Sarah Jessica Parker SJP NYC is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2016. SJP NYC opens with Wild Strawberry, Mandarin, and Osmanthus, settles into a heart of Rose, Gardenia, Honeysuckle, and Mimosa, and dries down to a base of Musk, Sandalwood, Vanilla, and Rum. Sarah Jessica Parker's SJP NYC carries a Favourite verdict, a fruity-led wear.

SJP NYC is a vibrant, divisive celebrity scent; some adore its jammy strawberry-booze cocktail, others recoil from what they perceive as artificial sweetness and a lack of sophistication. It's a proper love-it-or-hate-it kind of fragrance, so try before you buy.

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.

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.

  • Geraniol from Rose

Other declarable allergens

  • Sandalwood Santalol from Sandalwood
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk
  • Vanillin from Vanilla

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

Explodes with juicy wild strawberry and a zesty mandarin kick, quickly softened by a delicate bloom of osmanthus, mimosa, and gardenia. A sweet, slightly boozy heart of rum intertwines with creamy vanilla and soft sandalwood, offering a fruity-floral fusion with a hint of powdery warmth. It's an energetic, playful burst of sweetness with a smooth, comforting base.
