  1. That playful guava at first… smells super sweet, youthful and fun. I don’t recall any other perfume like it. When it launched, I couldn’t afford to buy it and waited, but by the time I went to get it, it was gone. Hard to find this gem again.

    Beautiful and rare perfume: the opening is an explosive, delicious guava, followed by red fruits, pepper and cotton candy. It’s intense and interesting; I thought it would be another trifle but I was wrong, it’s divine and worth trying.

    What exquisite Candy Yum Yum!, a fresh fruity guava caramel with flowers, ideal for spring-summer, sweet and exquisite. Very feminine, the only one in the series that doesn’t smell unisex. For a cheerful and elegant woman. It feels super original, nothing I know compares… I can’t stop using it when it’s hot because I love it.

    They gave it to me for Christmas and… nothing like the hype. Super generic, nothing special. Total disappointment: I don’t smell the cotton candy, it doesn’t last, doesn’t project or anything. Super boring and very expensive for what it is. Many celebrity fragrances work far better. I returned it and wouldn’t recommend it.
