The strongest of the Juice trio
A strong, deep fruity rose with cyclamen. The rhubarb is noticeable in "Juice+" and gives it a light tartiness. The amberwood is more noticeable and I can pick up the patchouli when I sniff at my wrist (which is fine by me because I'm not the biggest fan of patchouli). I would not wear this to the office because it's a bit much, imo, but I would wear it during the day when meeting with friends, buying groceries etc. Still: This is a rose scent with fruits, not a fruits scent with rose.
If I have to give it a season's category: late summer to early autumn. It's too deep for a pure summer but not warm enough for a pure autumn.
Personal ranking of all three Juice scents:
1. Juice-
2. Juice+
3. Juice

Not as fruity and sweet as expected
"Juice" is a fruity rose with a very noticeable cyclamen note. I thought that it would way more fruity and sweeter (based on the top notes), but the red fruits just lend the perfume some fruitiness but they're in the backseat. This is first and foremost a rose scent. It isn't something that I would recommend to anyone who wants a perfume where red fruits play a big role. Towards the end, the scent gets a light amberwood note but I only notice it if I sniff my wrist directly. There's zero noticeable rhubarb, which makes me sad because I like rhubarb in a perfume.
Good vanilla & fig combination
I would consider the scent as a good introduction perfume to fig as a note as long as you don't mind vanilla. Because it develops a bit from a fresh fig leaf scent (very green, slightly sharp) to a sweet vanilla fig (at the very end of it, it's more vanilla with a hint of fig than sweet vanilla AND fig). It's a very pleasant, warm scent but it isn't for someone who wants a pure fig scent because the vanilla is such a noticeable note. Hence, my opinion of it being a good introduction to fig as a note. (Plus the brand isn't expensive and you can buy samples, too.)
Lovely salty, beachy tropical coconut
A beachy tropical coconut with a hint of salt. The white florals are soft, the tiare gives it a soft monoi oil vibe. It's on the sweeter side but not extremely sugary. It gives me the feeling of being at the beach and putting sunscreen on (vibe-wise). I wouldn't consider it as a pure sunscreen scent but it goes into the direction. Others might think that you spent the day at the beach if you wear it. It lasts surprisingly long for a body mist.
If you like beachy tropical coconuts, you can't really go wrong with Beach Skin. If you want to dip your toes into that area: it's a good starting point since it's € 38 for 236 ml (the small size with 88 ml costs € 25, so I would recommend just getting the larger size to have more for your money).
Not exact dupes but if you like one, you might like the other:
Carner - La Playa
Maison Margelia - Beach Walk
Tom Ford - Soleil Blanc
They all go into the beachy coconut/sunscreen territory without being copies of each other.

Fruity rose
Fruity, slightly sour, rose. The blackcurrant is noticeable but still hidden underneath the rose. There's a hint of woodiness in the later stages of the scent but that might be the vetiver that my nose turns into something else. It's ok as a scent but it isn't a scent for me. It reminds me of vintage 5 star hotels and vintage red lipsticks.
