Sweet Like Candy
Sweet Like Candy by Ariana Grande is a feminine-leaning eau de parfum from 2016 in the budget price tier. It opens with blackberry and bergamot, moves into jasmine and honeysuckle and dries down to marshmallow, vanilla and cashmere wood. Expect around 6 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Blackberry Dark, jammy and wine-like. Deeper than most berries.
- Bergamot Sharp citrus with a faint bitter edge. The opening of about half of all men's fragrances.
Heart
- Jasmine Heady, sweet and slightly animal underneath. Rarely subtle.
- Honeysuckle Sweet, nectar-like and slightly green. Summer hedgerow.
Dry-down
- Marshmallow Soft, sugary and pillowy. Pure comfort.
- Vanilla Sweet, creamy and warm. The most comforting note in perfumery.
- Cashmere Wood Soft, fuzzy, slightly musky wood. Adds a blurred warmth.
