HAPPY?! ~Of Course! says CLINIQUE ~Review

I just realised that I have a very duck-ey smile. Not that it's related to the post, I'm just saying. [Note to self: Come up with better opening lines].

Clinique says: Our best-selling women's fragrance. A hint of citrus. A wealth of flowers. A mix of emotions.

Price: Somewhere around Rs4000 for 100ml

You know reviewing perfumes is a major task. You might like it, you might not. It really doesn't matter if I love it. So I want to make it very clear that you go out and try it before deciding if you like it or love it! :) Or hate it!

The Fragrance: When I spritz some of this on, the first thing that hits me is the citrus-ey sweet smell. Then it is slightly floral. But then after that, I don't know.


What I can tell you confidently is that I love this fragrance. I'm not someone who has a signature scent. You know, I cant be tied down like that. Go ahead, call me Chandler, call me a commitment phobe. But I feel I stick to a certain kind of fragrances. Most of my loved fragrances have the words blue, green ,citrus or aqua attached to them. No, I don't like Davidoff cool water. :| It smells too oily to me. RIGHT NOW.
You get the drift, right?

This, to me is an everyday scent. My mum had it. But who finished it? Yours truly. Yes!!!:D
So that makes this my second big bottle. I had a tiny one long back.
It's a very bright, clean, fuss free, happy fragrance. Now some people don't like this much. But I quite like it. I don't like those sickly sweet, cough syrup-ey smells.
Before this my Elizabeth Arden Green Tea used to be my everyday perfume till I realised it was a little.. err.. how do I put it?! Unlucky. :| For me. Yes, I'm superstitious like that, Alright.

It is definitely a day time perfume for me. But its easily wearable at night as well. Its such a clean fragrance. Very light and extremely fresh! A little goes a long way cause even though it is lite and fresh, It is very concentrated.
I used to carry the smaller bottle I had in my swim bag. And fragrances do get me super nostalgic. So this is something I'll always love.
It reminds me of that one crush, swimming competitions, holding hands and stealing a kiss. When my hair was ruffled, play with puppies, making a big deal  of going to the movies. No, I wont get over how awesome my teenage years were! You shouldn't either! & This was a part of it.


I once went to get the Clinique Happy for men for my brother. That was a very nice fragrance as well. Dint get it. I decided I could wear it. It dint have that typical 'masculine' smell in it. Was nice. Think I'll get that for me too!
I feel this would suit just about anybody! What's with the mature fragrance madness anyway?!


Lasts the whole day on me. This, despite the fact that I have really dry skin and perfumes don't really last much on me! This is an EDP. So good like that.

I'm just going to end this saying it's aptly named. Very bright. Very Happy. Check it out if you haven't already!


PS: I wish I could just give you all a whiff of it! It'd be so much easier.
