Viva La Juicy Le Bubbly

Omg this is such a cute perfume, both the bottle and the scent are really pretty! I think from all the VLJs this one branches away from the original DNA the most, although the drydown is reminiscent to the original. At first I smelled blood orange bubble gum champagne, and it had the effect of opening a sparkling water cap and putting your nose up to it. Just a teensy bit shampoo-y, and a little bit of jasmine. I also think the mandarin opening note stands out a lot more than with the original VLJ, which is good! A fresh, champagne-y, fruity sort of feeling, you know? And of course, as is with most VLJ frags, the performance is on the weaker side. But with my VLJ noir I usually take a shower and apply moisturizer beforehand and end up with a stronger longevity and sillage, so maybe that could work with this one as well. I really want this so I can add it to my spring perfume collection!

This is a fizzy soda/champagne take on the original VLJ perfume. I can actually smell the orchid and freesia notes in this one. And despite having all the same notes from the original VLJ, this does not come off as overly sweet for some reason, which I suspect is due to the fresh blood orange and sparkling champagne that is present all throughout. I love layering it with other perfumes, but this actually can stand on its own! On my skin, it lasts a decent 6 hours and even longer on my clothes. I love wearing this on hot summer days, where the effervescence of it shines the most. This is a lovely citrusy floral, mildly sweet, and surprisingly, fresh perfume. Ultra-femme and bright, this is one of the best in the VLJ line-up!

I smell praline, tart orange, and a hint of berries. Very sweet, but thanks to some warm elements perhaps the praline and vanilla it's not too overwhelmingly sweet except in the extreme heat of near 100 degree weather. It's a little fizzy but not in the way of something like Fancy Love. But the difference is I do enjoy this one whereas Fancy Love is not for me. It lasts awhile if you layer two sprays. Spraying another spray after a couple of hours refreshes the smell and then it's almost too strong.

Oh my goshhhh is this such a nice summer scent...I got to smell it and was taken aback by just how fresh it is! My friend told it it's pretty sharp and citrus-y, i think i could see that but the opening wasn't as harsh. It's really good!! Reminds me of when I'd go to the resort in the summer and drink a bunch of sprite at the bar <3 It's very unique, a really nice standout in the VLJ series, I'd love to get it somewhere down the line. Only downside is i think it might be TOO seasonal lol

my first somewhat expensive perfume, i got it for my 19th birthday a bit ago. it feels very grown up to me while still carrying a sweetness to it that i enjoy. i don't have a very keen sense of smell so i can't say what exactly it smells like, but it's very fresh and sparkly. the set i got also came with a travel sized vial of the same perfume and the original viva la juicy, which was very nice to have. the bottle is also gorgeous if that's of importance (which it very much is to me)
