Who hasn't dreamed of being a naughty debutante, leaving the debutante ball at dawn, with her ball gown turned into a "minicrini", to join a group of dancers dressed in sequins and feathers, fresh from the Lido, and drinking pink macarons with apple tea?
Now this dream can also be smelled. It is a classic, romantic and seductive perfume. For Gela Nash-Taylor and Pamela Skaist-Levy, Juicy Couture is a labour of love. It expresses their deep passion for the splendour of Paris; Marie Antoinette, the Ritz, boxes of "macarons", pastel and haute couture, evoking the distinctive character of elegance, beauty and decadence - from Cecil Beaton and "candyfloss" hairstyles to the Moscow Cat Theatre - that infiltrate Gela and Pamela's Californian imagination. Not surprisingly, the Juicy Couture fragrance products are presented in beautifully detailed packaging. Exit: Watermelon, mandarin, pink passion fruit, marigold, green apple, with water hyacinth and crushed leaves. Middle: Tuberose Absolu couture wrapped in wild rose, princess lily and creamy tuberose. Base: Crème brulée and vanilla.
