Fröjd
by Svensk Parfym
Fröjd is a delicate, fruit-forward perfume centered on a bright cherry accord, balanced with woody and aromatic elements. The opening features a crisp, juicy cherry that quickly evolves into a more complex composition, combining maraschino-like sweetness, dry vetiver, and subtle ambergris for depth and intrigue. It's not overly sweet, with a fizzy, aromatic quality that makes it feel refreshing rather than cloying. The drydown reveals a clean, soft woodiness with musk and ambergris lingering close to the skin. While long-lasting stamina is moderate, lasting up to 12 hours for some, the sillage remains light to moderate, making it ideal for daytime wear during spring and summer. Its character is unisex but leans slightly feminine, offering a whimsical, energizing quality that feels careful and intentional rather than bold or overpowering.
