Womens Fragrance

This year retro is in and all the flower power images of the 60’s are back in vogue. Peace, Love & Juicy Couture fits the mold and they have done surprisingly well with this, their newest fragrance. Where Couture Couture was too artificial and had an almost alcohol type underlying scent, this fragrance is refreshingly Sixties and it is just a lot of good fun.

No one will ever call Peace, Love & Juicy Couture a top shelf fragrance, but it is actually quite nice for the price and really complements the fashions currently trending. The first stages are bright green and lemony, perhaps a little too herbal, but hey! That’s the Sixties for you. Anyone who lived in the era would tell you that green fragrances were ‘happening,’ and the fruitier the better. After a bit it turns a bit floral, but thankfully not overly sweet. It is in a warm, yet pale base, with – you guessed it – patchouli to complete the package. (The Sixties wouldn’t be the Sixties without patchouli!)

If you are looking for the notes in Peace, Love & Juicy Couture, you would find Meyer lemon blossom, wild hyacinth, sweet apple, black currant, sambac jasmine, star magnolia, Malibu poppy, honeysuckle, linden blossom, orris, patchouli and musk. There just isn’t a way to look back on that time without either remembering patchouli and musk. This may never become a designer fragrance for the elite, yet it is absolutely a perfect complement to that 60’s retro look that is so fashionable at the moment. Worn with any of Juicy Couture’s line of clothing, this just seems to make perfect sense.
