Sweet Like Candy

Sweet Like Candy is a light, bright, and gourmand fragrance with a delicate balance of juicy berries, sweet cream, and marshmallow notes. It opens with a sharp, citrussy burst of bergamot and pear, quickly giving way to a rich, creamy, and slightly tart middle of blackberry, blackcurrant, and floral elements. The dry down reveals a soft, vanilla-cashmere wood base, lending a warm, slightly woody softness. Despite its sweet profile, the fragrance avoids being cloying, thanks to a subtle sour edge that keeps the sweetness in check. The scent is best described as youthful, playful, and comforting—like a soft marshmallow cloud with a hint of tart berry syrup. However, it is notably linear and lacks depth, with few accords standing out individually. It performs best as a daytime, casual scent, ideal for spring or early summer, and is particularly suited to those who enjoy simple, sweet, airy gourmands without excessive complexity. While universally praised for its cute, youthful vibe and pleasant, vanilla-creamy base, it is consistently criticized for its fleeting longevity and faint sillage. Some users report it dissipates within an hour, leaving only a faint skin scent. Others experience a synthetic, almost artificial sweetness that can become overwhelming. In the end, this scent is more about mood and memory than longevity—its joy is in the moment, not in lasting for days.
