Juicy Couture Oui

I almost feel guilty to admit that this has been my signature scent for a few years now and I've gone through several bottles. Probably because I've taken an almost extreme interest in fragrances lately and want to frolick in the same lane as some of these expert reviewers and their intricate and fascinating opinions on perfumes. Juicy Couture is typically not highly regarded, from what I've experienced. To each their own. OUI a warm weather scent - the watermelon juiciness implies a bright and leisurely time. I think it's being discontinued, so I really began to try out other scents.. and have been neglecting my bottle (it's also winter time where I am, and I've decided I want a real "winter" cozy perfume... but that's beside the point.) This perfume does have a woodier dry-down, which I've discovered that I absolutely adore in perfumes. Note that I hadn't been incredibly interested in trying new scents until lately. OUI (proper) is my favorite "version" of this line. The Splash smells like sunscreen and as if someone is trying very hard to convince you that they're on vacation. It has it's own merit but this is not a review of Splash. Glow is not very interesting to smell in my opinion, I find it to be pretty generic. To me, OUI (proper) has many things going for it. I've not known a fruity perfume to have this level of well-roundedness and be able to balance florals and woods at the same time. This also stays on my clothing for a seemingly infinite amount of time. Everyone's body chemistry is of course different, and it is so interesting to me to see others say that it smells sharp or offensive in some way. It apparently agrees with my body chemistry very well, and I do get compliments when wearing it out and about. Also my boyfriend tends to hug me extra tightly. My mom loves this perfume, too. The first time she smelled it on me, she kept sniffing my head and remarking that my hair smelled really nice. I told her that it was this perfume, and ended up giving her my rollerball from my purse. Since then, she has wanted the full set with the lotion, body wash, and edp for the last 3 Christmases! She uses them up yearly!

Wow this is a love for me! I smelt it on my grandma first, and it smelt so fresh and floral on her she immediately gave me a sample. Fast forwards, I have bought the whole set and it smells so juicy on me! Yes it does open with watermelon, but its really just fresh sweet and floral, a bit citrusy too. So for me, being still young, this is exactly how I want to smell if I want to be clean and fresh, yet still retain that youthful sweetness. The watermelon isn't overly sweet but more tangy from the citrus, its really quite unique! I wouldn't fully describe it as fruity. Clearly, this perfume is appropriate for all ages and is just the dream summer scent. It's a compliment getter because there isn't anything like it but its still simple (not basic) and enjoyable for all. Its the strongest juicy couture scent I have had so wont fade away either. What makes it appropriate is the white floral notes, which add a classy element to the scent. Although if this helps, it smells just how the bottle looks (bright and classy, young yet reserved) so if you have fallen in love with the beautiful bottle just like me, run and get it. Its unlike no other juicy couture perfume. As for the vibe, its a day by your friend's pool, reading magazines and making drinks, and really anyone can do that, that's why I say its for all ages!

This fragrance is fruity, fresh and a little sweet, but it's very unique. For some strange reason, i can't really detect the pear or watermelon. It's like they're perfectly blended together. The acai berry and honeysuckle definitely plays a huge role in how this unique scent came about. "Oui" is a playful summer scent, but it's definitely not juvenile like a lot of JC fragrances. I can definitely picture a woman in her mid 40's wearing this scent just as well as a 21 year old woman wearing this. The bottle is just as unique as the juice inside of it. It reminds me of nail polish lol. The opening is a bit strange and maybe that's why some people dislike it, but after 10 minutes, it turns into pure pleasure and i no longer understand why this fragrance could ever be disliked. The longevity is okay. I get about 4-5 hours on my skin. I'm not too sure about projection. This fragrance is inoffensive and is safe for work, outings with friends, and close encounters. For the price they're charging for it, you're getting a pretty amazing scent. I definitely recommend this fragrance for anyone, but sample it first. Scent: 8/10 Packaging: 10/10 Performance: 7/10

Ok. In spite of my ignorance of exactly what a “technowood” note is, I bought a bottle of this. I was also hesitant because there’s a tea note mentioned, and tea notes in general do not agree with me and make me nauseous. I will admit the bottle did play some part in my decision to purchase, it’s a really interesting bottle and I collect bottles as well as the fragrances. The top notes to have a hint of tea but it’s very fleeting. The main note I get from this is the watermelon. In my opinion it’s really well done and not like a cheap synthetic body spray watermelon. It really smells like when I cut open a Fresh watermelon. It’s so good! I find this lasts moderately well meaning it’s like 6 hours. There is some sillage, but it’s subtle. What I mean by this is that it won’t fill a room and leave a long trail, but it’s not a skin scent for me either. I think this could be worn in many settings without offending others, but that people will still notice you smell good. I don’t get the woody notes at all.... so alas, technowood still remains a mystery to me. I say if you like an authentically fresh fruit smell, you would like this.

From the bottle I expected another hot mess fruity cocktail. But this actually surprised me! It's very elegant, floral and sultry. Yes there is a pear top note but it fades pretty quick and you are left with a sophisticated creamy floral scent. I smell tuberose over honeysuckle. Normally Juicy Couture perfumes have a horrendously sweet honeysuckle note (like in VLJ Fleur and others). It's super cloying and nasty. This is NOTHING like that honeysuckle. IMO it's a very clean, fresh, light honeysuckle scent. It reminds me a little bit of Versace Bright Crystal and the Yellow Diamond version. Lightly fruity but mainly clean, woody, musky feminine floral. Of all the Juicy perfumes, this one is definitely more mature and along the lines of the original in that it's not a super gourmand scent. I like it a lot but it's not unique enough that I NEED it now. I'll wait until inevitably, a big gift set of this is like $30 at TJ Maxx within a year. I hate the bottle, it's super tacky. Even the VLJ bottles are cuter than this.

HANDS DOWN MY FAV SUMMER FRAG. I am definitely a winter perfume girl as I prefer warm spicy scents, so I tend to be really picky about my summer frags. I'm on the younger side so I tend to shy away from strong florals/white florals, and I really wanted a light fruity perfume for summer. Essentially, summer perfume where the emphasis was on the fruity of fruity floral. Which took a lot longer than I thought to find, but THIS. Oh my Lord. This is beautifully refreshing, I can definitely feel the ozonic description above, but in a strange way a sweetly refreshing frag. This is beautifully feminine, classy, and effortlessly light and sexy. And for a fruity perfume, the longevity is not bad. Only floral part I get on this is the honeysuckle which is relatively prominent, but I am actually pretty fond of it. 10/10 would recommend this to any younger girl as staple summer frag.

IM OBSESSED! ❤️🍉 Oui is a burst of fresh, fruity, and floral aromas - perfect for the summer. The watermelon hits you immediately upon spraying and it is quite JUICY and SWEET. After a while, Oui calms down to a mostly white floral fragrance with the honeysuckle and jasmine notes coming forward. PROS: The perfume has great longevity, especially on clothing! The bottle is pretty and fun in Juicy Couture's signature vibrant style. It manages to be sweet, but not cloying on my skin (although everyone's skin will react to the chemicals differently). CONS: If you do not enjoy strong or sweet feminine scents, this perfume may not be for you. Some may find Oui too juvenile, but I think the fresh and green notes help add some maturity to it. Oui can also be expensive depending on where and when you buy it, so be on the lookout for good deals.

This is so nice to me. Despite the other reviews I don’t find this extremely generic. It’s very pear and watermelon smelling at first, smells like sweet juicy fruits. Like literally biting into an amazing juicy pear or something in the summer. It’s also a bit “green” smelling to me which I love and think makes it kinda aquatic. Lasts super long on clothes. Only thing I’ll say is the bottle is annoying because you cant tell how much you’ve used.

I was very skeptical about this fragrant but then i decided to get it at tjmax. Best blind buy ever !! The scent is amazing ! smell so delicious and not overwhelmed ! suitable during spring/ summer. I work at the veterinary clinic and i am in a room with clients and working side by side with doctors and my tech friends so the scent is not too strong for work at all. And i get a lot of compliments from doctors !

I love this perfume! I agree with another reviewer that it is similar to Versace bright crystal but a little more musky/sexy scent. This lasts forever and you have to be careful not to spray too much. I can't believe there are so many reviews saying it doesn't last. I can smell it days later on my clothes in the laundry hamper! Maybe they can't smell very well? I'm happy to have found this scent.

I was not impressed when I first bought the roller ball a month and a half ago. I made the mistake of trying this in cold weather. I retried it today in warm humid weather - wow what a difference! I will definitely get the 1.7 oz and matching lotion for layering, but again either summer or a warm spring day only. Otherwise, it will smell sharp and unimpressive. Great job juicy couture!

Love this scent, I have reached for it all summer 2022. I definitely pick up the aquatic juicy fruit although I wouldn’t have said watermelon given the notes, I can imagine a watermelon in the fragrance. Also a sharp fresh floral in it as well. While I wish it was a little more juicy and a bit stronger it’s still an easy wear.

This is the perfect summer scent in my opinion. It smells like a fresh fruit salad with some floral to me. Layer this with Shanghaf Oud Ahmar and you will smell incredible. I don't know why people say this does not last long on them, OUI lasts on me. One of my favorite daytime scents. Perfect for work!!

Got this as a free sample. Pleasantly surprised. It's crispy and fresh. Has a watermelon vibe to it. Kind of reminds me of a combo of Ralph Lauren Cool and Madison Sq Park , two of my fave fragrances. Will be buying a full size at some point.

Just like Green Tea Summer without the bitterness- hence much better. Watermelon, Tea and the white florals is what comes out best. Refreshing. Feels like a green garden with flowers, by the pool.

One of my favs from Juicy Couture. Smells like a beautiful white floral. I hadn't sniffed her in a long time, when I tried it today, I was pleasantly surprised!

Can someone please School me on what a “technowood” note is? The ad copy said “techno wood base” so I’m just wondering.

one of my favorite warm/hot weather scents so refreshing and uplifting! bright, citrus-y, just perfect.

I Just Love Oui Beautiful just everything about the bottle to the smell I think it is different Love it

Juicy Couture Oui summer test two sprays on inner wrist i was comparing stronger scents but i got a good sampling of this. NOT the same as the other Vivas, or Lalas etc. This scent isnt what it looks like it will be, and if you smell just the nozzle it is different than what you might spray on. The colours of the bottle should be sky blue and a watery green aqua. this is fresh. i think the accords list needs turning on its head. ozonic, green, aquatic, fresh, white floral, fruity. This lasted very well for a light scent - i have had many dissapointments over the years with lighter (but lovely) scents, i have had meagre lasting power from some scents by Juicy. On me this is metallic/generic and hopeless in the beginning - a friendly store person sniffed my wrist and agreed (i didnt promt them). She was actually wearing the same scent and it smelled different on her. Later as the day wears on it improves, and then i get a generally nice perfume in the accords in the way ive relisted them above. so, fresh, ozonic/green but not massively so, aquatic no where near tap water/ocean specifically but a vibe, the florals and fruits are way down the list supporting. I will retest. :)
