Viva La Juicy Gold is a sweet rich cocktail. You will find plenty of caramel and vanilla inside. Many people, male especially, are raving about this fragrance and I thought I’m going to love it too because I am a fun of the original Viva La Juicy. Nevertheless, my experience turned out to be quite a different story.
Straight after the application, the scent sets well and offers you a pleasant creamy taste; however after a while, it changes its structure and goes off. I remember sitting on the sofa in my living room and smelling something uncomfortable. I was wondering: “What is this strange smell? Is it coming from the outside? Or did the cats puke somewhere in the room? Neither of them. It was Viva La Juicy Gold suffocating me during a hot day.
So, either August in Europe is not a good month for this scent or there is just too much cloying caramel. I’m inclined to believe the latter. 10/100
