Sephora Fragrances Sampler For Her - Viva La Juicy Review (1/10)


Hi Guys,

Back when Sephora.com had their friends and family 20% off sale I ordered the Sephora Collector's Edition Fragrance Sample For Her kit for me and the guy version for my husband. The basic idea, for those not familiar, is that you spend $75 (or in my case $60) to get 10 deluxe sized samples of their top selling fragrances. Then, there is a voucher included that is redeemable for 1 full-size fragrance of your choice. I saved our kits for Christmas and am just now going through the fragrances so thought it would be interesting to post reviews of the girl kit as I try to find my favorite sample.

The first fragrance is :



Viva La Juicy
Redeemable for: 1.7 oz eau de parfum
Regular Price: $69

Notes:
Wild Berries, Mandarins, Honeysuckle, Gardenia, Jasmine, Amber, Caramel, Vanilla, Sandalwood, Praline.

Style: Tantalizing. Teasing. Tempting.


My Impressions:

Young. Fruity. Yummy. Smells a bit like what the strippers smell like at Daisy Dukes in Iowa. (Hey, I went to college in a tiny town that was 6 hours from the nearest city (Chicago) and we got bored one weekend!) This is what strippers smell like though. Young, fruity, yummy, and a bit cheap.

Me: Can you smell this? I need confirmation that it smells like strippers.

Husband: Strippers smell like strawberries and cream to me.

Me: Does this smell like something I would wear?

H: No, it smells like a cross between a 14 year old girl and a stripper. Maybe a 14 year old stripper?

yikes

Overall, I can see a teenager wearing this during the summer. Not really for me.
