    I bought this because I’m an Ariana fan and the reviews said it was different from the original, but it disappointed me; I imagined it to be fruitier, though it has the Cloud DNA, for me it’s almost identical except for a faint fruity note at the start. I would have loved to smell more pineapple and pitaya (which is why I looked for it), but the fruit disappears as it dries, leaving classic Cloud. Plus, it doesn’t last long, max 4 hours, which is lamentable. If you already have the original, you don’t need this, but if you have nothing and are looking for something fruity, you’ll like this more.

    I love it, it’s my second bottle; pitaya is my favourite note. It doesn’t last more than 3 hours on my skin, but I don’t mind, I always reapply.

  3. Wow, I was surprised; at first it smells like Cloud, but as it dries it’s delicious. It’s red cotton candy with pitaya, it smells tropical and was the one that lasted the longest of the Ari ones, between 4 and 6 hours with moderate sillage. One of the best from Ari!

    Oh my goodness, I loved it, I have so much affection for it. It’s feminine and sweet, a sweet fruit note not too gourmand at the start due to the pineapple and the freshness of the pitaya which in the second phase blends with coconut water. As it dries it smells sweet, slightly gourmand, clean and not cloying. It projects just enough to not be invasive, it feels subtle. So delicious!

  5. It’s a delicious, sweet and feminine perfume. To me it smells like vanilla ice cream; although they say Mood Vanilla is, here the vanilla, coconut and sweet fruits feel soft, not like a tropical ensemble, just sweet. It has the Cloud DNA but brighter and less unisex, very feminine. It highlights what people like about Cloud and leaves aside what they don’t, ending up delicious. It’s not annoying. The longevity and sillage are moderate like all Ari perfumes, but for the price it doesn’t hurt to reapply. The pastel pink colour definitely must smell like this.

  6. I’ve worn it several times and don’t feel it well, only the fruit, never the praline. It’s too weak and doesn’t last a moment, it’s fleeting.

  7. Unfortunately it doesn’t work well on my skin. At first I feel tropical and fresh vibes, then it becomes something strange that borders on unpleasant with a slightly salty sweet caramel.

    The dry down of this Cloud Pink with Amber Fever by Mancera is almost identical, without that woody whisky note of this one. Amber predominates with that warm and enveloping sweetness. It lasts about 8 hours but with little projection.

    A super delicious scent, sweet but not cloying with fruity notes. It’s one of the perfumes in my collection that flatters me the most.

    I want to clarify that I don’t like the original Cloud, but the pink bottle caught my attention and I tried it in a store and liked it. It’s not its antithesis, but it’s distinguishable (though it has the Cloud DNA). Before I got a dupe and liked it more; I didn’t feel all the notes but in the end it smelled like chocolate cookies, which I loved, and months later I bought the real one. It is similar to the dupe, but not identical. Here I smell more that ‘colony’ scent that reminds of the lavender in the original Cloud, but in a sweeter and fresher version. The pineapple and coconut stand out, and although it’s sweet, it doesn’t cloy, it feels fresh for going to the beach or the park. It’s feminine, strong and long-lasting, but not very novel. I’m glad to have it, although the cloud ornament isn’t very practical, I know it’s part of the charm.

  11. Lovely, smells like Yakult but not overpowering; the pineapple and dragonfruit give it a distinct touch. The longevity is typical for Ariana Grande, quite short, though this lasted a bit longer on me. I would buy it again.

  12. So sweet and exquisite! At first I thought I’d smelled it before; yes, it recalls Burberry Her EDP, but this is an improved version: a sweeter opening, aphrodisiac thanks to the dragonfruit and praline, and less floral than the original. The bottle is a dream, just like Ariana’s.

    I’m not a huge fan of sweet or dessert-style perfumes, but this one is unique, smelling of marshmallow. The original Cloud seemed simple and faded quickly, whereas this version is a much better option.

  14. It’s the only celebrity perfume I truly love. I didn’t like the original or the 2.0, but this is delicious, lasts over six hours on me, and people always ask about it.

  15. I liked it more than the original Cloud; this one lingers on my skin and it’s noticeable. It has what the other lacked: it’s sweet but dries down to a musky scent. I use it in winter because I can tolerate the sweetness this way; the original tired my nose out, but not this one. The opening is sweet and fruity, like clean shampoo or bubblegum, but then leaves that musk right up against the skin.

    I’ve been wearing it for months and it’s a delight, especially its dry-down which smells like cotton candy. The downside is that it doesn’t last; I stop noticing the scent after four hours.

  17. I had to gift it because I didn’t like it at all. I gave it a chance but simply couldn’t handle it. On my skin it leaves an unpleasant scent, sweet yet bitter at the same time.

  18. The scent fascinated me, although I’m not sure if I’m the only one who suddenly detects goat notes in it. It’s wonderful, very youthful and feminine, though quite sweet. I wish it lasted longer, as it fades quickly on my skin.

    Another Ariana that leaves me with a ‘meh’. I gave in because they say it’s the same as Burberry Her, but there’s nothing alike. It’s so linear and synthetic; it doesn’t speak to me at all. Putting a kilo of sugar in a litre of water and wearing this would be the same thing.

  20. My review is below: this perfume is soft. Not at all, I’ve been wearing it for months and every time I put it on, someone asks what I’m wearing. Cloud Pink, it’s worth it: it’s sweet, fresh and fruity. It’s my favourite; the second is Cloud Intense and the first, no more, I don’t think I’ll get it again.

  21. It’s a blend between Cloud and Thank U Next. A very youthful, almost childish scent, with a moderate trail but it lasts. Sweet and musky, quite lovely. It’s to most people’s taste.

    I adore it; for me it’s Ariana’s best perfume and many people have complimented it and asked me to buy it for them. I’m not bothered that it’s not extremely potent, as my sense of smell is very sensitive and intense perfumes usually give me nausea. Compared to the original Cloud, I find this one more feminine and tropical; the other is more unisex.

    For me it’s the original Cloud with something extra that I can’t quite place, fruits or something synthetic that tries to be tropical, but fails to become a memorable perfume, at least for me… to put it simply it’s Cloud and therefore a dupe of BR, I tried it but couldn’t pull off the Pink version, no matter how pink it is…

  24. The opening is a bit strange, it smells fruity and acidic, but has little to do with its other sweet notes. I love the scent it leaves on clothes, a sweet softness, slightly powdery. The bottle is very pretty, and I agree with others: the Cloud version is better. I liked trying it, though I wouldn’t buy it again.

    Un unpopular opinion: amidst all that sweetness and strong notes, it leaves me with a cloying trail. The sweetness is far too potent and I can’t quite tell what it is; it feels artificial, with one note piling on another, as if it lacks personality. I’m sorry, but I just can’t wear it. It feels like a fragrance that’s entirely unnecessary, created solely because it sells. In contrast, I do like Ari or REM, but with more defined notes.

  26. I didn’t expect so much from such an affordable perfume. I bought it out of simple curiosity, blind as with 90% of my scents, drawn by the plastic bottle. I expected a scent that might not suit me anymore since I’m an older lady; I couldn’t have been more wrong—I loved it! I wore it at home while doing my chores, and I got bursts of a sweet yet non-cloying, fruity, tropical scent, like a delicious freshly made fruit drink with that subtle aroma of coconut water. That day I was dying of heat, yet it didn’t overwhelm me at all (I am prone to getting overheated), nor did it make me feel unwell. As soon as it runs out, I’ll be replacing it. I see it as very universal, suitable from a young girl to someone older; if you like sweet, soft, tropical scents that don’t become overpowering, it’s for you.

  27. I loved this perfume; it lacks that sweaty Cloud smell that I detect when I wear the original. Honestly, for my tastes, it’s the best CLOUD. I adore its fruity, powdery opening, followed by a whipped cream note that isn’t listed but is definitely there—creamy and powdery. Then comes the praline scent, something like hot chocolate. It lasts 6-7 hours on skin and days on clothes; its trail is moderate, though it projects strongly during the first hour. If you want a fruity, creamy perfume, this is the one from Ariana for you.

    Edit: I eventually sold my backup bottle, as the arrival of cold weather made me realise this fragrance just wasn’t for me; it’s too summery. Something in its composition started to smell like sugary sweat and eventually became a nuisance. I love it! It’s a sweeter, fruitier, slightly tropical version of the original Cloud. Unlike that, Cloud Pink lasts much longer on the skin, with good projection; about 5 or 6 hours after application, you can still detect it. Then the trail begins to fade but doesn’t disappear completely. It is then that you can appreciate its similarity to the original Cloud, without losing its sugary touch. Honestly, I recommend it highly. I bought the 30ml version to try, and I already have a 100ml bottle ready for when I finish this one.
