Juicy Couture Juicy Couture 2006 Eau de Parfum

I would not have given this one an award
I have been reading Chandler Burr's book The Perfect Scent, and in it he notes this perfume is "one of the best perfumes on the market, by the expert commercial technician Harry Fremont. These perfumes are ideas of the smell of our bodies in heaven." (p. 215) It even won a FiFi award! So of course I had to rush right out and try it!
I must say, I truly hope my body doesn't smell like this in heaven. It is a tuberose ambush, and the watermelon note brought to mind Jolly Ranchers. Thankfully that went away fast, but the tuberose just lingered and lingered. It smelled like hair spray until I scrubbed it off. This won an award, and is "the best on the market"?! Say it ain't so!
And the bottle...ugh. It is tacky.
I really wanted to like it and be able to say that I had an award winner in my collection. Sadly, I will have to wait for something that suits me better to come along.
