Fashionable For Women

Fashionable opens juicy and bright, mandarin orange and grapefruit lifted by a soft African orange flower that nods to Couture Couture's sparkling start. The heart is unmistakably jasmine-led, plush and feminine, rounded by honeysuckle and a slightly tart plum that keeps the sweetness from turning syrupy. As it dries the composition warms into an oriental base of amber, vanilla and creamy sandalwood, settling into a compact, sweet skin scent. Against the genuine Juicy Couture, this budget version trades some of the original's mature, vintage-leaning depth for a brighter, more straightforwardly sweet floral, and the projection and longevity come up a little short of the real thing's six-to-eight hours. Even so, it keeps that romantic, dressed-up jasmine character that gave Couture Couture its stand-out place in the line, making it an easy reach for cooler-weather dates and evenings.
