The Jupiter was created around 1967, just before Neil Armstrong did his thing on the moon. Oringally made with Parfait d’Amour,
using a curaçao base Amour featured extracts of flowers and vanilla. The modern substitute is the similarly floral Creme de Violette plus a touch of both orange curacao and vanilla. The reeuling color evokes the lighter colored bands of Jupiter if you look at it just right.
