Alex Cooper Wore This $29 Y2K Perfume on Her Wedding Day
Alex Cooper, it-girl, influencer, and host of the popular podcast Call Her Daddy, married her now-husband, Mathew, in Riviera Maya this past April. The wedding was a sight to behold—there was the picturesque beachside venue, Cooper’s lit-from-within makeup look, and some seriously stunning style moments (including a vintage Dior playsuit and a hand-embroidered Spring 2011 Donna Karan dress). To her faithful followers, affectionately nicknamed the “Daddy Gang,” it was as exceptional and aspirational as Sofia Richie-Grainge’s internet-viral wedding last year.
Cooper recently re-created her wedding beauty look for Vogue‘s Beauty Secrets series. In the video, she details every product she wore. While there are some noteworthy skincare and makeup items, we were struck by her choice of wedding-day perfume. Nostalgic and non-traditional, Cooper chose to wear a famous Y2K fragrance on her big day. Oh, and it’s only $29. Keep scrolling to see it.
Juicy Couture
Viva La Juicy Eau De Parfum Rollerball
Yep, Cooper’s wedding-day perfume was none other than Juicy Couture’s Viva La Juicy Eau de Parfum. While touching the rollerball to the sides of her neck, Cooper explains her reasoning for wearing such a Y2K-coded scent on her big day. “So, obviously, seventh-grade Alex on the way to the seventh-grade dance would put this on her body and she knew the boys were gonna come over…No boys came over,” she jokes. “I don’t use it every day, but when I’m feeling like I want to feel cozy and nostalgic, like, put me in.”
We’re sure many millennials have this scent burned into their brains, but if you weren’t on the Y2K-velour-tracksuit bandwagon, let’s get into it. Notes of creamy vanilla, caramel, and amber create a sweet, warming scent. Even though it might be an (initially) unexpected choice for a wedding perfume, we can see how it works.

The rollerball is perfect for using on-the-go. However, if you’re truly still dedicated to the iconic scent like we are, we suggest ditching the rollerball for the full bottle.
