  1. WOW, I fell in love at first sight! It’s a delicious explosion of caramelised apple with a shot of vanilla whipped cream, absolutely divine. The trail is wide and lasts 7–9 hours, what a find! 🍎🍭

  2. Creamy fruity. It’s a lactonised strawberry caramel, with milk or cream, like strawberry milk pops. That sweet, fruity milkshake flavour that’s always refreshing and tender. For noses that enjoy gummy sweets and milk-based caramels without being excessively sugary. Escada has a spring personality with fresh, fruity, sweet, luminous and cheerful formulas.

  3. It’s a fruity creaminess, like a lactonised strawberry (the British version here) caramel with milk or cream. Imagine those strawberry-and-milk lollies: that sweet, fruity milkshake that’s always refreshing and tender. Ideal for noses that love gummy and milk-caramel scents without being overly sugary. Escada has a spring-like vibe, with formulas sharing a common voice of freshness, fruitiness, and a bright, cheerful sweetness.

    It smells of caramelised apple with vanilla. 😻 You can also detect the whipped cream; it adds a lovely milky touch, making it very creamy, almost like ice cream. It’s sweet but not cloying, as there’s a note that gives it a perfect hint of acidity. It’s a flirtatious perfume; I’d wear it on a date or for everyday use, though not in summer.

    Smells like caramelised apple with vanilla 😻. The whipped cream is very noticeable, giving it a lovely milky plus; it’s super creamy, almost like ice cream. It’s sweet but not cloying, with a perfect acidic note. It’s flirtatious; I’d wear it on a date or for everyday use, though not in summer.

  6. I had been dying to try it before buying blind and I recommend it to all interested parties… I expected more given it’s a limited edition. It’s a very simple scent; the price is high for what it is, and it didn’t even last an hour since I tested it. The only good thing is the bottle, pure love but pure marketing.

  7. It smells nice, but it smells like a generic fragrance; nothing stands out. It’s a typical, flat scent; if someone gave it to you, you’d use it, but that’s about it.

  8. An insipid perfume that adds nothing. As soon as you apply it, it smells overly sweet, like cotton candy or strawberry syrup with flowers. Afterwards, it becomes more floral. It has almost no trail and doesn’t last long. I like to smell like a woman, not a child, and this is for rich children because, on top of that, it’s expensive. The bottle looks like one of Barbie’s accessories. The name nails it: Candy Love. Candy, surely. Love, not sure.

    In the end, I’ve become hooked. At first, I hated the bottle and the childish advertising, but then the 90s nostalgia won me over (I’m 31 and was a child back then). I went to try it and absolutely loved it. It smells of pink and white heart-shaped gummy sweets, like jelly. Once I wear it, I can’t stop smelling myself; it’s HYPER ADDICTIVE… If you like Escada’s limited summer editions, you’ll adore it. The only drawback is that it doesn’t last very long.

    In the end, it has conquered me. At first, I was horrified by the bottle and the childish advertising, then I saw it with nostalgia for my nineties (I’m turning 31, I was a child then). I went to the perfumerie and loved it. It arrived home yesterday and smells like those heart-shaped gummies, half pink and half white jelly. When I wear it, I can’t stop smelling myself; it’s hyper-addictive! If you like Escada’s limited summer editions, you’ll adore it. The only drawback is that the longevity is very scarce.

    Oh, damn, I’m buying it blind without thinking twice! And especially if it’s sweet… another one for my collection.

  13. It reminds me of Nina but sweeter and without the acidic touch. It’s a childish sweet fragrance, perfect for collecting as it’s a limited edition, but it’s not a perfume that will make history. It could be the perfect gift for a girl or teenager who admires sweet scents.

  15. I like it; it’s fresh, youthful and cheerful in the Escada style. You can taste the juicy apple, but I can’t detect the vanilla or the rose (fortunately, as I don’t like them). It reminds me of the half-red, half-orange heart-shaped sweets.
