Thank U, Next

Thank U, Next is a gourmand fragrance centered around sweet coconut, macaroon, and fruity notes, offering a youthful and playful scent profile. The opening features a sharp, synthetic note that some describe as dill pickles or vinegar, though it's brief and fades within minutes for most wearers. Once this initial phase passes, the scent settles into a soft, creamy coconut and rose gourmand with a sugary vanilla base. While the message of the perfume is strongly associated with summer and daytime wear, those who appreciate sweet, innocent scents may find it deeply comforting and flirtatious. On the skin, the fragrance is generally well-received for its clean, airy, and sweet character, transitioning into a warm musky drydown that many find appealing. Longevity is moderate, with some noting it lasts through the day, while others find it fades quickly. Sillage is moderate to strong, especially when first applied, but can become intimate over time. Despite some strong negative reactions tied to the initial burst of sharpness, many users report that the fragrance improves over time with wear and becomes a favorite, particularly for those who enjoy floral-sweet gourmands similar to Ariana Grande’s Cloud, but with a more tropical, coconut-forward twist.
