Bling Bling Couture Couture
Couture Couture from Juicy Couture I got to know in early 2014, wore it for a short time and then soon gave it away.
Not that I didn't like him, no. Exactly at the time when I bought and wore it, I was personally not well because of my "marriage drama" at that time. The scent reminded me of the painful experiences of that time and so I gave it away. The past is now over and at some point I decided to try the scent again. I always try to separate negative experiences from a scent, even if it does not succeed immediately and takes time. It's like somehow casting off a prejudice through confrontation.
If at first I only had a small 30 ml roundish bottle like an egg, this time I get myself the 100 ml bottle. It was not until afterwards that I learned here on Parfumo that this egg was a special edition. But here I find the normal bottle much more splendid and the "egg" much simpler and simpler.
The bottle is already very conspicuous, and makes in each collection what für´s eye ago. It is probably supposed to remind of a monstrance, a golden sacral church ornament for the altar, which is supposed to carry a host in the middle.
Now for the fragrance. The fragrances of Juicy Couture are mostly sweet-fruity and gourmandig with very kitschy flacons. And it's cute here too, yet there's also something adult resonating here.
By and large I would describe it as flowery-sweet with a slightly oriental base.
I recognize orange blossom, jasmine and something fruity, which must probably be the plum.
The base is oriental with warm ambergris, sandalwood and vanilla.
The fragrance remains compact and sweet throughout, with a slightly tart undertone that may come from the plum.
The Sillage and the durability are very good. You have to be careful not to get too much of it.
I am glad that I have made peace with the fragrance.
