What’s the secret formula for happiness in a perfume? Citrus notes of course, with other fruits on the side. The basket is full, pick what you want: mandarins, apples, lemons, and… plastic.
Think of a smoothie of fresh citrus fruits wrapped in cling-film and you’ll have Perfume Clinique Happy. But I don’t mean it bad. True, my first encounter with plastic in a perfume was disappointing (read: Gucci Rush), also, this synthetic layer in a perfume will always feel like you’re wearing a thin layer of rubber even if you were naked, but in the case of this perfume it makes sense.
This Happy fragrance then shifts from fruity to mainly floral with a fresh and delicate bouquet, which mixes with the rest of the fruits, especially orange. Plastic is still there and sticks to florals now, with also – thank goodness – a certain amount of creaminess bringing some normality to the mix.
The finale is slightly sweeter and warmer, although overall very soft in intensity. Happiness can be short-lived, but if you have the chance to re-apply it, then bring some of it in the purse and go ahead.
Sorry Gela Nash-Taylor, but this Happy Clinique Perfume is the one that Barbie could wear, not your Juicy Couture.
If this perfume was color it would be this (place a piece of cling-film on the screen though):
Happy Perfume By Clinique
Clinique Happy For Women

Hi Martina,

I assume in the Philippines it woke like everywhere else: you can carry liquids on the aircraft with you up to 100ml. For larger quantities, you will have ti check-in the luggage.
