All perfumes uses different fragrances in their top, mid and base notes. Juicy Couture uses fragrances such as watermelon, mandarin, passion fruit, apple, tuberose and patchouli to blend with some woodsy notes in their fragrance, which has become very popular since premiering in 2006. These fragrances differ slightly from traditional fragrances used in perfume to give Juicy Couture not only its name, but a unique signature scent of its own.
In the art of perfumery, there are three notes that are used in creating a perfume. The top note is the one that you will catch first as the perfume is applied. It is also the quickest to evaporate. The mid note will last a while longer and the base note will be what is left after the perfume reacts with your body chemistry. Because everyone has a different body chemistry, no perfume smells the same on any two women.
Years ago, the most commonly used fragrances in perfumery were floral scents, wood scents, Oriental scents (which were named for the essential oils derived from that region of the world), spice scents and citrus scents. The fragrances used in Juicy Couture perfume include woodsy and citrus with some fruity scents that have lately come onto the scene with regard to perfume. Scents like watermelon, apple and other fruits were not used in many traditional perfumes. Modern perfume makers, however, have begun experimenting with more fruity scents that have become extremely popular with younger women.
No young woman wants to wear perfume that her grandmother would have worn years ago. Today, most women look for a scent that is fresh and alluring at the same time. The drive to create a scent that can be worn for both casual wear as well as evening wear is one of the reasons Juicy Couture perfume was developed. The fruity blends make it ideal for day wear, while the woodsy and slight Oriental blends make it also ideal for evening wear. This combination of different scents comes together to create a unique blend of scent that is used in this fragrance.
Many perfumery companies today are experimenting with fruity scents as the trend seems to be gravitating towards fragrances that are not as heavy as those in the past. Those with an overwhelming scent that are not appropriate for casual wear have been seen as too old fashioned by some younger women who are looking for something fresh. Hence, the use of fruit scents such as those derived from watermelon, passion fruit and other fruits is what makes newer perfumes such as Juicy Couture perfume, more appealing, especially to younger women who are looking for a perfume that they can wear to school, work and out in the evening.
