Josephine Baker is dedicated to the famous dancer from the beginning of the 20th century. She emerged from poverty and racial intolerance and delighted azdience all over USA and Europe with her sexual frankness. Her fragrance is a wonderful cocktail of citruses, spices and gourmand notes. It is developed by Cecile Matton. The composition consists of grapefruit, champagne accord, cardamom, jasmine, curry jungle essence, black pepper, gourmand accords, labdanum, sandalwood and lorenox. Josephine Baker was launched in 2010.
very very similar to Nina Ricci "Delice D'Epices",almost the same.Only without cinnamon note.Nice!
This fragrance came to me as a bit of a disappointment.
Josephine Baker is an icon. A symbol. Once called the most sensational woman anyone ever saw. I think I expected something sexual and bold, sparkling, sensual, extravagant, maybe vintage. Specially from a perfume house that is not afraid to release some very controversial fragrances...
Josephine Baker is nothing like this. From the start till the end it smells a bit like an aftershave. Quite masculine, harsh, peppery-woody with a touch of spice and sharp lemon. I did not get any sweet notes or jasmin, I am a bit hesitant with the champagne, it does not play a very prominent role here.
The whole fragrance is quite flat and does not develop much, and there is not enough nuances that I think are necessary to reflect the fragrance's name- it simply does not do justice to Josephine Baker.
