I Love Juicy Couture

I came across a 100 ml, lightly used bottle that was at least 80% full. Even though it was a tester (not for sale), it still had its cap which was cool. Because I really love "Believe" by Britney Spears, I bought this one as well. The bottle is camp. I love it. It is fun. It is pretty heavy and large. When I sniffed the cap, I was instantly reminded of "Believe". Now I have both of them on each wrist. I agree that they are pretty similar but certainly different. They share the same DNA. Keep in mind that "Believe" is one of these fragrances that changes according to the weather probably due to changes in my skin. Today is the 31st of August and the weather is starting to get colder. While they both have a fresh, slightly minty quality, "Believe" is more floral while "I Love Juicy Couture" is more fruity. The red apple in the latter is particularly noticeable, making it sweet and sour. The fruits in the former are still there but they are less noticeable. The former is also more shampoo-ey and stronger, the sharp fresh note is stronger. It certainly lasts longer than the latter. Both are floral but can absolutely be enjoyed even by people who do not love floral fragrances because they are not overbearing. While "I Love Juicy Couture" technically lasts for a few hours, it is a skin scent after the first hour. You definitely have to be heavy-handed with this one. At its best, Britney's perfume lasts for many hours and you can still smell it throughout the day. "ILJC" loses a point in the originality department because "Believe" came out earlier and was done better. Despite that and the fact that its performance is disappointing, I still had to vote with a "love" because it is a very pretty scent that is suitable for summer and work. Even when it is hot outside, it is very comfortable to wear and since I cannot wear bold fragrances to work, this one is perfect. It does not really project which means it is unlikely that it will offend anybody. I would love to try it in the autumn and winter. "Believe" by Britney Spears: ✓ stronger and more long-lasting ✓ smells fresher ✓ more floral and less fruity ✓ gorgeous bottle "I Love Juicy Couture" by Juicy Couture ✓ fruitier with sweet and sour notes that smell pleasant ✓ floral but not overbearing ✓ gorgeous albeit camp bottle

I Love Juicy Couture is a fun fruity floral, much in the same vein as a Victoria's Secret summer fragrance. Its bottle alone hints at the kind of kooky frivolity you're in for with this one. The mandarin orange-apple-red currant combo almost hints at a beverage of sorts. It lives up to the "juicy" quality implied in the name, and the honeysuckle note is very pleasant. In the base, I get more of the amber and musk than the patchouli. It's casual and lighthearted, the kind of fragrance you'd wear on a jeans & t-shirt, or sundress & flip-flops, kind of day. It doesn't smell "cheap," just not serious, either.

Oh my goodness. All my blind buys today have been bang on awesome! Woo! Lol I hope you feel my excitement. Anyways at first spray I was unsure if it was something I'd enjoy as much as I do. There's a smidgen of a blech smell at the start, am wondering if it is red currant? It dissapears withen a minute or so and turns into this beautiful, feminine, sweet, sophisticated and fun fragrance. I can't wait to wake up tomorrow and wear it for my long walk 😌😄 I can't say I've smelt such a scent before either. I'd take a long inhale if I smelled this in public. Hoping I can share the same effect! Yum!

I love it! At the first spray it's a mix between the unfogettable Gucci by Gucci EDT and Viva la Juicy (pink ribbon), then Viva la Juicy disappears and the scent comes close to Gucci by Gucci and even Believe as someone already noted. The real beauty happens when it settles because it becomes fresher and less dense and reminds me a lot of my beloved XS for her EDP (2018). ILJC is a beautiful scent, my favourite type. I've got to have a backup bottle - which is gorgeous btw. The common downside of JC fragrances is weakness and unfortunately this one is no exception.

This is a nice, simple fruity patchouli scent. It feels so different than others from Juicy Couture that I've smelled (probably because it's missing caramel), and I love it! Update: Other reviews are right that it can be a bit of a patchouli bomb, BUT, it doesn't cause headaches the way that other patchouli-heavy scents do (e.g., V&R's Flowerbomb, Chanel's Coco Mademoiselle, Lancome's La Vie est Belle, YSL's Mon Paris, etc.). I think it may be the sweetness of the amber because I also don't mind Gucci's Gorgeous Gardenia's sweet-patchouli base.

This perfume smells like the first girl to get a tramp stamp tattoo in your highschool. So trashy but smells so delicious. All the boys have the hots for her. So 2000s. It smells of delicious juicy red berries and then smoothes out to a delicious sweet vanilla amber. The bottle is equally embarrassing to be seen with. I would consider decanting it into a plainer bottle if people were ever going to see me using it. The smell is addictive and delicious, even if a bit unsophisticated. It's truely a guilty pleasure to use.

I bought this scent on a white years ago and fell in love with it. I wasn't able to find it again for a long time but found it again a few weeks ago at a Ross discount store near me. This scent is not for eveyone. I WOULD NOT blind buy this. It starts off a little rough and the patchouli comes through strong but then it dries down to an ambery flower scent. The jasmine really comes through with the apple and currant. I mixed it with BBW Pure Wonder and it was divine.

Color me surprised. I've stocked up on florals and freshies for summer in anticipation of the heat, so tell me why this perfume has become such an obsession lately? If you do not like patchouli, do not buy lol. I like patchouli, and enjoy this immensely. I layer with winter candy apple to amp up the red apple note, as it doesnt last nearly as long as I would like. Beautiful fruitchouli that feels dark, slightly sweet, and impeccably sharp.

This went from a dislike to a love within a few months. I even tried to sell it, but my ebay was acting up so I gave up and kept it in my collection. Now, a year later, I'm happy I didn't sell it. On me, I don't get much of the fruitiness everyone is talking about (except, maybe sometimes the orange note). This is a musky pathcoulli with white florals on my skin. Very mature, and nice for daytime in any season.

Best patchouli frag I've smelled to date, but I also don't really like patchouli. This is a soft fruity version of the scent. It reminds me of Believe by Britney Spears but less heavy on the Patchouli. The musk and amber are blended into it at the base very nicely making this a great frag for someone who has a hard time with an overpowering patchouli note.

I can't believe how similar it is to my beloved, discontinued Amor Amor Tentation. I am so happy I bought it blindly and now I will make some back up because I am afraid it is going to be discontinued as well. Beautiful juicy tart blackberries with hint of sweetness and fair dose of patchouli. I love it!

A bite from the first perfect apple of the season, walking though the orchard on a bright and breezy autumn day. Sweet, juicy fruit with a touch of musk and patchouli to dirty it up a bit. This is perfect for early fall when the air is crisp. Don't judge this one by its bottle.

I really love this fragrance. It smells very unique & fun. The warm dry down is my favorite. Hours later I'll get subtle whiffs of a fresh, tangy-citrus, floral that's perfectly balanced by the patchouli & amber. If you like red currant, you will love this.

This smells amazing! Patchouli with red candy apple. Sweet, but balanced by the warm patchouli and soft musk. This perfume has great staying power and excellent throw. I always catch whiffs of this scent throughout the day whenever I wear it.

Another great Juicy Couture offering. Their fragrances are consistently great and there’s only one or two I don’t like. I love juicy couture is sweet yet fresh with a dose of patchouli that blends in well.

Just got this early for valentine's day. I really am loving the smell . I love the fruits smell with the patchouli and amber/musk. Nice.

Smell like believe Britney spears also like Mon Paris. Very Nice. I love it. One of my favorite!

I did a perfume review of I Love JC on Youtube.

i really like this - it reminds me a bit of mugler's angel with fruit mixed in to add a more youthful vibe. fruity, but that sexy grounding note keeps it a little more grown up, i guess that's the patchouli, i don't know, i still have a lot to learn. the overpowering word that comes to mind is youth, maybe because fruity scents always seem a bit young and cheap to me. but i put this on before bed and an image kept on floating to mind - get ready - debbie gibson's electric youth perfume. now, i haven't smelled electric youth for around 30 years, i was a child when i used to wear it and can't remember what it smelled like, but it kept on swirling in my head. i do wonder, if anyone remembers that scent, does this smell similar?

Just got this a few days ago. I've been wearing it, and while it smells good, I don't really smell it on me after a few minutes. This sprayed on a strip smelled strong, but it's totally different on my skin. Edit: I will review later when the weather is warm..maybe this fragrance will shine in the spring/summer Edit: I tried this again in spring with 70ish weather and it has lasted quite more, 7 hours and I still get whiffs of it . I'm loving it now...good fruity, yummy spring/ summer perfume. Edit: this has become my summer to go fragrance, it smells so good, green apple goodness!!
