Toy 2 Gift Set
December is when most fragrance changes hands, and the Moschino Toy 2 Gift Set is built for that week of the year when everything has to be bought at once.
The scent is a modern floral with fruit on top. Mandarin orange and apple come first, sweet and tart together, gone within about fifteen minutes. Magnolia is the heart of it and the reason it is recognisable, creamy in body with a bright edge that keeps it awake. Jasmine deepens that, richer and heavier, while peony pushes in the opposite direction with something thin, clean and cool. Then the fragrance lies down. Musk holds it against the skin, sandalwood adds a smooth creaminess and amberwood finishes dry and warm with the faint mineral quality that keeps the sweetness in check.
Eight materials and no complications. It is a fragrance that suits almost everybody, which is exactly the quality you want in something bought as a present rather than for yourself. At eau de parfum strength it will last a full day of work and travel, though it stays polite throughout rather than making an entrance, and while warm weather suits it best there is enough weight in the base to carry it through a cold morning.
Boxed, it needs nothing else doing to it, and the name is familiar enough to be read instantly by whoever unwraps it. The composition is credited to Alberto Morillas and Fabrice Pellegrin.
The house has worked out of Milan since Franco Moschino presented its first womenswear collection in 1983, with Rossella Jardini as creative director from 1994, the year he died. Perfume is licensed: Euroitalia has produced it since 1987 and in September 2024 bought the perfume and cosmetics trademark in full from Aeffe.
