The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2016, Sweet Like Candy by Ariana Grande is a Floral Fruity Gourmand fragrance that remains a fan favorite among her perfume line. The composition opens with the sweetness of blackberry and pear, seamlessly transitioning into a heart of whipped cream and marshmallow. This candy-sweet profile is anchored by vanilla and cashmere wood, creating an indulgent scent that feels both playful and comforting. While it's praised for its compliment-getting aroma, Sweet Like Candy has also been criticized for its short longevity, lasting only a couple of hours on the skin.
Given its short longevity, apply Sweet Like Candy multiple times throughout the day to maintain its candy-sweet presence. It's best suited for close encounters rather than filling a room, so aim for pulse points where warmth can help it bloom.
