Juliette Has a Gun

<p data-block-key="9gcq0">Miami shake by Juliette has a gun is a gourmand fruity scent of Wild Strawberries, voluptuous creamy notes and enticing Vanilla.</p>

<p>This scent has a nice lingering and heated scent. I say that because I was able to still smell this scent all throughout the day and it was still as strong as when I first spayed it. The scent gives off this Heated vibe that does give you the thought of Spring/Summer time in Miami. I like that it is lingering and heated so when it is applied to your pulsing areas you can really smell this scent lingering all throughout the day. I think this would be good for during the day as well as a nice date night. I have always been a fan of JHAG and this one impresses me as well. Yes, I would recommend this scent to anyone who likes a lingering, sweet heat scent. JHAG has impressed me once again, with the Miami Shake scent for the Spring/Summer season.</p>

I am a big perfume lover and have been building quite a collection over the past couple of years. I’ve learned that I gravitate most towards floral or gourmand scents, so I was very excited to hear that Juliette Has a Gun was releasing a gourmand perfume! However, Miami Shake has left me fairly disappointed and wondering how it was named as a gourmand! At first spritz, I could tell that the notes were not matching what was advertised. Miami Shake boasted notes of wild strawberry, ice cream cone, and whipped cream; leading one to expect a creamy, delectable milkshake scent! Rather, I found this to have a very artificial, fruit heavy scent. I could smell some strawberry right away, but it disappeared within a second and I was left with more of a mixed fruit, almost cough syrup-like smell. It has a slight smoky marshmallow scent to it as it dries down, but by the end of the day, all I could smell was coconut. Quite a wild ride of scent changes, but none were the soft, creamy strawberry milkshake vibes I had wanted. I suppose the strong fruity scent may fit the name Miami Shake, if you enjoy pre-mixed cocktails and sugary snowcones by the pool. Overall, I don’t think this is a gourmand, but may be appealing if you enjoy fruity or candy-like fragrances.

This perfume embodies strawberry gourmand in a delicious way, that unfortunately does not last very long. I have personally never tried wild strawberries before, however the opening note of wild strawberry is very juicy and sweet, I imagine that is exactly what they would smell like. The juiciness of the perfume goes down to a sweeter vanilla scent that compliments the strawberry scent extremely well. To me, this smells like strawberry candy rather than strawberry ice cream. Miami Shake a simple yet nostalgic and delicious perfume that is just in time for Spring and Summer. I just wish this perfume lasted longer and projected better. It sits close to the skin and hardly lasts an hour. I know body chemistry is different for each person and nose blindness can happen, but I asked around to see if anyone else could smell the perfume on me later and they could not. I get hardly 30 minutes to an hour of wear time out of this, both on clothes and directly on skin, hence why I would not give this the full 5 stars. I love gourmand perfumes and though I enjoyed this perfume, I don't think I'd purchase after running out simply because of the low wear time.
