I really don't mind Juicy Couture perfumes at all, and Couture La La Malibu might be a nice summer scent since I live by the beach, but Birchbox's close relationship with them is no secret to anyone at this point bahahha.

They won't stop until we've all gotten every possible Juicy fragrance sample. Considering there's Juicy Couture, Viva La Juicy, Viva La Juicy La Fleur, Viva La Juicy Noir, Couture La La, and now Juicy Couture Malibu and Couture La La Malibu, we will never see the end of this freaking brand.

Were most of these already established perfumes when they were sent out or does Juicy just keep making new perfumes every six months? If the latter, then we seriously will never seen the end BAHAH.

When I joined in the summer of 2012, Viva La Juicy La Fleur had just come out and was sampled in Birchboxes upon its release. Then I believe it was Viva La Juicy Noir, Couture La La, and now the two Malibu fragrances. I don't think it's going to end!

the only upshot to this is i feel like most boxes that have perfume in them generally have bigger samples, at least from my own experience.

@kawaiimeows @peridotcricket @queenofperil I know I am in the minority but I am looking forward to the Juicy fragrance! I have been debating buying the double ended rollerball off Ulta. I do not have perfume marked as something I like/dislike and it seems like it has been a while since I got one (well I did get HP Journey last month).
Which means I will not get it this month since I want it! So to all the people who get it and do not want it, let me know if you don't like it!
And Juicy reminds me of Victoria's secret in the amount of fragrances they put out! They seem to do about 2 per year! I used to work at VS and a new one was coming out all the time (we usually got one for free)!

@kawaiimeows as far as the OPI it's definitely on the press release (linked) along with Smashbox as specifically stated they will be included in the selections.I'm thinking it's not going to happen and they're gonna get some angry people though cause with the Ruby Wings (2 possibilities) and possible OPI that would be a lot of nail polish?

I will not rest until I get Viva La Juicy La Fleur La La Malibu!!! I'm sure it'll be my signature scent!

It is my sincere belief that they do in fact make a new one every six months just to have a new product launch. There will never be an end to the variations. We will never see the end of these until the company goes out of business. It kind of reminds me of the many variations of Snake Oil released by Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab (yes, I am a BPAL cultist), but with one important distinction: I can actually wear Snake Oil and most of its variations without STABBITY PAIN. And the variations don't all smell almost exactly the same. Every single Juicy scent smells exactly the same to me. Bizarrely, even though they all have the exact same base, BPAL somehow manages to make all of the Snake Oil variations smell wildly different. I would have no clue that Green Tree Viper used the same base as Temple Viper if I didn't know this was the case.
@lovepink -- You can have all of my Juicy [insert variety name here]. I may even have a few old releases that I would love to evict from my residence. They love sending me that crap. I love not having a searing migraine.

I will start this off by saying I am 37 and for some reason, Juicy smells good on me. I know it smells like some teen age party girl in the bottle, but on me it works somehow, I have no idea.
That said, I have NEVER received a Juicy sample from BB haha. But yes--they do seem to have a surprising amounts of variations and love for the company.

I've wanted to try BPAL for a long time, but I'm scared to order. I'm kind of picky about scents, and I don't want to spend money on anything I haven't smelled first. I know I tend to like bergamot in fragrances, but that's about it as far as what I know I do like. Anything that's along the lines of Viva La Juicy or Wonderstruck by Taylor Swift (those two fragrances smell exactly the same to me, which is waaaaaaaaaay too sweet) I don't care for. I also don't tend to like anything with the word "noir" in it (think the Tom Ford noir fragrances).

I can completely related to not wanting to have a migraine and evicting fragrances from your home that do that! I like sweet sugary scents, and light florals. I am wearing Chloe as my weekly fragrance this week and it smells like diapers on me. Not dirty ones but not exactly the smell I am going for! I am also buring the Toasted marshmallow from BBW right now and it is so sweet smelling it makes my teeth hurt! My husband thinks it smells like banana bread! Lol
I checked my BB box history and the last time I got a fragrance was May 2013! 2013 was my year of fragrance in BB as they sent me one like every month until May, then no love until January!
