Viva La Juicy So Intense

I don't own this fragrance yet, however I did try a test of it at Dillard's. At first spray, I would have agreed with you all on the "smells the same as Viva La Juicy" thing, but I let it sit on my wrist, and it transformed into something much nicer than I've ever smelled coming from a VLJ bottle (except for VLJ Gold Couture, which wins all Juicy fragrances in every way, in fact all womens' fragrances in general, by a landslide) I'd compare it to having a snowcone with finally enough syrup in it to taste delicious. The original VLJ is skimping on the syrup. I am absolutely certain that they smell different, it is just a very subtle difference.

I was able to get my hands on this last year and since I realized discontinued, I blind-bough immediately. I imagined the bottles of this and original VLJ would be identical, but nope. The bow this bottle has is solid. I must admit this smells nearly identical to the original. BUT it's got an extra something I do love. Maybe it's extra preline? Fruity/sweet heaven. And It DOES last longer than originally VLJ but nothing amazing (like 4-5 hours). I would have to say, this and VLJ noir are my favorite of the VLJ collection

I bought Viva La Juicy when it was first released and loved it (bought and used 3 full bottles) and got annoyed because the longevity would decrease with each bottle purchase... until down to literally 1-2 hours. My very first bottle lasted 7 hours! I loved the scent but got fed up with decreasing quality. I blind bought this on the internet for a good price. I'm glad I took the risk! Smells exactly like the original that I remember, but lasts around 5 hours. Love it! Update: lasts 10+ hours on clothing

This is great! I’m not sure who thinks this is weak but from the OG to this there is a huge difference in strength, lasting power, and sillage. You can smell this all around you once it’s on. I think this is a great addition to an already great line up! This is the OG just better performance. I find this one slightly sweeter and more rounded but that’s if I’m being picky. The main difference is performance. If you love the OG or the gold this is almost the same just better overall in any category!

I absolutely ADORE the original Viva La Juicy. It's such a happy, uplifting, effervescent fragrance. But I literally had to re-apply it every 20 minutes or so to get any scent at all. I purchased this in the hopes it would be a longer-lasting version of the original. It is, but unfortunately not by much. This lasts about 40 minutes on me. Hoping to get my hands on the Extrait version to see if that fares any better.
