So, we all know of THE American fashion company: Juicy Couture. We have all seen their sexy tracksuits, felt their gorgeoes velour, tried their lustuous handbags for size and seen pictures of our favourite celebrities wearing Juicy apparel. However, not so many of us have had the opportunity to SMELL their perfume.

Juicy Couture Perfume (yes, the perfume modestly named after the company) has been a hit fragrance since it’s release in August 2006.  Juicy Couture is now one of the most desirable fragrances in existence, as it’s scent is CLASSY, old-fashioned, and with distinctive notes of France, but in a bottle and from a company who are the height of current fashion.

The thing is, deep down inside everybody there is a longing for things from the past to return. All girls know they look pretty in a traditional dress, and all men look fantastic in a rustic suit. However, Juicy Couture is a fragrance which IS a tradition, but with touches of pink and watermelon, and it’s fresh, non-musky hints, it’s a complete perfume of the past, present, and future.

As it’s nearly a week before Valentine’s Day, here are a list of facts for you:

• The average spend in the UK of Valentine’s Day Products is £65. Most of that goes on Perfumes and Fragrances.
• Over 1 Billion Valentine’s Day cards are sent (and I still don’t get one!). Surprisingly, Teachers receive the most, followed by children.
• Lace, a fabric associated with valentines day, is so named after Love And Romance.
• The heart is associated to Valentine’s Day as it is considered the source of all human emotions. The custom of drawing a heart shape is supposed to have come from early attempts to draw an organ that no one had seen. The symbol came on to become as a sign of love.
• In the Middle Ages young men and women drew the names from a bowl to see who would be their Valentine. They would wear this name pinned on their sleeves for one week. This was done so that it becomes easy for other people to know your true feelings. This was known as “to wear your heart on your sleeve”.
• In America, the pilgrims used to sent confections, such as sugar wafers, marzipan, sweetmeats and sugar plums, to their affianced. Lot of value was placed on these gifts because they included what was then a rare product, sugar. After the late 1800’s, beet sugar became widely used and more available, and sweet gifts continued to be cherished and enjoyed.
