Jontue is a nostalgic, vintage-style green floral chypre with a soft, airy opening featuring chamomile, cypress, and bergamot, giving way to a rich, herbal heart of mimosa, geranium, and ylang-ylang. The fragrance is characterized by a prominent oakmoss and vetiver base, infused with subtle earthy, woody notes, creating a mature, woody-green scent with quiet elegance. It evokes a sunlit meadow of wildflowers, hay, and damp moss, with a delicate puff of powdered sweetness from mimosa and a hint of soft peach-like juiciness. The scent is refreshingly unpretentious, closer to a classic Chanel No. 19 or Giorgio Beverly Hills than a gourmand or overtly sweet floral. It performs best in spring and summer, offering a light yet enduring presence, though longevity varies——some wearers report moderate longevity, while others note it fades within hours. The improved reformulation is considered more accessible and less harsh than earlier versions, but purists may still prefer the vintage bottle for its truer, more complex character.
