Terrible. It lasts forever, but the scent isn’t for girls… it’s for quite elderly ladies. I find it extremely strong.
A fragrance with character. What stands out most is the musk or civet, the fixative that draws attention. It doesn’t go unnoticed, and I love that it’s persistent and smells ‘animalistic.’ Plus, the 50ml bottle is ideal for a handbag. I recommend it.
A fragrance with character. For me, the most potent trigger is the galbanum or civet, the fixative that attracts. It’s not a perfume that goes unnoticed, and I love the idea of it being persistent and smelling ‘animalistic.’ Also, the 50ml bottle is ideal for a handbag. I recommend it.
I tried it yesterday. While it definitely has presence, I admit it’s for older people, nothing for girls.
I tried it yesterday and while it has presence, I admit it’s for older people, not for girls at all.
At first, it’s strong and not for the young; my husband said it smelled terrible, but after half an hour, it becomes less unpleasant.
So potent! Smells like a mix of CK Obsession, YSL Opium, Chanel 5, and Verino all at once—a time bomb of a fragrance. If you have dark skin or a pH that handles bold scents well, it’ll suit you, but for me, who only tolerates florals or citrus, it was unbearable. It leaves a trail reminiscent of Dandy for Men or my grandfather’s Floyd Massage oil. This is for older women, not young girls.
Something weird happened to me with this perfume. I found old sample tubes, among them Joop Femme. I tested it and reached the same conclusion: I love it and I loathe it. It’s a terribly artificial bomb, like a faux-fur coat, a room decorated by Tony Duquette, fake and artificial. If there were a cheap oriental room freshener from the 80s, it would be Joop Femme. And yet, every little while I’d smell it again and think, ‘damn, I like it…’ At times it reminded me of Gaultier’s Classique, and at first I noticed similar sharp notes to Giorgio Beverly Hills. Then it becomes an ultra-artificial oriental, like a comic book. It smells like an Indian bazaar, cheap incense sticks, jarred spices, B-femininity, like a caricature of a glamorous woman. It’s disgustingly delicious… like eating a very dirty dessert you know you shouldn’t but you like. It reminded me a lot of the room freshener Natura used to use years ago.
Something weird happened with this perfume. I found an old box of tubes, and among them was Joop Femme. I tried it and reached the same conclusion at the start and later: I love it and I repel it. It’s a terribly artificial bomb, like a faux fur coat or a room decorated by Tony Duquette—fake and artificial. If there were a cheap room spray based on 80s oriental fragrances, it would undoubtedly be Joop Femme. And yet, every little while I’d smell it and think, ‘damn, I like it…’ At times, it reminded me of Gaultier Classique, and at first, I sensed loud notes very similar to Giorgio Beverly Hills. Then it becomes an insanely artificial oriental, like a comic book. It smells like an Indian bazaar, cheap incense sticks, jarred spices, and B-grade femininity, like a caricature of a glamorous woman. It’s disgustingly delicious… Like eating a very dirty and unhealthy dessert that you know you shouldn’t but you like. It reminded me a lot of the room spray they used years ago at Natura.
Luxurious, exuberant, synthetic, pure amber, an eighties oriental worthy of its male counterpart. It’s incredible that a German clothing brand made perfumes so warm and fragrant. I wouldn’t wear it now; it’s a child of its time, but back then it was a grand purchase.
I think it’s an underrated 80s classic, perhaps due to its boring blue box and flat bottle that don’t catch attention. But inside, the scent is something else—a distinct alternative to its eighties influence. Femme is an explosive, powdery, and creamy floral, very sexy and evocative, with a marked spicy and woody touch. It’s vibrant and enveloping thanks to the aldehydes and musk. The best part is how civet and vanilla harmonize, giving a narcotic opulence, plus sensual sandalwood. The fruits add depth and sweetness, though they don’t stand out much. Honestly, I don’t smell much rose or jasmine; they’re heavily masked by the rest. It’s very powdery (especially at first, then it calms down) and can overwhelm those who don’t like it. Use it moderately and it will reveal all its beauty. Over time, the vanilla, civet, and fruits gain strength, and maybe that’s when you’ll notice the rose. This review is for an EDT from 10 years ago; I haven’t tried the vintage.
I love this fragrance despite what others say. It reminds me a lot of Versace White Jeans and also Grand Prix by Cindy Crawford. It’s eighties, yes, but what a good one!
Brutal perfume smelling of oriental talcum powder, with an incredible sweetness and beastly longevity and projection—that ‘ensilage’ I love in invasive perfumes. I’m left with a bottle that’s already turned into resinous oil, and the little bit I have left is driving me crazy. It’s a shame it’s not easy to find; I’d happily buy more than one of this diva. I have another that smells identical, Fred Hyman’s Hollywood, they’re the same.
This fragrance is really good. Not recommended for inexperienced noses (young ones) who lack good taste for true and irreplicable fragrances. I am young (28 years old) but my perfume tastes are very selective. This fragrance is a child of its time (1987) and yet, for me, it smells like the most recent perfume they have put on the market. I challenge young and inexperienced noses to give this perfume a chance. It is a perfume only for women who are sure that the different or the old never goes out of style…
I’ve been wearing this gem for two days and I absolutely love it. However, the people around me don’t receive it with the same joy; several have asked me what the hell I’m wearing while scratching their noses. It drives me crazy. It smells like after-sun, costume jewelry with cheap perfume, animal-shaped soaps given to teenagers, decomposed talcum powder in a beach chalet, flowers, fruits, and camphorated woods. And finally, what I like most, it has a precious fecal tone that unifies the fragrance from start to finish. Joop is an artificial delight in the style of ‘The Blue Angel’ by von Sternberg. Deliberately over-the-top, vulgar, scandalous… a caprice, a fantasy. The best part comes after half an hour, when the portentous opening calms down and leaves behind a rough, talcum-floral formula that mutates into a balsamic poultice with an animal, acrid, and woody aftertaste. It is in this phase that it becomes totally androgynous, with memories of something half-gothic, half-opera, almost expressionist. It could be the perfume of the Brad Pitt from ‘Interview with the Vampire’ when recounting his life: dangerous, strangely human, suggestive, unsettling, and very sexy. Totally recommended, it deserves to be tried. Joop Femme looks fantastic on a man or woman wearing jeans and a leather jacket on a Friday night. I’m grateful it still exists at a ridiculous price. Essential for lovers of sandalwood and civet. P.S. Update: the quality of the current bottles is terrible; my review is of an old one, and when I tried the new ones, I discovered a Joop coated in an acidic finish, like horrible varnish and turpentine.
Reading the review of ‘ESPARTACO’, I felt an urge to buy this gem from the perfumery; I already want it, rather, I need it. I want to test its magic on my own skin and get transported to that world of excess and frivolity that Joop Femme proposes. I know I’ve found you and I won’t let you go…
JOOP! FEMME EDT. This fragrance has been with me for a long time, but I hadn’t shared my impressions until now, when I’m struck by a nostalgia attack. I find it very interesting: it stands apart from typical corporate offerings, although I understand it’s now made by Cotys. It seems so different from everything in my collection that it’s a declaration of independence today. Plus, it’s from 1987, my last year of high school, and it still retains that insolent 80s spirit. Upon meeting it, I was pleasantly surprised by both its performance and composition. Its trail is impressive: despite being an EDT, it can fill a room. I’m amazed in this era where even EDPs don’t project to the person next to you, yet I’ve noticed this in very few EDTs. As for longevity, it doesn’t fall short either: it could easily last over 10 hours. As for the scent, it’s clearly an oriental: I detect cilantro, sandalwood, patchouli, and musk. It has a special quality: it’s like an oriental interpretation made by a German. Because of the aldehydes? I’d recommend it for someone with a strong personality, because otherwise, it might attract unwanted attention. I think it’s for night use, though I like it so much that I dare to wear it during the day too. Greetings from Chile.
I’ve had JOOP! FEMME EDT for a while, but only recently, struck by a wave of nostalgia, did I feel brave enough to talk about it. It feels incredibly interesting: distinct from typical corporate brands, even though I know Cotys owns it now. To me, it’s a statement of independence, something truly different from the rest of my collection. It’s from 1987, my last year of high school, and it still carries that eighties spirit, a bit rebellious. What surprised me most upon discovering it was its performance and composition. The trail is brutal: even though it’s an EDT, it fills the entire room. I’m amazed because nowadays, not even many EDPs reach the person next to you, but this one does, like Ted Lapidus Rumba or the current Amarige and Poison. The longevity doesn’t fail either: it easily lasts over 10 hours. The scent is clearly oriental, with coriander, sandalwood, patchouli, and musk. It has a special touch, like an oriental scent interpreted by a German (the creator is French, but Joop! is German). Could it be the aldehydes? I recommend it for people with strong personalities, because it can attract unwanted attention. I think it’s more of a night scent, but I like it so much that I wear it during the day too. Greetings from Chile!
In 2020, I stumbled upon this gem at a provincial pharmacy for an insane price: AR$279. As a fragrance lover, I couldn’t resist. The first spray on my skin was a ‘puf’ that knocked me back; it has a strong presence, even though it’s an eau de toilette, and being decades old, it sounds different. At first, I detect aldehydes and a hint of cilantro; that note lasts 15-20 minutes before everything comes alive. Then the heart arrives with jasmine, orange blossom, and a touch of muguet, with a timid hint of the base. What clings the most is the galbanum (civet), which melts into my skin. After an hour, only galbanum, oakmoss, sandalwood, tonka bean, and a touch of vanilla-amber remain; it dries like an Indian masala incense, powerful and unique. Verdict: it has character, not for everyone. I don’t classify it by age, but it’s more of a mature fragrance. I’m happy; I lived a vintage scent (I was a baby when it launched) and learned to appreciate the complexity of perfumes from other decades, opening up a new world. Don’t buy blindly, but if you do, let it breathe and develop; it doesn’t disappoint. The final phase, before bed, lasts until the next day, about 8+ hours, alfatached and soft, like a good but subdued incense; very rich and makes you want to keep smelling it (if you like Eastern mysticism).
It’s like mixing all the 80s orientals into one bottle: a roller coaster that goes from an opening that’s sour, bitter, citrusy, metallic, and stinging due to the aldehydes that push you back, to a woody middle phase with pure sandalwood and indolic jasmine that reminds of incense cones, until a warm, powdery, animal, and sweet vanilla base that blows my mind (very similar to the base of Joop! Homme), but I don’t know if it compensates for the bad start. In any case, it’s rare, I don’t know in what context I see myself using it or if I’ll finish the 100 ml. I still stick with Joop! Homme, but I’ll keep trying to see if it can conquer me. That said, never buy blind under any circumstances.
In the decade change, many perfumes kept the identity of the 80s. This is the case with Joop. I used it, I loved it. For my outings or going to class, there was no difference. This fragrance was narcotic, simply the hangover of the 80s.
It took me a while to decide on it, but today it’s one of the perfumes that made me happiest to buy and brought me the most olfactory satisfaction. Miguel Matos is so right when he says it doesn’t feel outdated and it’s hard to find someone who smells like this. There’s so much authenticity and audacity in its composition. Amidst so many repeated aromatic patterns, it’s refreshing to still find something like Joop Femme. It’s impossible to find in physical stores, but online it’s easy. Joop Femme is very its own. It might contain the usual elements, but it doesn’t smell like the usual. Don’t expect sharp aldehydes; its are caressing. The citrus air is grounded in a bitter orange flower that enhances an avoiled, woody jasmine, almost a yellow flower. The cherry on top is amber and civet. I don’t know how to describe it without going overboard: incense sticks mixed with the sweetness of rubber dolls. Or even better: erotic toy latex. Reformulated? Synthetic? For me, let synthetic live if it’s so beautiful. I like to think it marked the beginning of a trend repeated in German perfumery: the orange opening, the jasmine heart, and the ambered, woody, vanilla base. Smell Marbert Woman, Miss Fenjal Classic, and Jil Sander Sun; they drink quite a bit from Joop Femme, though the first ones lean more towards sweetness and don’t reach the same level of lasciviousness. 80s perfumery has survived better than music or fashion. Marvels like Joop Femme remain relevant and never deserve the label ‘lady’s perfume.’ Let no one try to give it that label because they wouldn’t be right.
It took me a while to decide, but today it’s one of the perfumes that has made me happiest to buy and brought the most olfactory satisfaction (thanks for your persistence, dear Allan). How right Miguel Matos is in saying it’s not outdated and it’s hard to find someone smelling like this. There’s so much authenticity and audacity. Amidst so many repeated patterns, it’s refreshing to find something like Joop Femme. It’s very its own: it may have the usual stuff, but it doesn’t smell like the usual stuff. Don’t expect stinging aldehydes; theirs are caressing. The citrus air is grounded in an orange blossom that boosts a vanilla and woody jasmine, almost yellow. The cherry on top is amber and civet. I don’t know how to describe it without going overboard: sticks of incense with the sweetness of rubber bands. Or even better: erotic toy latex. Reformulated? Synthetic? For me, let synthetic live if it smells this good. I like to think it marked the beginning of a trend repeated in German perfumery: orange opening, jasmine heart, and vanilla, amber, and oriental woody base. Smell Marbert Woman, Miss Fenjal Classic, and Jil Sander Sun; they drink quite a bit from Joop Femme, but the first ones are sweeter and less lascivious. Perfumery is an aspect of the 80s that survived best. Synthesizers and shoulder pads aged terribly, but marvels like Joop Femme remain current and never deserve the label ‘lady’s perfume for old ladies’. Let no one try to give it to you because they wouldn’t be right.
I simply love it. I used it in my youth and bought it back recently; the scent is still the same, they haven’t reformulated it. Good sillage, longevity on clothes and skin, and the price is excellent. It’s a personality-filled perfume, it doesn’t resemble any other.
Although it’s a pretty perfume, it’s rarely too vintage for my taste. After a fruity opening, it smells like soap with a resinous and animalic base. It has powdery, musky, aldehydic, and incensey touches. In other words, it has a bit of everything we expect in a vintage, though the dry down isn’t too heavy. As it dries, I smell more vanilla and feel more comfortable. Moderate sillage and medium longevity, about 4 hours. Luckily I bought a 5ml decant, because although I’ll use it, I wouldn’t have been able to spend a full bottle. Scent 6/10, longevity 4/10, sillage 7/10, value for money 5/10, versatility 6.5/10, packaging 6/10. Would I buy again? No.
Strong and very vintage aroma. I didn’t like it, I gave it away. Truly, it’s a difficult scent to wear and nothing youthful.
Pure vintage, nothing like the ones today. I was gifted this in my teens and used it a lot; I didn’t remember its scent until I bought it blind. The opening is brutal, almost regretting it when I felt only the animalic note I don’t like in vintage, but the dry down is OMG, wonderful. On my skin, sandalwood and a super powdery vanilla stand out, leaving an exquisite aroma. Plus, it’s super affordable and has beastly longevity; it easily lasts 12 hours or more on me, who can’t keep any perfume going, I feel this all day with every movement. I’ll buy this again and again, hahaha.
Vintage perfume, nothing like the ones today. I was gifted it in my adolescence, used it quite a bit, and didn’t remember its scent, but I got an insane urge to have it now and bought it blindly. The opening is brutal; I almost regretted it because I only felt the animalic note, which I don’t like in vintage scents, but its dry-down is wonderful. On my skin, sandalwood and a super powdery vanilla stand out, leaving an exquisite aroma. Also, it’s super affordable and has beastly fixation for an EDT; it easily lasts 12 hours or more. For me, who can’t keep almost any perfume on my skin, I feel this all day with every movement. I’ll buy it again and again.
My mom used to have this and always said: ‘This one lifts you up, put it on.’ And I did. This perfume is pure joy.
It’s a potion for good taste and class, those scents that make you dream and fall in love. Nothing like the cloying pastels of today; I hope these pistachio trends disappear as quickly as they arrived, because in the end, it’s just sales. Classic Joop has its magic, but mostly it makes you feel different and distant from everyone else.
Smells like Samantha Jones straight out of the salon. There’s nothing else to say, it’s pure style <3
