Juliette Has a Gun Not a Perfume is unlike anything I have ever worn. The first time I tried it, I was surprised by how clean and minimal it felt. It does not come across as a typical fragrance with layers of notes fighting for attention. Instead, it feels like an extension of your own skin, soft and subtle yet incredibly captivating. On me, it wears like a second skin with this fresh almost musky Matte B · influenster.com

This is such an addictive creamy scent! Definitely my favourite of all the Glossier You options. Normally I buy travel size fragrances first after testing in-store, but with this one I knew instantly it was full bottle-worthy, and I’m so glad I went for the full bottle. It’s salty, creamy with a touch of sweetness, comforting, unique, and I love the rice note. I can imagine myself wearing this all nicolejbb · sephora.com
