Moschino Toy 2 Bubblegum Perfume Review
Searching for the perfect tropical bubbly perfume to top off any look? Then Moschino Toy 2 may just be for you.
Moschino Toy 2 Bubblegum
The bottle
What a beautiful playful perfume bottle design this really is. The use of hot pink with a teddy bear-shaped bottle top with hands and feet attached even on the actual bottle itself! You canโt really top that can you in making an insanely cool perfume bottle? This perfume was launched in 2021 and it's still holding well in the market, Moschino once again impresses that their style is always in date. The use of frosted glass to create the bear's arms and feet was a very smart idea, along with only making the bottle cap and Moschino writing hot pink. This clashes really well with the overall style of this bottle making it a jolly, fun-loving perfume bottle to have.
Packaging
This beautifully crafted bottle comes in a bright hot pink flamingo box. Once again Moschino is using bold colours that stand out. On the outer box, there is the classic Moschino writing all in a futuristic silver, making this eye-catching writing protrude out from the box itself with an embossed effect. A clever yet simple way that they have designed even the packaging for this perfume.
The scent
This perfume smell itself is sweet and citrus, a delicate scent of the ironic and iconic bubble gum. I always love it when a designer brand makes a perfume that is suitable for vegans! Toy 2 bubblegum is the pink Kawaii version of the Toy 2 scent that Moschino already has on the market (released in 2019, many years prior to the bubblegum version). Personally, both are exceptional, I would however choose the bubblegum over the original Toy 2, but that's just my personal opinion. Why not pop down to your nearest Boots or Perfume Shop to check out which one you like better?
Ingredients
To make this upbeat summer-like scent Moschino used so many different great ingredients that are super friendly and 100% biodegradable! Crafting such a lavish scent they used:
- Candied Fruits
- Bitter Orange
- Lemon
- Bubble Gum
- Bulgarian Rose
- Blueberry
- Peach
- Cinnamon
- Ginger
- Peach Blossom
- Ambroxan
- Musk
- Cedar
I do always state in any of my articles that you should always, always make sure that you are not allergic to any ingredients used in a perfume. Do not take that risk, no matter how great it smells! So be sure to check, and if you are not sure then please ask the company or an assistant from the shop you are buying the perfume from.
Price
Expensive brands make exceptional lavish perfumes and we all know that Moschino as a fashion brand is far from on the cheap side of things. However, depending on where or what shop you are buying this scent from, it may just be affordable for you! So to bag one of these 30ml bottles it will cost you ยฃ42.00, for the 50ml you are looking at around ยฃ61.50, and for the 100ml bottle size it will come in at around ยฃ80.00. So not as expensive as you may think, unlike their fashion items which are mega pricy. I always say that you don't just pay for the perfume, you pay for the brand's name on it too.
Moschino background

After collaborating with the Italian fashion house Versace as an illustrator, the Istituto Marangoni graduate started his own namesake brand. Italian luxury fashion house founded in 1983 by Franco Moschino in Milan known for over-the-top, campy designs. The company specializes in ready-to-wear, handbags, and fashion accessories.

Why Choose Moschino
So you may be thinking why should I just choose this particular brand? Well, let me make some points for you to help in making that decision. Just look at how many celebs are walking around in Moschino - legendary figures such as Katy Perry, Madonna, and Bella Hadid! They have always been such a popular brand among celebs. Moschino is also known for its bold, outlandish colours and designs, so you will always be in focus wearing any fashion pieces from them. You will stand out for sure, making everyone's heads turn and be complimented each time you are rocking something from Moschino.
Final Thoughts
To sum up, the whole vibe of this perfume, from scent to bottle design to the brand itself is just incredibly unique and so cute! I 100% would recommend this Toy 2 Bubblegum perfume even over the original Toy 2 as well! As a female fashion and lifestyle influencer, it is the perfect addition to the pink aesthetic look I have, so this particular perfume bottle matches well with my own pink perfume collection. I will say that the bottle online does not actually show how pink this perfume bottle actually is, so pop into a local store to see the exact colour and I bet you'll be impressed.
