But I still hate you all!!!
*seeeeeeeeeeeeufz*!!!!
Juicy Couture... the brand that still gnaws at me today!!! And all because of you! Yes, feel bad!!! :But wait, you don't know why... but well, I'll tell you! I told you this exactly one year ago in a Kommi (to Juicy Couture Viva La Juicy Sucré), but I tell you again... so that you have a guilty conscience!! D
Anyway, I was looking for a sweet birthday present for a very dear friend. Well, and luckily I could hear from her that she wanted exactly the Sucré :)

So I looked for the scent in the city. And while I was looking for the scent in the shop (... in the ladies department of course), I looked around as always, if there were ladies in the area and if I was alone or not, so that I could test the scent on myself at the same time to comment it for you stupid packs. I found the scent and finally sprayed it on and stood there sniffing the scent until a totally beautiful and hot saleswoman came up to me. And disaster took its course.

Because as far as I remember, she asked me if she could help me. Well, I still had the bottle in my hand and probably still sniffed my arm, so I got more nervous because of the women's scent in the presence of a lady and also because of the lady herself (and what a, wow!!!), because I sometimes feel stupid when I spray a women's scent on myself in a shop. Since I had often told this problem about myself here, you always recommended me for such situations that I simply say that the scent was for my girlfriend! And that's exactly what I did!!!

I, who was already an eternal single back then, actually said directly in the face of one of the most beautiful saleswomen I have ever seen that the scent was FOR MY FRIEND!!!!! Are you checking this? That's right!!! Just at that moment I was in the eyes of this hot hot saleswoman someone who was already spoken for (which would be nice)!!! Aaaaregrghhghghrh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I probably wouldn't have played in their league anyway, but still aaaaarghrghrgh! D
Why couldn't I just switch and say it was for my mother, aunt, cousin, sister or something???? WHY????? But no, THIS advice came much later (and I myself didn't think about it in this situation because of my nervousness!!).

Yes,... THAT still gnaws at me TODAY,... and I will probably always be reminded of it when I will test a Juicy Couture fragrance... well thank you very much too, arrrgh!!!!!
Well at least I could test this scent here on a sample, baaaah!!!!

The fragrance:
Hm, I smell sweet-fruity notes at the beginning, mainly amber and caramel as well as (rather indefinable) berry types. Little by little the sweetness also comes from the jasmine, which at times becomes stronger than the amber. Vanilla is usually the base note, but you can smell it quite early. Still rather weak, but you notice that this fragrance quickly makes the fragrance soft and powdery.
As expected, vanilla will be the strongest note later on, but since the fragrance is so soft and warm and soft, the fragrance even looks like an airy, delicious vanilla cake every now and then (possibly also because of the berry notes still present in the background), which of course reinforces my phrases like "you are sooo biteable with it" mega crassly! Oh and the jasmine is getting weaker and weaker in the base, by the way, but that doesn't matter, because then you can smell the amber all the better, which also smells damn great here.
Very much much later the smell smells only after intensive vanilla, which is also beautiful :)
The Sillage and the shelf life:
The Sillage is quite okay, but I expected something stronger for such a fragrance. Well, it's fine, he's good smelling, so he's not really weak.
The shelf life is damn good, the fragrance lasts about 15-16 hours, but half of this time it only smells of vanilla :D

The bottle:
The bottle is rectangular and filled with a golden yellow scented liquid. On the front, you can see the Juicy Couture logo in gold and the brand name in pink, both of which can also be felt by hand. The neck is chrome-plated and a black silk ribbon was attached around it. The transparent lid is multi-edged and looks like a gemstone. All in all a really great bottle.

*sigh*
I knew it. I knew it. As expected, the fragrance has turned out to be super great, as long as you like sweet fragrances. And as always, I can imagine such a fragrance totally great on a woman, who just has to look even more great. Great, sexy, hotter, tastier... you know, the usual fancier stuff of a single, which I so often give back here and all with it already abhartig nerve.

*seeeeeufz*
I really have to remember:
I'm looking for a scent for my mother, not for my girlfriend!
I'm looking for a scent for my cousin, not for my girlfriend!
I'm looking for a scent for my sister, not for my girlfriend!

*lakeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeufz*
I bet all those sentences above I'll have forgotten the next time I'm sure, crap crap!

You stupid perfumas (yes, today I'm NOT nice :D) but I can only recommend this fragrance. As described above, I'm sure that a fragrance like the Viva La Juicy Gold Couture here will make you look damn tasty and sexy when you use it, oh...! (even if it's only in my imagination,... I'm pretty sure that my imagination is really true!!).

Mrnrmrmr, what am I supposed to write in capital letters,... just go test this fragrance, it smells really great. Oh yes, it can be used almost like an all-rounder, so in spite of its sweetness it can also be used in spring and (perhaps less dosed) in summer, because it doesn't radiate so oppressively intense.

Well then, until the next Juicy Couture fragrance, where I will certainly whine all over you again, but I will probably continue to grumble!!!

"Girls Just wanna have fun" (Women's Perfume Review Vol. 2)
Moin you dear Parfumas (and you dear Parfumos). After my wife liked my review of Scandal so well, I am compelled by her to review more women's fragrances. (Honey, if you're reading this - "coerced "may have been a bit thick)

(For all the impatient, below starts the fragrance review)

For the past 3 days now, our evening routine looks like this:

Glad to finally have closing time, I rise from my workplace which is also our dining table, on which I have placed since the beginning of the pandemic makeshift my home office PC. (In these times we are lucky to have a safe workplace at all!) I enter the living room and turn to my wife.

"Honey, what do you want for dinner tonight?"

She looks up from the sofa at me and considers.

"I don't know, I'm pretty beat from work." (I have the utmost respect for my wife's work, she gets up every day to pursue her dream job full of dedication as a geriatric nurse in a nursing home, despite lousy pay and disastrous working conditions she loves her job - honey, the world is grateful for people like you!!!)

Still she looks at me thoughtfully.

"Otherwise, do you want to just have something delivered?" i try to take the thinking out of her. But still she seems to be brooding. Only now do I notice that she is looking in my direction, but somehow through me.

"Honey, are you okay?" I ask her.

"Hmm? Oh yeah everything's fine. Do you want to just order something else?" she replies.

Somewhat amused and at the same time a little confused I grin at her and reply:
"You haven't been listening to me at all have you? So tell me, what were you thinking about just now?"

Her gaze avoids mine a little and I see that sardonic grin that I love about her, among other things.

"You wrote about Scandal a few days ago, didn't you?" she says, looking at me with a broad grin by now.

"Let me guess, now you want me to write about another scent of yours or?" i finish her thought.

Grinning even wider, she jumps up from the couch, takes a step towards me and gives me a kiss on the cheek. Immediately our lady dog rises from her seat as well, wagging her tail and signaling "hey, I'm here too, love me." My wife immediately squats down and pets Bonny behind both ears. As she does so, she looks at me and says:

"You're the best. You get to decide on what scent, too. And you get to decide what we order. Oh, by the way - I'd like a shrimp pizza."

And before I can even reply that I
get to pick the food after all, she leaves the room grinning....

What you don't do for the people you love. But my dear, don't worry. Reviewing a little about a fragrance is no great deed and I'm very happy to do it. Even though a week ago you looked at me like I was an alien when you realized I was writing about perfumes on a forum. :-)
I love doing it and it's no comparison to you making me happy and giving me purpose every day. But let's finally get down to the nitty gritty for all of you who have stuck it out this far, Viva la Juicy Gold Couture, so let's get started:

The bottle: 8/10

Kitschy, girly, pompous - in short, visually for all those who stand on kitschy just the hammer. (my wife loves the bottle) The name also fits the design. Also the sprayer is quite neat. A big drawback, however, there is. You can not see the fill level unfortunately.

The fragrance:

Let's give ourselves to the scent:

The fragrance starts with the Viva la Juicy typical berry potpourri. I must really say, fruity berries can Viva la Juicy simply. Incredibly fruity, delicious, sweet and delicious. Also, I find that VlJ fragrances always smell a tiny bit like clear apple juice. But that's not meant in a negative way at all. True, the apple is not listed. But the association to apple juice I have every time I smell. Very discreetly joins the party after a short time a very slight floral influence. However, really very restrained. The fragrance is not at all floral, but throughout mainly fruity-sweet. The fragrance doesn't have a lot of complexity, but it doesn't have to. After 20 minutes you know how you will smell now until the end. Because now, in addition to the berry-fruity notes, the other two main actors in the form of caramel (no burnt sugar, more like toffee) and vanilla, have pushed to the front. And it's these three main players that the fragrance thrives on. In contrast to the normal VlJ, the Gold Couture is a real little gourmand due to the caramel and the vanilla, but it also remains fruity until the end. Simply delicious.

In short: initially juicy-berry-fruity, then after a short time comes vanilla and caramel to it. The fragrance simply a sweet-fruity dream.

Durability: 5/10

Biggest drawback of the fragrance is the meager durability. But I think that this is so intentional, because all VlJ are very moderate. After 5 hours is completely closing time. Too bad.

Sillage: 5/10

Here too, after 2 hours unfortunately already very close to the skin. Without pocket atomizer unfortunately only a short experience.

Compliments: 10/10

The thing is incredibly popular. My wife has not yet received a single negative feedback and especially men love this fragrance. He is sexy without screaming loudly, sensual without wanting to seduce. A great, pleasing fragrance.

Wearability: 9/10

The fragrance is actually wearable all year round. Despite sweet gourmandnoten goes the also in the summer. The moderate durability and sillage makes him even in high temperatures not exhausting or penetrating. He also fits into any situation, date, everyday, party - even in the office goes the. Only at over 25 degrees or during sports he fits perhaps not quite so well. Otherwise a sweet all-rounder, not only for teens or girly girls :-P, but also at an older age still wearable. Maybe not necessarily to the business outfit. But hey -why not?

Price / performance: 9/10

The fragrance is to get again and again for 40.00€/100ml and for this price more than okay. Of course, this fragrance is not the great perfume art, but Viva la Juicy does a very good job in this price segment. They stay true to their line. And for 40,00€ you get here an incredibly delicious, sweet fragrance that you will love.

Conclusion:

Gold Couture is the best from the house of Viva la Juicy. Gourmandig sweet fruity fragrance that is much more than just a girlie fragrance. Flacon you have to like (we do), H/S unfortunately not good, but at the price you can re-spray without a guilty conscience. Very clear buy recommendation and definitely a blind buy candidate. Do you like the fragrance pyramid? Then you like the fragrance in any case!

So my dear, there you have the salad. I hope that's enough. To all of you who made it this far - my condolences - but you made it.

To all the perfumas, always remember - yourselves are your greatest strength........

To all Parfumos - .....and our greatest weakness. :-) (that's what we love them for)

To my wife - We're not ordering tonight though!!! So unless you want to. Then yes we do, but I'm picking. Pizza. With shrimp...damn, I give up. :-P

As always hanseatische greetings ⚓

Caramel crisp with floral twist
I was sure I had already written a comment on my signature perfume.
I've known this perfume for ages. It has already become so natural that I have not even openly announced my love.

Even though the description sounds funny. To me, the perfume smells like wannabe bitchy suburban diva with lots of fluff and high heels on. :D (no, I'm not meant, wear more often comfortable than fancy things hahaha)

The perfume doesn't have a great progression. It starts with a warm amber vanilla note (which reminds me of the basic principle of the body spray Amber Romance of Victoria Secret whereby vs is more fruity) with minimal, slightly floral angehauchtem or angetüpfeltes small something at white flowers.

It's nothing special or strongly exciting in the end effect. But that's exactly why it crowned itself my signature scent years ago. Whether summer or winter, good or bad mood, office or go out in the evening - the perfume can do everything and smells in every situation depending on the dosage top and absolutely appropriate.
Compliments I get with this perfume un lied i m m e r.

It becomes with the time however strongly Karamell lastiger. In fact, I find it to be the only caramel perfume on the market where I can clearly smell it out on my skin. Unlike the juicy noir, I also find that this perfume has no age limit, as it has less fruit and more warmth.

The longevity is extreme on me. Holds with me until the next day, so I smell the perfume throughout on my bathrobe. It does not want to go away and it should not.

Honestly? I love it, an uncomplicated and good smelling immergeher. :) Woman definitely smells sexy

It goes
I bought this perfume because of a us an acquaintance YouTubers. Of course I had mega expectations, which were unfortunately disappointed. Do not get me wrong, the fragrance is okay, but my expectations were just way too high. It smells like floral, berry caramel. Viva la juicy Gold is the perfume version of a garment you reach for when you don't know what else to wear. Not particularly striking, kind of 08 15, but not strikingly bad either. What I really think is bad, on the other hand, is the bottle. If it hadn't looked so awful on my shelf, I probably would have kept the perfume. As it is, I gave it to a friend as a gift. If at least the pink writing would not be

Somehow I don't get warm with you...
(First of all who read my statement about this fragrance I talked good at the beginning of this fragrance but now after some testing I have formed my own opinion in the meantime). Many as I noticed, have become attentive by Jeremy Fragrance to this smell which is not otherwise with me or better said was;))) In his videos you have very clearly noticed that he loves this fragrance to women and does not get enough of it:D And yes I admit I look very, very much like his videos because I have also discovered through him great fragrances for me that I still love very much until now:)))) I have also asked myself here on Parfumo to see how others perceive this fragrance and the reviews of this fragrance are also very positive as I can see, so I wanted to test again to get a more accurate opinion .... Unfortunately you can't find the Juicy Couture fragrances in normal perfumeries in Switzerland, also for this perfume I had to drive to the Douglas.... Well, anyway, I looked around and finally found the Juicy Couture fragrances, I took a test strip and sprayed Juicy Couture Gold Couture and waited 2min. for a while I looked at Parfumo to see what the fragrances are for this fragrance. The fragrance is described as sweet, gourmandig... After reading the scents I kept the test strip under my nose... I smelled neither a delicious caramel note, nor vanilla... Admittedly I was mega disappointed because everyone was always raving about how sweet and gourmandig the fragrance is....it's NOT! Unfortunately
I didn't smell caramel or vanilla on my skin either. All I could smell were flowery and fruity notes, which were unfortunately also very synthetic in my nose:(( On my skin it hardly held, I smelled about the 3rd hours and then I could smell nothing more on my skin. Personally I also think that you can find good fragrances in the drugstore that smell exactly the same and you don't have to spend 60Fr. for it. Whenever I smelled on my wrist the scent of Escada celebrate now came to my mind. If someone is looking for a cheaper variant of the Gold Couture this is actually just the right one. Somehow I cannot imagine at all with this smell that a man should be a magnet to be honest... It smells actually like every other celebrity or better said like every other Escada fragrance.... But also there I say simply times before from everyone has a different taste and mine has unfortunately not become that. For girls who still go to school or do an apprenticeship it is actually quite okey, but there are better ones too! It was just my personal opinion about this fragrance if someone else is of the opinion, I understand that too! It can be that, which smells only with me not so caramel but with others again already.

Warm, cozy. Nondescript, yet cuddly. No conspicuous notes, but draws you back for a second hug. Confident, sincere, welcoming. Fall.

Berry caramel, nothing changes much from that. It’s more on the fruity sweet side, the caramel isnt a warm heavy caramel, it’s a lot lighter
