Our take on the Happy Heart Eau De Parfum

Clinique Happy Heart is a light citrus-floral eau de parfum built on mandarin orange, water hyacinth and a soft white wood base. It is the softer, more floral sibling of the original Clinique Happy, which leans sharper and more citrus-forward. The scent is clean and easy to wear rather than bold, so it suits people who want a fresh everyday fragrance. Owners rate it highly for its bright, uncomplicated character, though its light projection and moderate longevity are the usual complaints.
