the scent of fine floral soap
During my visit to the Galeries Lafayette perfumery on Friday morning, I not only had the opportunity to test the two "big fragrances" from Jean Patou; I also received a sample of "Joy forever".
This allowed me to gain an impression of this Eau de Toilette in a calm manner over several hours.
The lavish floral scent of "Joy" is not only rejuvenated here; it is also quite diluted.
For everyday use, I often prefer the Eau de Toilette: it seems more appropriate to me on some days.
With "Joy forever", it is simply too light, too fleeting for me.
The scent reminds me of the fine floral soaps that I order directly from a soap factory in Marseille and that I still - very old-fashioned - keep in my linen cupboard.
I had expected something in the style of the Eau de Toilette of my "Sublime" and was now disappointed.
Surprisingly, this "whiff of nothingness" lasts quite a long time; even after hours, there is a very faint floral scent present.
This variant of "Joy forever" will surely find its admirers; personally, I find it just too bland! - What a pity!
