Juliette Has a Gun Mmmm...
Floral gourmand, a murmur of delight
The name is the sound you make when something tastes good, and the brand builds a floral gourmand around it. The pyramid is short: neroli essence, orange blossom absolute and patchouli essence. The brand calls the result a zero-calorie treat. This is the Eau de Parfum, in a bottle of 100 ml.

How it unfolds
-
A bright, floral start
Neroli essence opens it: a fresh, slightly bitter flower of the orange tree, clear and bright rather than sweet. It sets the tone as floral first. The gourmand side comes later, though the brand's own wording, a treat, already hints at it.
-
Then orange blossom takes over
The heart is orange blossom absolute, the same tree as the neroli but fuller, honeyed and warmer. Here the flower becomes the gourmand the brand promises: the sweetness comes from the blossom itself, soft and rounded rather than sugary.
-
Patchouli underneath
Patchouli essence closes the pyramid with an earthy, slightly woody depth. It anchors the two orange flowers above and keeps the sweetness from drifting away. The brand lists the family as floral gourmand and adds woody in its tagline.
Wearing it
When, who and why
How to wear it
A scent with this much sweetness and volume does best with restraint: two sprays are enough for most days. It suits evenings, dinners and cooler weather, when a warm floral gourmand is welcome. On a warm afternoon a single spray works better.
Who it is for
Anyone who loves orange blossom and does not mind a sweet side. It suits people who want a perfume to feel like a treat rather than a statement of cleanliness, and moments when a little indulgence is the point: an evening out, a rainy afternoon.
Why choose Juliette Has a Gun Mmmm...
A pyramid of only three named notes, two orange flowers and an earthy base, leaves little room for confusion: you know what to expect. The brand pairs that clarity with a playful name and the idea of a treat without calories. A floral that is happy to be called gourmand.

It is sweet in a floral way. Two sprays work for most days; more suits evenings, since the brand rates its volume as high.

The store’s selection is really good and comprehensive. Placing an order was very easy, and shipping was really fast. The fragrances were well packed and they were all excellent. I’m very satisfied. 👍💯👍
Very good quality profume, it last long and it has a good price for its incredible aroma and mixes of fruit and wood smell
A cozy, slightly sensual vanilla that feels like warm night air by the sea. Easy to love if you enjoy gourmand perfumes with a soft smoky edge.
This perfume is really well blended, I just removed a star because I personnaly don't like the top note (citronella)
Placing the order was very easy. Shipping was very fast. I am completely satisfied.
Good cologne, love the citrus and ginger scent making it a playful combo while the tea base makes it a bit more mature. Great for the gym
FragranceGems is again really quick with their releases. I hope this one smells better than Too Damn Good. Already rating a 5 star because of previous experiences!!
Already pre-order. As always, FragranceGems is the first with good releases. Looking forward to my bottle!
The cap of the bottle came with a small part of it broken off and the glass pieces were in the box
