Like a black a-line dress that fits you so perfectly that Michael Kors himself would chase you down to get the name of the designer because Michael knows — HE KNOWS! — that you didn’t buy that off the “last chance” rack at T.J. Maxx, and that the gifted hands of a fashion phenom somewhere must have stitched it together specifically for you.
Anyway, yeah. That’s how Jean Patou’s Joy Forever Eau de Parfum makes me feel.
Fashionable. Feminine. A girl who turns heads.
Crisp floral Joy Forever, while un-joyously expensive ($110 for a 1.6-oz. bottle), starts with a splash. After a couple hours, bright top notes of bergamot, Mandarin orange and malbanum (an aromatic gum resin) fade to a lush floral middle of jasmine, rose, orris, marigold, orange flower and peach notes, before drying down to a warm, cozy base of cedarwood, sandalwood, white musk and amber.
Just add dress and heels when you want to feel dainty and girly. 🙂
The 1.6-oz. bottle shown here is $110, and you can find it now at Neiman Marcus stores and online.
I wouldn’t mind turning some heads 🙂
The last chance rack at TJ Maxx made me laugh. It would be pretty amazing to have someone sewing clothes just for you. 🙂
Hey Kim,
Right? I would LOVE a few custom couture cat tee shirts and several pairs of stretchy pants, haha!
HAHA! You read my mind. I just didn’t want to send Karl over the edge by mentioning my penchant for sweatpants (you totally know Choupette would rat me out). 🙂
It sounds perfect! I love fruity floral scents that deepen and warm up after a while!
Hi Ankita,
Me too. What I like about this one is that it isn’t overly sweet, as some fruity florals are sometimes.
The bottle is really simple and cute. I like it! I’m a big fan of floral scents so I need to grab a sample of this
Hi Fancie,
It’s got a sort of Chanel-vibe to it, doesn’t it? What are your favorite floral perfumes, by the way?
Holy perfume! That is truly expensive! But I am not so much into flowery scents anyway- what a luck- lol! 😉
Joy perfume is a well loved classic , guess the forever version is different?? My favorite jasmine perfume is Serge Lutens Sarrasins .
Jasmine always turns terrible on me otherwise I’d try it!
