I am a complete and I do mean COMPLETE sucker when it comes to scents. I wholeheartedly fall into the “ooohhh that bottle is gorgeous, and ohhhhh that scent smells divine” category. For the summer I keep things light with a hint of citrus and a bit of fruity. However when the colder weather months start to take place- although I am not sure California will ever have a COLD month, I tend to reach for a richer more sultry scent. So with the weather here attempting to get a bit under control and rich to the 70’s , tis’ the season and I come bearing a Autumn edit of my current scent picking….
Now I am a lover of all things GLAM, especially when it comes to a perfect fragrance. Something about a beautiful bottle sitting ever so beautifully on my vanity surrounded by other gorgeous bottle of wonder. Everytime Juicy Couture tends to release a new scent, I immediately think – I NEED to add that bottle to my growing collection. One part beautifully crafted and uniform with the crystal rich bottle and gorgeous bow, one part amazingly scented to perfection once the scent hits your skin. Now I am no stranger to raving about my obsessive love for Juicy Couture fragrances { you can check out previous ones here and here}, a few weeks back I covered the launch of the much anticipated new Juicy Couture scent Viva La Juicy Gold Couture, and raved about its gorgeousness, but didn’t really touch right down on my long lasting affair with the scent. So, in Makeup Life and Love fashion here are 3 reasons you NEED Juicy Couture Viva La Juicy Gold Couture in your Autumn line up:
THE SCENT: Have you ever wondered what a #coutureoverdose smelled like? Well stop looking, because it seriously is in the form of Juicy Couture Viva La Juicy Gold Couture. Rich luxurious notes of wild berries, honeysuckle, caramel, vanilla and golden amber just scream glamourous all over. The scent is warm, long lasting and sensual that literally I have been getting compliments left and right, when people are asking “What are you wearing? It smells amazing”. Compliment away, you all know a girl loves a good perfume compliment.
THE BOTTLE: Let’s talk about the bottle- like I said I am ONE that adores the Juicy Couture bottles. I love that they are simplistic yet luxe at the same time. The Viva La Juicy Gold Couture is one that doesn’t disappoint either. A frosted gold bottle with the royal Juicy Couture crest and a hot pink letter spelling out “ Couture”, all topped with the signature crystal perfume topper that Juicy is known for and wrapped with a black lacy bow. Everything about this bottle is perfectly crafted so that it literally allures you saying “ YOU NEED this NOW for Fall”.
THE SEASON: When Juicy launched this scent with the idea that “ All that glitters gold”, they geared it towards the colder, cooler months of the year. Something about gold and warm tones usually screams Fall, however the scent itself is literally a universal year round scent. Fruit and sweet enough to bear the Year long Summer we have in California, yet warm, cozy and sensual enough to bring in the colder months. This perfume smells like perfection. I for one have been wearing this scent in constant rotation for the past few weeks and I can honestly say that I am a bit obsessed with the #coutureoverload, a small bottle of this glorious gold bottle will set you back about $72 USD for a 1.7 oz, or $92 for a 3.4 oz- but it is well and I mean WELL worth it as it will get regularly spritzed in your autumn arsenal.
I am sure it won’t be long until it is time to hopefully throw on some heavy duty winter wear or in California’s case break out a light sweater- but don’t worry the #coutureoverload will be there to bring into my winter fragrance edit.. Stay tuned….

Berries and vanilla sound nice! The bottle doesn’t do much for me, but I rarely consider that when buying a fragrance, anyway..though it does determine which bottles stay out..and maybe keep after they’re empty. Lol
