The story behind the bottle.
Vanilla Candy Rock Sugar | 42 by Kayali Fragrances is a Floral Fruity Gourmand fragrance for women, launched in 2024 and created by perfumers Gabriela Chelariu and Fabrice Pellegrin. The composition opens with sweet pear and marshmallow, blending into the richness of vanilla and caramel. These notes are complemented by ylang-ylang, jasmine, and bubble gum, creating a playful yet sophisticated aroma. As it settles, the fragrance transitions to a warm woody base with labdanum, tonka, sandalwood, and vetiver, adding depth and longevity.
Apply two to three sprays for optimal longevity. The initial burst of fruity sweetness fades within an hour, so layer it over a moisturizer for maximum impact. It reads best close to skin rather than across a room, making it perfect for intimate settings.
