fruit punch in a can
I had almost blind-bought this one because the bottle is so adorable, but I never saw it at a price I'd be willing to pay for a blind buy. Now I feel glad about that. I was doing an errand at a Sears store today & saw this, so I had a spritz.
There's a fruit punch in the US called Hawaiian Punch that has been around since the 1930s and proudly contains FIVE PERCENT fruit juice. Its original and best-known flavor is "Fruit Juicy Red." It's understandable that it is described by a color rather than a flavor because one can't pick out any distinct type of fruit in it.
For the first two hours, Wonderstruck makes me feel like I'd spilled some Hawaiian Punch on myself. Not unpleasant, but nothing found in nature. It also had a slightly metallic aspect that made me think of the tin cans that HP used to come in. After that, the fake fruit dies down and there is a pleasant hour or so of soft artificial vanilla. I don't love the vanilla phase but, since it has no sillage at that point, I at least don't feel ashamed to be an adult woman wearing it.
Luckily for me, I also find the bottle cheaper-looking and a less vivid blue in person, so I won't feel the need to buy this for the bottle.
