Juicy Couture Couture Couture is a sweet fruity floral in a fancy bottle that looks like it comes from a magical queendom. I have to say that I love the whole idea of the Juicy Couture brand, with their color and their chaos and their cuteness.

I especially love their slogans: “Be Loud”, “Go Overboard”, “Make a Mess”, “Show Off”. These are truly words to live by – but maybe not to smell by. I know these wildly popular perfumes are aimed at 13-year-olds, but do they have to smell like red candy mixed with pink candy mixed with purple candy? Turned up to 11?

Yes, they do. Didn’t you read the slogans? “Be Loud!” “Make a Mess!”

Couture Couture is the third JC offering, after Juicy Couture and Viva La Juicy. After Juicy Couture’s shriek-y orange blossoms and Viva La Juicy’s caramel-coated fruit-loop detergent musk, I was hoping that Couture Couture would offer a little nasal redemption. Something that revealed a secret sophistication.

Something that wasnt what it is: an even-Steven, let’s go halvsies, 50-50 blend of Juicy Couture and Viva La Juicy.

But after I fought my way through the sharp, synthetic-smelling white florals and the sugary musk, I found a bit I really liked. Maybe I’m just imagining this, but there’s almost a hippie incense-y smell in Couture Couture.

I like that hippie incense-y smell! It gives this eau de parfum some boho funk. Overall, I’d say the effect of wearing Couture Couture is like drinking grape Kool-Aid in a head shop. “Go Overboard!” I’m Katie Puckrik, and I smell.
