What does Sweet Like Candy Limited Edition smell like?

Longevity and sillage are both rated moderate, though the number of votes is small, so this is only a rough guide. Those who rated it scored it high. There are no season or occasion votes to draw on.

It opens fresh and fruity with bergamot, red berries and pear. In the heart, jasmine sambac, frangipani and honeysuckle add a soft floral layer. The base of marshmallow, blackcurrant liqueur, cashmere wood, musk and amber leaves a creamy, sugary trail. Ariana Grande Sweet like Candy (Eau de Parfum) and Jean Paul Gaultier La Belle have a close profile.
