apricot, settles into a heart of Rose, Osmanthus, and Peony, and dries down to a base of Musk, Cedar, and Ambroxan. Marc Jacobs's Daisy Kiss carries a Favourite verdict, a floral-led wear.

A divisive flanker that aims for a youthful, fruity-floral charm but often misses the mark. It's either a pleasant, subtle summer spritz or a sharp, fleeting disappointment, depending on your skin chemistry and expectations.

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.

Its mild projection and light, fresh character make it highly suitable for office wear and casual settings, as it won't overpower. However, its poor longevity and lack of 'wow' factor limit its appropriateness for dates or formal events where more presence is desired.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Geraniol from Rose

Other declarable allergens

  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Daisy Kiss opens with a burst of tart pomelo and sweet apricot, softened by a hint of powdery violet. The heart unfolds into a delicate bouquet of peony, rose, and the nuanced apricot-like facet of osmanthus. A gentle, clean musk and cedar base provides a brief, airy foundation, finishing with a whisper of ambroxan.
