Okay, so I’ve been wanting to try out Clinique Happy for a while now. I finally got my hands on a bottle, and let me tell you, the experience was something else! Here’s how it went down:

First Impressions
I unboxed the perfume, and the first thing that hit me was the packaging. It’s simple, clean, and just looks… happy! Then I took that first whiff. Boom! It was like a burst of sunshine. I immediately smelled the orange and grapefruit. It’s super citrusy and fresh, which I love. It’s not too strong, but definitely noticeable.
Trying It On
I sprayed a bit on my wrist to see how it would react with my skin. Initially, the citrus was really strong, but it started to settle down after a few minutes. I also noticed some floral notes coming through. I think it’s the Hawaiian wedding flower and mimosa that they talk about on the website. It’s a nice balance, not too overpowering.
Throughout the Day
I wore it out for a day to see how it lasts. Here’s the thing, I get really bad dry skin, so usually perfume doesn’t last long on me. To combat that, I moisturized my skin first. I used a regular, unscented lotion and applied it to my pulse points like my wrists and neck. After that, I sprayed the Clinique Happy over those areas. Let me tell you, it worked like a charm! I could still smell it on me hours later, which is rare. It evolved throughout the day. The citrus faded a bit, and the floral notes became more prominent. It was like having two different perfumes in one. It was not just a scent; it felt like a mood booster. Every time I caught a whiff of it, I couldn’t help but smile. It just has this uplifting vibe, you know?
Final Thoughts
- Scent Profile: It’s a great mix of citrus and floral. Perfect for daytime wear, especially in the spring or summer.
- Longevity: Using a moisturizer really helped the scent last longer on my skin.
- Overall Vibe: It totally lives up to its name. It’s a happy, uplifting fragrance that’s sure to put you in a good mood.
So yeah, that was my experience with Clinique Happy. I had a lot of fun with it. I’d definitely recommend giving it a try if you’re into fresh, citrusy scents. It’s a classic for a reason!
