Modelled profile
A grand bouquet of tuberose, rose and jasmine over iris, sandalwood and a trace of civet. It reads opulent and old-world, aldehydes and powder lending a plush veil. Rich and full, with an animalic warmth at the base.

How Joy (1930) smells, measured

Projection, risk and texture describe how a fragrance behaves in a room and on skin. Where wear reports are thin, those scores rest near the middle by design, so a mid-range reading here is a statement about the evidence as much as about the scent. Warmth and sweetness are derived from composition and do not carry that caveat.
