Sweet Smelling Perfumes That Smell like Candy

Last Updated by: Perfumeaddict, on: Friday, 18 March 2022

Want to feel like a kid in a candy shop? Check out these gorgeous sweet-smelling perfumes. We know you'll love them.

As a child, being set loose in a candy shop was pure heaven. The vibrant colors, the wonderful flavors, the sugar high — yes, candy was the most covetable item in our young lives, and we would do anything to get it.

Candy was present at the most fun times of our childhood, like Halloween, Christmas, and trips to the fair. It was also there to pick us up when we were down — a lollipop made the nasty feeling of a shot go away at the doctor’s office. It was what loved ones gave to us in good times and in bad, little pieces of edible love

Unfortunately, as we grew older, the body’s acceptance of this wonderful substance became less than forgiving. Candy began making a permanent home for itself in the fat stores of our bodies and in our teeth, getting ourselves in trouble with health professionals and our egos. The most unfortunate of individuals have even developed the inability to process candy and have been placed under strict orders to eliminate it from their lives. Slowly but surely, the magic that candy created for us faded away due to its incompatibility with our adult lives.

However, there is a way for us to enjoy candy as adults without suffering the negative consequences. Thanks to a number of perfume manufacturers, we can enjoy candy not by tasting it but by smelling it. Here are a few delicious perfumes that are good enough to eat — warning: they are not edible, so sniff, don’t taste!

The Best Sweet Fragrances for Women

While perfumes are typically made to bring fragrance to your body, you can’t deny the fact that you are using them for more personal reasons.

Now, you might be wondering if there’s a scent that could highlight your sweet and friendly personality whenever you’re in a crowd. Wonder no more as there were sweet-scented fragrant perfumes that could suit your delicate taste.

With vast options available in the market, selecting will surely be tedious for a luscious and candy scent lady like you. But fret not, as I have listed the 10 best sweet fragrances for women, making it easier for you to select.

Ari by Ariana Grande

With its generous sweetness in a bottle, perfection could be an understatement for Ari by Ariana Grande. Made by the famous Pop Singer in 2015, every spray of this perfume could give you a luscious and sexy feel. Compared to other celebrity-developed scents in the market, Ari by Ariana Grande differs for its notable propensity to last all day long. Its sweet and fruity fragrance was made possible by raspberry, pear, and grapefruit as the top notes. While the floral scent came from middle notes of Vanilla orchid, rose, and Lily-of-the-Valley. The base notes of marshmallow, musk, and woody notes bring a unique and delicate fragrance to the famous perfume.

The Aquolina Perfume Line

One of the sweetest scents available on the market is the Aquolina perfume line. An Italian company, Aquolina Pink Sugar, satisfies your sweet tooth with its caramel, vanilla, and cotton candy notes.

We might know Prada to be a sophisticated, high-end brand, but they have a playful side to them, too.

You can’t surely resist its light, fresh and summery aroma made possible by pineapple, raspberry, peach, and orange top notes. Middle notes of blackberry, freesia, and musk added a different fruity scent that could go all day long. And finally, base notes of dark chocolate, vanilla, coconut, and amber made the perfume rich in sweetness, making the scent juicier compared to other scents.
