JOY was the second most expensive perfume in the world

In the history of perfumery, three fragrances have been counterfeited (imitated – fraudulently reproduced) so extensively: Chanel No. 5, Patou’s JOY, and Patou’s 1000 (Mille). Be very careful—genuine products, especially those by Patou, are extremely scarce on the global market. “Keep your eyes peeled,” as a saying here in Greece goes.

Foundation Fragrance Award (2020) : The Fragrance of the Century

INFORMATION : Seven to eight different varieties of Rose and Jasmine were used in the production of this product. Its concentration and proportions differ from the Parfum.

Production of EAU DE JOY (Eau de Parfum) ceased in late 1998.

The iconic, transparent, luminous crystal bottle was designed by architects Louis Süe and Andre Mare, following the Golden Ratio (or Divine Proportion) of the Greek mathematician EUCLID, applying mathematics to art in the belief that it is aesthetically pleasing.

The product was distributed in Greece by LAFAPHARM S.A., PHARMACEUTICAL AND COSMETICS INDUSTRY, 73 Menandrou Street, Athens, and we had exclusive sales rights as authorized distributors.

PERFUMER : Henri Almeras; in 1955, the fragrance was reformulated by Henri Giboulet.

Using a product of our own, we show you what the luxurious EAU DE JOY (Eau de Parfum) bottle looks like.
