Daisy by Marc Jacobs

I apologize for the long review, but it’s very balanced: neither too floral, with a musky and sweet touch at the same time. Ideal for beginners in florals or perfumery, super versatile for almost anything, and never overwhelming.

The richest perfume in the world. I wish its flankers were still available.

Daisy by Marc Jacobs is an addictive and charming floral-fruity nectar. Its fruity and fresh sweetness emerges right from the start, thanks to the violet and strawberry with citrus accords. I usually don’t enjoy sweet perfumes, but this one isn’t cloying. It settles into the floral phase where the violet takes the lead, followed later by musk and woods. I barely notice vanilla and I’m grateful for that, as it’s well-integrated. I own both fragrances, and for me, Chanel’s Chance EDP is practically a clone of Daisy, although the latter is more intense and long-lasting on my skin, making the investment much more worthwhile. Additionally, I notice Chance smells more synthetic (I don’t have the EDT) compared to Daisy; this sweetness feels more natural, with that lovely ‘nectarine’ effect, charming and youthful, like flower nectar on a spring day. It requires quite a bit of reapplication to prolong its longevity, but given the price and the well-being effect, it doesn’t bother me. I see it as ideal for spring and autumn, with moderate fixation and projection. Its little bottle is adorable to collect, with a beautiful and award-winning design.

Fresh, luminous, and youthful. It reminds me of my adolescence and when I started dating my boyfriend. I have an appreciation for it, but the scent is somewhat basic.

On my skin, it works fantastically; it’s an easy-to-please perfume.

Got this as a gift years ago, tried it a few times, and eventually gave it away. It smelled very artificial and overly sweet, like mosquito repellent 😬😁. I see people comparing it to a Chance fragrance, which I also don’t like, so it definitely wasn’t for me.

Starts strong with violet, citrus, and red fruit. Over time, white flowers take over; combined with the citrus and musk, I didn’t end up liking it as much since violet is my favorite note. However, for those who want a fragrance with this note that’s fresh rather than powdery, this could be a good option. I agree that longevity on the skin (at least on mine) isn’t high.

I LOVE this fragrance, but… I had my sights set on it as my daily comfort scent. I had a decant and decided to order it as a Christmas gift. What a disappointment 🥹… it doesn’t last even an hour. After showering, with lotion, with wax… I’ve tried everything, but it just won’t stick. It’s a real shame; I thought I’d found my ideal perfume. Ozonic violets, slightly sweet, a sweet springtime scent with some acidic touches. It’s fresh and sweet like spring! Daisy is certainly a marvel, but for me, it projects nothing and lasts nothing… I’m heartbroken:-( I’ll try the Intense to see how that goes.

I never could get into it; I think the strawberry note alone just doesn’t convince me. Over time, it’s become very popular and easy to spot on people.

Today’s Daisy isn’t the one from before, what a shame! It’s a BBW body mist that barely lasts an hour on the skin, whereas before it was delicate and lasted longer. For almost $70, it’s just alcohol with some flowers; don’t waste your money.

Fresh florals with a bitter woody touch and a hint of sweetness. It smells comforting and easy to wear, though the trail and longevity are low-to-moderate (around 4 hours). It’s pricey for what it offers, but the scent is recognizable. Ideal for the office or elegant events.

It’s like a bouquet of wild violets with grapefruit and strawberry. I prefer the Eau So Intense because it’s stronger and has that sweet moss scent when dry, but I can’t imagine my collection without the original Daisy. I adore violets, and even if it seems generic, it’s still a marvel.

Beautiful fragrance, floral, and super fresh that radiates joy and calm, ideal for summer. The only downside is that it lasts very little, almost nothing; by 4 hours, I can’t even smell it on my clothes. It disappoints me because I love it and adore Morillas’ work, but for the price, it’s not worth it if it doesn’t last. Hopefully, they fix that; it would be perfect.

I love it! It makes me want to smell my hand all day. It works for any weather, even winter. When I put it on, I feel like a good little girl, no problems, a saint 🤣. It’s fresh but sweet, floral, and super ozonic. It lasts me about 5 hours on the skin. Tastes differ, but for me, it’s perfect ❤️.

A few months ago I went to buy creams and took the opportunity to sniff perfumes. One was Nina Ricci Luna and it did nothing for me, but this one I couldn’t stop smelling until it ran out, so I skipped the skin test and ordered it straight for my birthday (not very subtle). Since they gifted it to me three weeks ago, I haven’t worn any other perfume besides Alien when going out. It pairs well with heat, 30 degrees and up, without being intrusive. The most important thing is that it’s a gem; every time I wear it, I’m overwhelmed with happiness and my mood lifts. I know it sounds cheesy, but that’s exactly how it is. I haven’t worn the same perfume for more than a week in years. It has violet, one of my favorite notes, but not that intrusive and rude violet like Lolita Lempicka’s, but rather a greener, serene, fresh, and youthful one. It’s simple, and that’s not always bad. I understand many see it as an adolescent perfume because of the packaging, but honestly, it’s simple enough to wear at any age and in any situation. The longevity is weak, but it lasts me 4 hours without issues. And when a scent is this delicious, I don’t mind reappling to feel it again.
