I like to have different fragrances for different occasions and after running low on my perfume for fun occasions, I put Viva La Juicy by Juicy Couture on my birthday list. And guess what I unwrapped on my birthday?? The Aroma At the heart of this fragrance is a floral bouquet of Honeysuckle, Gardenia and sweet Jasmine. The top notes have been created using a fruity cocktail of Wild Berries and Mandarin. The base notes of this fragrance however are what truly caught my eye when reading up about this fragrance because they really do sound good enough to eat. The base notes have been created using a scrumptious mixture of Caramel, Vanilla and Praline with a ...  Read the complete review

After sitting in a departure lounge for 2 hours waiting for a delayed flight to Fuerteventura 2 years ago, I spent a while browsing the perfume shops dotted about. I had a bit of an obsession with Juicy Couture at the time, I ran to the counter and sprayed the prettiest bottle - which happened to be Viva La Juicy. The perfume in 50ml cost £68 at the airport so I decided to save up my money and wait. I never did buy the perfume but my dad remembered me wanting it. This year for Christmas (2 and a bit years later) he brought it for me! Its the best present I ever got and I'm trying my hardest not to spray it constantly because I'd like it to last. I got mine in ...  Read the complete review

I bought a rollerball version of this perfume recently in order to try it out before buying and I must say I will definitely be looking to get a full size of this perfume soon! The perfume comes in a hot pink box with Viva la Juicy written on in gold lettering. The perfume comes in an embellished and extravagant glass bottle, with a pink ribbon around the nape of the bottle holding the juicy couture charm which sits the front of the bottle. The lid for this perfume is solid and the bottle itself is quite weighty so this is not one for carrying around in your handbag. Fortunately Juicy Couture sell both a solid and rollerball version of this perfume so you can buy it ...  Read the complete review

I'm more known for my love of shoes than my love of perfumes, that's not to say I haven't got loads of perfumes but shoes are definitely my first love! The two tied in together recently though when a pair of Juicy Couture shoes came with a free gift, a bottle of Viva La Juicy perfume. I've never tried a Juicy Couture perfume and for some reason thought it was a cheap budget buy (even though the shoes aren't!), so I was very surprised at the price when I looked online to see what my freebie was worth! The bottle is quite nice, this has a decanter style top which I'm not keen on as I prefer a spray. The big pink ribbon around the neck of the bottle got on my ...  Read the complete review

- - - - - - - - - - - The fragrance - - - - - - - - - - - I was surprised to find I really enjoy Juicy Couture's VIVA LA JUICY. I don't like the brand in general and I dislike their first fragrance, but I love the subtle sweetness of this. VIVA LA JUICY lives up to its name by opening with sweet and juicy notes of mandarin and a hint of strawberry. On me the top notes seem to mask the heart, so I can't detect any floral notes at all and the top notes seem to last longer. This doesn't really upset me; I'm not a great lover of floral fragrances. It's the base of vanilla, amber and creamy caramel that really won me over. Yes, ...  Read the complete review
