Pros & Cons

  • The opening is fizzy, bright and fruity‑citrusy – a fun, lively start.
  • Spraying it on makes me smile; the fragrance feels youthful and energetic.
  • Lasts a full workday on most skin
  • Strangers ask what it is
  • Grenadine keeps the rose from going boring
  • Strong sillage without being overwhelming
  • Excellent value for the longevity you get
  • I can't really say I love Ma Dame; it's not my sort of thing.
  • Some users find the scent overly sweet and synthetic.
  • Grenadine is polarizing, not for everyone
  • Opening orange can feel sharp at first
  • Some find it too sweet in warm weather
  • Can feel heavy on dry skin in humid conditions
  • Lacks the sophistication expected from JPG's main line
