Marc Jacobs
A unique visual signature based on accords, character, and seasonality
A bright assault of red berry compote meets the exotic, slightly funky sweetness of dragon fruit—almost tropical bubblegum. Honeysuckle darts through this fruitiness like a honeyed sweetness that leans almost indolic, adding a floral whisper before the composition fully settles.
The coconut water emerges with a creamy, slightly milky presence, softening the fruit's edges into something gentler and more intimate. Orange blossom joins the jasmine to create a delicate, soapy-floral bed, whilst the fruit notes retreat into background sweetness, becoming more candied than fresh.
A thin veil of vanilla and musk remains, barely-there and increasingly abstract, whilst driftwood provides a whisper of woody structure that struggles to anchor what's become an almost ghostly presence on the skin.
Dot is a fragrance caught between ambition and execution—a fruit-forward composition that promises vibrancy but struggles to sustain it. Annie Buzantian has crafted something genuinely appealing in concept: the red berries and dragon fruit opening suggests a juicy, almost candy-like freshness, whilst the heart's coconut water and orange blossom pivot toward creamy tropical territory. There's a lightness here that feels deliberate, almost summery, as though designed for someone who finds traditional florals cloying.
The character is decidedly feminine-leaning despite its unisex classification, with an emphasis on edible sweetness rather than sophistication. The synthetic accord (52%) announces itself plainly—this isn't attempting naturalistic fruit, but rather a playful, candy-shop interpretation of it. The jasmine in the heart adds a whisper of florality without demanding attention, whilst the driftwood in the base attempts to ground what might otherwise feel entirely gourmand. It's the scent of someone young, unapologetically sweet-toothed, wearing it to the beach or a summer festival—places where its lack of projection actually works in its favour, preventing that artificial fruitiness from becoming cloying to those nearby.
