Joy by Dior Intense Eau de Parfum takes a bright citrus and floral opening and sets it on a base that is unusually warm for this kind of fragrance.

Neroli and bergamot start it. Neroli is a cool white flower material, clean and bright with a green bitterness running through it, and bergamot is sharper and more immediate, the smell of the peel rather than the fruit. Jasmine is the whole of the middle, which keeps the structure clear: it is soft, full and faintly animal, and it carries the composition from the bright opening into the body of the scent. The base is where the word intense is earned. Vanilla is smooth rather than sugary, tonka bean adds a dry sweetness with a faint bitterness behind it like the inside of an old biscuit tin, sandalwood brings a creamy, milky grain, and musk binds the whole base together and keeps it on the skin.

As an eau de parfum it has genuine staying power. The citrus goes quickly, the jasmine holds the first couple of hours, and after that it is the base you are wearing, which is warm, soft and close rather than loud.

It reads as feminine and works best in cooler weather and in the evening, though the clean opening keeps it wearable in the daytime too. It suits anyone who likes a flower fragrance but wants something substantial underneath it. Two sprays will see out a long evening, and the base is what you will still catch on a scarf the next day.

Dior's perfume and cosmetics arm is part of the LVMH group. The house started in Paris couture, with a first collection in February 1947 and a fragrance launched beside it, the founder treating both as one profession.
