The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2022 by Zara, Candy Festival is a Floral Fruity Gourmand fragrance for women that captures the essence of a vibrant confectionery carnival. The composition opens with a burst of melon and black currant, leading into the sunny brightness of lemon and pineapple. This fruity exuberance transitions smoothly into a powdery and woody base, anchored by cedar, musk, and amber, creating a sweet and comforting finish that lingers on the skin.

How to wear it

Apply Candy Festival lightly to pulse points — the fruity top notes are bright but fleeting, while the powdery base maintains its warmth throughout the day. This fragrance reads best close to skin rather than projecting into a room, so aim for intimate encounters over wide-open spaces.
