Pink Sugar Creamy Sunshine

Sweet, sugary, beachy, tropical, floral, exotic, creamy, bright, citrusy, feminine, flirty, playful, whimsical, delightful, intriguing, interesting, unique On me this opens sweet, bright, and creamy, with citrusy and bright orange, mandarin, and bergamot, and tropical and creamy coconut milk. As it starts drying down it gains a tropical floral facet with sweet and exotic Tiare flower and ylang ylang, sprinkled with sparkling sugar, and just a whisper of gardenia. Once it’s dried down the sensual vanilla, creamy caramel, exotic and tropical monoi oil, and woody sandalwood take over and envelope you in a dreamy sweetness. On my skin the orange, mandarin, coconut milk, sugar, Tiare flower, vanilla, caramel, and monoi oil are the most prominent notes. This is my newest addition to my Pink Sugar collection, which also includes Pink Sugar, Pink Sugar Berry Blast, Pink Sugar Sensual, and Gold Sugar (my personal favorite!). I definitely really like Creamy Sunshine, however it is my least favorite of the 5 I now own. It definitely fits in with the Pink Sugar line really well. I’d been super curious how this one would be, especially since I’m a huge fan of beachy/coconut scents as well as sweet/gourmand scents, and the Pink Sugar line. This is very sweet, but not quite as sweet as the others, and of course it has the beachy/coconut facet as well. I’m also a big fan of Tiare flower and monoi oil, both of which are prominent here as well. It kind of makes me think of a beach boardwalk, where the sugary sweet smells of cotton candy and other confectionery treats mingle with the beachy/tropical scent of coconut and exotic flowers. The top and middle of this fragrance are where you really notice the beachy/tropical side. Once it’s dried down it becomes quite similar to the OG. The top and middle notes fade mostly into the background and the sweet base notes replace them, making it feel closer to the OG. Even though I personally do enjoy this one, I will admit that it’s definitely not for everyone. It certainly has a rather unique and interesting feel to it. If you’re like me, and enjoy both beachy/coconut/monoi oil scents, sweet/gourmands, and the sugary sweet Pink Sugar scents then you might really enjoy this one. It does have a somewhat youthful vibe, but I’m 37 and still enjoy it.

I'm a hardcore Aquolina fan. I love every Aquolina perfume I've tried and single one of them were blindbuys (I love the original Pink Sugar, Gold Sugar, Black Sugar, Chocolovers and Blue Sugar). I found all of them weird at first. but after a while I grew to like them more and more (I think they changed to better during the years for example the orange note in Gold Sugar which I didn't like, faded away completely. Black Sugar became sweeter) unfortunately Aquolina perfumes are not available in my country anymore so I wasn't able to try their new offerings. as soon as I saw Creamy Sunshine available on a local website I didn't hesitate to order it. my first impression was: this smells weird. it's very sweet but also has some fruity sourness. I could detect Pink Sugar's DNA in it but all in all they're different enough. It's as if lots of floral notes and some fruity/citrusy notes are added to Pink Sugar's sugary DNA. they're different enough Even though I couldn't figure out how I feel about it, I was happy with my blindbuy. today I tried it after a month and I guess I'm ready to say that I like it a lot. this perfume seems to have to layers on me. one layer is very sweet pink sugary sugar and caramel + orangey citruses(more like orange hard candies).quite juvenile and synthetic but also yummy and addictive. the other layer is a soft, slightly milky, slightly powdery vanilla floral (tiare, gardenia and ylang ylang). gorgeous and classy. I can randomly smell one of this layers. most of the time the first layer. but sometimes the second one. I wish the second layer was stronger and would blend with the first one instead of competing with it. I still like this perfume because I like both layers. I don't find creamy sunshine really creamy. I don't find it really coconuty (to my nose Gold Sugar is very creamy and coconuty) and I don't think it smells like sunscreen even a bit. it also doesn't remind me of LDBS by Kilian which is my 1st favorite fragrance of all times. on me this is a lovely, fun candied floral-fruity-vanilla. Just like other Aquolinas, it has very good longevity and sillage but it's not as strong as the OG or the other perfumes I have from this brand I can't wait to try other Pink Sugar flankers

This is the BEST 'Pink Sugar'! It's like a pleasant breeze on a bright, beautiful spring day! Don't be fooled by the packaging, this is a rather unique take on 'Pink Sugar' & a multi-layered perfume. Remove the super-synthetic raspberry / strawberry notes from the opening & the harsh burnt-caramel / liquorice in the dry-down from the original 'Pink Sugar'. Then add 20% sunny, soapy-clean facets such as ylang ylang, tiare & some masculine earthiness with oakmoss...Voilà! You get 'Creamy Sunshine'. The citrusy-fresh opening is similar to the classic (minus berries) but with a hint of coconut, then it immediately starts developing into that clean, sugary vanilla cotton candy on my skin. The yummy cotton-candy soap dry-down has a retro doll-head characteristic, same category as By Killian 'Love, Don't Be Shy'. I can smell the tropical florals (mostly tiare & ylang), but they are not screechy and add creaminess & complexity. What I love about this version is that there is a sharp, masculine earthiness in the dry-down on my skin. 'Creamy Sunshine' is the LEAST heavy synthetic-smelling out of the 3 Pink Sugars available and also the smoothest. I found the original 'Pink Sugar' to be too strong, aggressive & burnt on my skin, while 'Berry Blast' was overloaded with synthetic berry notes. But this one is the COMPLETE opposite! Quite luscious & lightweight :) My mom HATES the original 'Pink Sugar' (because of the burnt sugar note) but loved this at first sniff, so that should tell you something! If you dislike the original 'Pink Sugar' because of its harsh notes but still love the DNA: I 100% recommend 'Creamy Sunshine'! High quality with great performance, feminine with a chic edge, blended well & not to mention absolutely seductive!

As a huge Pink Sugar fan I was very excited to try this. When I first sprayed it, I was horrified. It smelled like a very confusing and nauseating mix of flowers. Plus, the monoi oil and tiare/coconut were giving me very strong tanning oil/bug spray vibes. Like Monoi Eau de Vahines, which I loved as a kid but can’t stand it now. I even sprayed them side by side and the similarity was huge. It was the strong monoi oil scent, overpowering all the other notes in Creamy Sunshine. Found it headache inducing. Couldn’t feel any orange, mandarin or bergamot at all. The dry down though (maaaaany hours later) was absolutely divine, so I decided not to give up on this fragrance just yet. Occasionally I would spray this on a wrist, but instantly regretted it. Then I forgot about the bottle for about a month or two. And the juice changed. I wasn’t sure if it was the perfume or my nose that changed so I tested it side by side with Vahines once again. It does change after you open it and let it “age” like a fine wine. The strong monoi oil and flower notes got way tamer, and the opening now has very sweet tropical flowers and a hint of orange/mandarin coming through. Once it settles, I smell very sweet vanilla sugar caramel with soft subtle tropical flowers. This was quite an emotional rollercoaster. It was hate at first sniff, but now it’s one of my most loved perfumes. If you like sweet gourmands and tropical scents but hated this at first, I suggest you try it again about a month or two later. Maybe it will surprise you.

This smells so yummy😋 To me it smells like creamy yellow Indian jasmine And coconut vanilla pudding The coconut is very subtle but the caramel, vanilla and white floral is what i mostly get from this i love it so much it’s my new favorite i just imagine myself wearing this with a white sundress at the beach It’s really sweet and strong the performance is amazing but tbh i wouldn’t wear this in closed areas in summer because it’s super strong it’d give me a headache with this weather especially because i live in the Middle East so it’s super hot and humid, but i’d have no problem wearing this outside or in a place with air conditioning. I would also wear this in cold seasons cause i think the sweetness and creaminess is very warm and comforting I really like layering this with wild Madagascar vanilla by bath and body works it makes it even more cozy and creamy 😋 At first when you spray this it’s very strong with the white florals but the more it dries down the creamier and sweeter it gets It’s a 9/10 for me💛

Creamy Sunshine, Powdery Marshmallow & Caramel... I curious to test this because I love lactonic scents. Yes, all the notes are there, but in the drydown it strongly reminds me of Love Don't Be Shy By Kilian + Pink Sugar Aquolina (OG). Sort of like Pink Sugar's version of LDBS if you will. Has really good performance. For me this works on it's own, or layered with other similar scents. So far this seems to be a great layering tool, and would probably layer well with many scents, but so far I've had a chance to try it with some Bath & Body Works lotions, and with some similar scents (below). Love it. Enjoy! Free as a Flower B&BW lotion (Libre YSL dupe) + Creamy Sunshine (retains Libre DNA but adds lactonic sweetness) Pink Obsessed B&BW lotion (Valentino Donna Born in Roma dupe) + Creamy Sunshine Pink Obsessed B&BW lotion (VDBiR dupe) + Creamy Sunshine + Love Don't Be Shy (amps LDBS DNA)

All I smell is orange, vanilla, sugar, and caramel. I don't think winter is the right season for this. At least not a Minnesota winter. I want to smell more green mandarin, Gardenia, bergamot, coconut milk, tiare, and monoi oil. I'll try again in other seasons. It's rather boring and dull right now. My nose could also be tired so maybe I should take a fragrance break then try again. I sprayed this on my headband and forgot I did that. So I wore the headband out and I kept smelling the sickening scent of original pink sugar and I was wondering why my gardenia was smelling so awful like pink sugar!? Well then I remembered it was the headband! It choked out my perfume and clouded my entire aura with pink sugar. Ugh! Gosh I hope it changes to be better in warmer weather!

Successful blind buy for me!!! The name of this scent is perfect: it is like happy sunshine in a bottle that is simultaneously creamy and comforting on the skin. The coconut milk, gardenia, and vanilla smooth out the citrus scent nicely. It complements my optimistic and upbeat personality well without being overly sweet or headache-inducing. Imagine a woman in her mid 20's-30's wearing a floral sundress drinking mimosas and laughing with her friends on a summer morning. She may be batting her eyelashes at the cute waiter as well! Office friendly, but may be too "fun" for certain professions (such as a lawyer or broker). Sillage and longevity are average, but great for the price. Definitely a daytime Spring/Summer scent.

Better than original in my humble opinion! This gives me a creamy gourmand pink sugar for summer without me sneezing at the beginning LOL! This is a TRUE flanker with TRUE DNA! You know this is Pink Sugar, but it isn't, but then it is, and then it isn't. I absolutely love this one - I spray this way way more than the standard! Think Pink Sugar DNA, this is absolutely Pink Sugar and you know it is, i don't know how to explain it, but you know that is what perfume DNA is all about baby! Think instead of burnt sugar, you get caramelized sugar with warm coconut milk with a very light backing of white floral for that true summer scent. Absolutely love this flanker - it is gorgeous!

Surprised by the hate on this one! I picked it up at Shopper's and used PC Optimum points to get it for like $12. It has the same dense, fluffy DNA of the original Pink Sugar, but in a warmer summer outfit. Add in some coconut, citrus, florals, and remove the licorice, and somehow Pink Sugar becomes a perfect summertime fragrance. It's creamy, sweet, and tropical. Absolute beast mode, projects and lingers like crazy, and I can smell it on my clothes for days after and even through the wash. If you didn't like OG Pink Sugar, I think this one is at least worth giving a shot. I'm a sucker for summery flankers.

I love this one. Not that much in common with the original. where pink sugar is a obvious gourmand creamy sunshine is the quintessential beach / suntan lotion scent. To me it bears a likeness to Jil Sander sun. Where JS sun has become too cloying after reformulation (the ambery accord of tonka bean and bezoin became too overbearing) , creamy sunshine has exactly those components i liked of the older formulation. If i would describe creamy sunshine: sweet ,tropical and coconutty. Not that complicated of complex but still very pleasant.

This is divine in this warm spring weather! It's 70 degrees and this is just so warm sweet and luxurious... It's like pink sugar the sugar aspect but everything else is a sister to Animale Love which is a more floral version of pink sugar. I am loving this now! 💓 When I find a perfume I love I hoard bottled and I'm about to stock up on this Only problem is when I hoard bottles, the fragrance seems to change and then I no longer I love it but I'm going to do it anyways! It is so heavenly!!

It took me a really long time to get me one because of the reviews. People saying that it doesn’t smell like PS at all (which I love) and that it was too flowery. Well... there’s is where we should always remember that every nose perceive fragrance differently, and that everyone’s ph affects the outcome. This for me is OBVIOUSLY a PS flanker, the DNA is very much there. Although more soft, more beach vibes, more tropical. But thank God the PS DNA is there because I love it 🥰🥰💕💕

The pink sugar dna is strong in this perfume, but creamy sunshine is lighter, creamier, and more floral, still sweet but less sweet than pink sugar. If pink sugar gives you a headache from all the caramel and licorice, give this a try. But keep in mind, it is still quite sweet so if you don't like that, do not go near any of the pink sugar perfumes. Personally I like this a bit more than the original, as I find the original to be cloying and suffocating.

The perfect tropical companion. This is a lush, creamy floral that avoids the 'sunscreen' cliché, focusing instead on a beautiful ylang-ylang note. I wore this while traveling through Bali, and it perfectly matched the humid, floral air of the islands. It’s a versatile scent for day or night and offers incredible quality for such an inexpensive price point. A staple for anyone who loves an affordable, vacation-ready fragrance.

My favorite Pink Sugar. When I first tested it on a paper strip, it smelled like the original Pink Sugar with coconut and a plasticky undertone. But – on skin, it’s a whole different story! A perfect, creamy, slightly caramel, slightly floral and coconutty scent. Much more sophisticated than the original. I love it! I thought it would be just summer scent, but IMO, it’s a perfectly wearable scent all year round.

If you want the lemon cake scent you need to get Gold Sugar. I like that but the lemon cake part turns me off. I don't smell any coconut in creamy sunshine. It seems you're either a pink sugar lover or a creamy sunshine lover and I am the latter. It just caramelizes with my chemistry in this warm weather and makes this cloud of sweet baked florals sunshine and sweets.

A real love at the first sniff ! I love the OG pink sugar but this one outpasses all my expectations as it's creamier and more interesting in terms of "complexity". It's sweet, yummy and thick summer fragrance. I do understand why it can be related to Love by Killian even if there are no similar in any means. But if you do like LDBS, you will for sure like this one !

It has the OG pink sugar base to it, without that nauseating burn note. This is a tropical floral gourmand scent to my nose, I can't stop sniffing my wrist. It's gorgeous! This will be in heavy rotation this summer. 😎☀️ Edit: Wow!! I've just deeply moistureized my skin with Jergen's Cherry Almond lotion and just sprayed this on. NOW Im getting wafts of LDBS!!!

Pleasure in a bottle. A vanilla-infused, delightful sweetness of lemon cake. It lingers beautifully on fabric, delivering a captivating, soothing, and comforting experience for a long time. The projection and longevity with this application are very good. The composition subtly reminds me of Lira.

this is the most delicious perfume i have. it smells like sunscreen and coconut and cake and pineapple. it feels like summer. very sweet, but not cheap smelling. youthful and bright and sweet. you can't be sad when wearing it. stays on hair and clothes too. i am just in love with it

I was hesitant about this one at first but it has since grown on me, and I now prefer it to the original Pink Sugar. It smells like a lemon meringue pie on me and I receive so many compliments on it! It’s fairly long lasting as well (6+ hours) and more mature than OG Pink Sugar

So far, Creamy Sunshine is my favorite of the Pink Sugar flankers. Creamy Sunshine is different. It's subtle, it's feminine, and floral. I love the gardenia note contained in the fragrance. It projects well and is long-lasting, a sure winner!

Mix this with Gold Sugar by the same company (Aquolina) you’re welcome. Also if you despise this don’t sleep on gold sugar by itself it’s what you wish this one was. If you have Fancy Love by JS you must layer Gold sugar with that too

I get about 7 hours with it on skin and 15 hours on clothes i get a coconut vanilla scent that in all honesty smells like a creamy pie you're getting a performing edt for the price of 20 small chocolate footballs 9.2/10

Oooh... By the reviews I see that I really, really want to try this one! More floral than gourmand!? Yeah! That's what I'm talking bout! All my notes but leans more floral, I gotta have this before winter ends 🥰

I love this so much! Even better than the original (but a bit less persistent). They're almost the same, but this smells creamier and gives summer vibes. The licorice is less intense here than in the original.

Goes well with lira xerjoff or devotion. This works in winter for me but I’ve noticed it kinda smells the same in every season just a little too cloying in summer. Og works well in the heat.

I was able to get this from Nordstrom Rack online for cheap! It smells so much like Love by Kilian to me! I adore it. Definitely my favorite Aquolina so far.

I am fan of the gourmand family and this one is so lovely! It really does capture its namesake, "creamy sunshine".

OK, this is nicer than I thought it would be. I'm also reviewing the hair mist. I personally don't like yellow florals, so I was a bit meh when I saw this had them. I did get a little bit of that *ping* of a headache when I first smelt it, that usually happens when yellow floral notes hit my skin, I did expect more coconut, and possibly more of the caramel to stand out, but it didn't have that element which I have to admit I was actually glad, but once the sugary/yellow floral notes die down a bit, it is nice, it smells exotic and feminine, and also a bit more of higher end perfume, the monoi starts to come out to play as well as the tiare. I wanted to replace my Kayali hair mist which only comes in DejaVu but I do think this is nice, for the price too. I prefer it to Pink Sugar, which does come off a bit too juvenile, this is more tolerable as a 33 year old woman. If you enjoy yellow florals then this would be a good spray for you. If you're after more white florals then this might not work for you but it was cheap, so it's worth a try. I haven't smell LDBS but Creamy Sunshine is still lovely in complexity, balance and price. If you're after a coconut heavy fragrance this isn't it. This is very yellow/white floral dominant with an underlying sugar/sweetness, I personally don't enjoy coconut heavy things so this was a win for me.

To me this is the most interesting Pink Sugar flanker since the discontinued masterpiece that was Black Sugar. The original Pink Sugar DNA is definitely easily recognizable in this, but no one would confuse the two for each other. Creamy Sunshine might sound clumsy as a name, but in the end it describes the scent well. This smells like heady, beachy, creamy tropical flowers on a backdrop of cotton candy and caramel. Like Pink Sugar, it has a slightly burnt note, as if the cotton candy was in the machine for a moment too long. I don't get as much coconut in this as some others do, to my nose this isn't a coconut gourmand, just a tropical scent that has some coconut blended in with the ylang ylang and tiare. What makes it stand out to my nose is the mimosa. I'm not that fond of this note, it often feels a little too sharp and clean to me, but that's just what this sweet floral gourmand bomb needs. All in all it's a very fun and happy scent, not sophisticated or natural in the least, but surprisingly multilayered. I agree with one reviewer who mentioned that there is something rubbery about this, which might not be everyone's cup of tea. I really don't get why 14 people voted for this is as similar to Love Don't Be Shy though. Don't get your hopes up for a cheap dupe, they're really not that close.

Okay so the first hour of this is egregious. It's like plastically synthetic sugar. Like chalky confetti sprinkles shoved up your nose. It has a powdery, almost astringent ozone taste that reminds me of PEZ candy or children's chewable acetaminophen. Really nasty stuff. No citrus at all. It really needed something. Maybe if I had sprayed it on myself when I was already overheated and a touch sweaty, the warmth and salt could help balance out that weird chalk-sugar smell. But it happened to be a cool day when I tested this, and I feel like the cold makes it 'shrink' and smell 'hard' and screechy. (i never really understood what people meant by screechy, until today!) If you had blind folded me, I would NEVER guess that this is related to Pink Sugar. HOWEVER The dry down is certainly worth it. It takes a while, but I did eventually get that creamy caramelly coconut, a backdrop of white and yellow florals, and the sandalwood to cozy it up. It almost reminds of a creamsicle cocktail with coconut rum. My mind is not made up. I have to try again once the weather is a little warmer. However, if I give myself an hour before interacting with anyone, this would make a nice everyday summer gourmand- it wasn't too expensive, and I don't feel like I have to "save it" for a special occasion.

Just received this today. Luckily, I live in The Netherlands and this was easily accessible. I used the original pink sugar years ago but found it to be a bit too sweet for my liking. Upon initial spray the original pink sugar DNA is detectable. I almost mistook this for pink sugar. A few moments in I notice that this is much more softer, smoother and creamier than pink sugar. If you love pink sugar you will definitely like this. Although both are EDT, think of this being the EDT to a parfum. Regardless, this lasts a whole day and has moderate sillage. I think this will be a good layering scent. Mix it up with other gourmands for a unique smell (I'm thinking viktor & rolf bonbon or Guerlain spiritueuse double vanille). If you have pink sugar I honestly don't think you need both. If you can get your hands on it and would love to have it definitely give it a shot! For a cheapie, aquolina is a beast! P.S. I think this fragrance can work all seasons depending on how much you spray. Hope this helps this users who cant access it ❤︎

Love this its not as good as the original pink sugar wich is a staple in my collection but it is still delicious. I would say dont buy this expecting it to be Pink sugar, think of it as the tropical version of Pink Sugar. For me the monoi oil is prominant wich i love during the summer i love to layer my body with the delicious scent of monoi oil tiare flower oil so this i feel is perfect for summer or a sunny day. The sugar is still a main note in this but the citris adds a little pop in the opening but in the dry down they all mould together creating a creamy sweet tropical scent. Im happy that i added this to my collection and its a great scent especially for the price. So i think if you buy it expecting it to only be gourmand you will be disappointed but if you buy it understanding it is a floral/tropical take on the pink sugar you will be happier if you were a blind buyer. I personally like it. Not as much as pink sugar and gold sugar but its still nice and on my skin easy to wear

A cotton candy with coconut. Thats how this perfume smell like. It has a lot of the Pink Sugar original but to this perfume comes with a note of coconut. If you dont like too much this note, probably this perfume wont be for you. You can use it at all seasons. It has a good projection and longevity (about 7-8 hours on clothes). If you are fan of the Pink Sugar original, i will suppose that you will like this flanker too. Its really sweet. Its like when you go to an Atraction Park and in the open air can you smell the cotton candy... just finish done. The cotton candy is still warm and has some drops of coconut water or coconut milk. The cottos candy smell almost like is burn... but not yet. Its just warm and ready to eat. Thats how i will describe this perfume. This perfume is perfect for a teenager. Its kind of childish or playfull if you will. Its an easy going, sweet, femenine, playfull, youthfull and tropical. Its just a FUN FUN perfume for a sweet girl.

Pink Sugar Creamy Sunshine is not what I was expecting at all. Given the notes of sugar, vanilla, coconut milk and caramel, I was expecting this to be a scent of warm cookies or possibly coconut cream pie. However, this is way less sweet than I would have thought. It is a more of a floral perfume than the notes suggest. On me, it opens with a bit of a bitterness that I was not expecting at all, likely from the mimosa, and I thought this scent would be a scrubber for sure. But once I let this sit and develop on my skin, it becomes much prettier and much better, in my opinion. I am getting noticeable ylang ylang for sure; I would say that is the prominent floral note. I am also getting some very subtle coconut, vanilla, and yes, caramel and sugar. The sweetness in this is soft and not overpowering. It has none of the burnt quality of the original Pink Sugar. I like it much better once the initial blast wears off. So far, this is a like for me.

Just got this and I'm so happy I did. I liked the berry blast but it was so similar to the original that I couldn't justify having it. This creamy sunshine is actually really good. I actually get lemon in the opening and it smells like a lemon cake. And as that lemon fades you're left with creamy and slightly tart vanilla with some Citrus underneath. It doesn't smell like sunscreen or tanning oil but it does have a hair oil scent. I think it might be my favorite pink sugar. Definitely worth a try and I'm excited to hold on to this for the summer. The only downfall is it's not as beast mode as the original but I personally think that just adds to the summer appeal. If it was stronger I do think it could make you nauseous. Yes it does have a floral edge to it but it's still a "pink sugar" flanker and I wouldn't classify it as a floral because it's mostly sweet.

Creamy, pleasant and longlasting. While more floral and citrusy than the original pink sugar, is still a very good Gourmand because the caramel, and vanilla notes are quite strong and long lasting. I think I prefer this one over the original. The coconut is in my opinion, not very noticeable. Overpowered by other notes and doesn't last, so it doesn't stand out. I wish it would stand out more, since it gives this fragrance some uniqueness that pink sugar perfumes don't really have. I love it, don't get me wrong. It's one of my favourite summer perfumes to wear. It's overall super longlasting, has good enough projection imo. I get just as many polarizing reactions as I get when I wear the original. Some people adore it, some other's hate it so much. I guess it's a thing that just happens with this line (?)

I am in shock. One year ago I tested this fragrance in the store, and it smelled like creamy vanilla and caramel, a bit lactonic. Today I bought this fragrance, a new bottle but the liquid inside is deep dark orange. To my surprise, it smells nothing like how I remembered it a year ago. It’s a strong white florals scent—the orange blossom note is very prominent, plus bitter orange and maybe other citrus. That’s all I got. I literally cannot smell anything else. No caramel, no vanilla. I can’t even smell the OG pink sugar DNA in here. I checked the batch code and it was produced 2 years ago. The scent is not unpleasant, I am just surprised at how different it smells. Hopefully I did not get a spoiled bottle. I will let it sit and see if it changes.

Oh wow, this is a big gutsy cheerful floral that i would never have even looked at if it weren't a Pink Sugar flanker - but i love it. Vanilla, sugar, a touch of orange juice and a lovely creaminess are the DNA this shares with its pillar, but the main body of this fragrance goes a very different direction. It's strong and gutsy and rich and cheery and ladylike, it makes me think of early Spring maybe, the sweetness and gourmand touches mean this one is definitely too much for summer, but it's definitely a floral and like nothing else i have. Easily the best Pink Sugar flanker i personally have tried, and as strong sweet and addictive as the original; but definitely also the most divergent from the pillar.

I got this a month ago, and i've been testing it quite a lot. My first impression was that it smelled like awful suncreen with some citrus and vague coconut water and lots of white floral(?) and i friggin hated it, I tested it everyday for a whole week and a half and it stayed awful. BUT! I let it sit for a good 2 weeks and o my god.. When I tell you it's good ITS GOOD. I'm sure the juice changed, and I did read one time you have to let pink sugar sit a bit for it to be delicious. And yes! This is so good, exactly what it says.. The amazing coconut, oranges creamy deliciousness. I smelled my OG pink sugar after using my berry blast and creamy sunshine and the OG is so meh now.

So, I just received this today and it is strong! At first I said ‘yuck’, but it’s been about 20min and it’s calming down. Definitely agree with the sunscreen and pool party comparison! I asked my son who is 5 yrs old if he liked it and he said”yeah, it smells like candy!” So this is hot off the press, kindergarten kids will love it😆 he is not a fan of my Revlon Ciara, so this kid clearly can’t be trusted! I do think it will be better in the summer months, but we will see. I have pink sugar, berry blast and the red velvet one and a sample of gold sugar. Those are delicious and can be worn year round in my opinion. The longer it has been on, the sweeter it’s becoming!

To me Creamy Sunshine smells very sugary, creamy, slightly vanilla, a hint of honey, orange peel, ylang-ylang and another flower I'm not sure what, and some coconut cream, I can kinda detect the caramel somewhere in there too. It's a very strong overpowering scent and not what I imagined when I first bought it years ago. I like it better now years later then I did first times I smelled this. Back then to me it smelled like an intense sugar bomb, with a hint of honey and ylang-ylang ylang-ylang and some bathroom spray to keep the bathroom smelling nice. Do I wear this ? No. Its kinda to overpowering to my nose. But I like keeping it in my collection.

This definitely has that Pink Sugar DNA, but definitely with an added creamy, summery vibe. I don't really get any of those added notes in a distinct way; they kind of mash together to just give this overall "tropical" vibe. I didn't find this to be a strongly coconutty fragrance, so if you aren't a fan of coconut, I'd say go ahead and give this one a try anyway. I think I still like the original best, but this one is a nice addition to my collection. Also, I'm kind of pleased to see people saying this is in the same general family as Love by Kilian, I've been meaning to try that one and if they're even a little bit alike I will probably enjoy it.

Sweet sugar yellow flowers. It's a nice smell. I didn't come into this with any expectations but was excited when I saw the notes. It's warm and after reading some reviews was so excited to get creamsicle or lemon cake - but no. It's not that but it's still good. I like this. I wish it lasted longer and I wish there was an exquisite dry down but it stays consistent, and it disappears on me after a few hours, maybe three. I like this very much and wish it lasted longer. I think the name and colour of the tube captures this scent well - it's creamy sunshine. It's warm, sweet and a field of gorgeous yellow - orange - red flowers.

Skin test, spring. Two sprays to inner forearm. White floral with a 'socks' overtone, the only other frag if got that from is juicy couture peace love. It will be the white florals somehow. This isnt floral flowery perse, more rounded floral and soft sweet. There is a few tone to the white florals as there usually is, I dont get much in the way of coconut - however when I checked the notes, the coconut could be the coconut water flavour as a smell. Creamy, simple florals, non foodie sweet. No burnt sugar. Decent longevity; I'm at 5 hour mark and it has definitely dried down, but going well, non offensive

It's okay. not what I was expecting but it's good. I don't really get much vanilla at all to be honest and it just smells like a strong white/yellow floral perfume. I'm not typically one for florals but I like yellow floral fragrances the most out of florals so I do find myself wearing this but very very rarely. It doesn't smell sugary sweet or edible like some say, and I blind bought this expecting that and I was disappointed. It's a sweet floral and nothing more. nothing special. It's alright. I prefer the original pink sugar to this. Try before you buy!

This scent takes 80% of Pink Sugar DNA with a blast of orange and a bit of white florals in the opening. By orange I mean thick, syrupy orange, not light and fresh mandarin like I had hoped. I do like the smell, but it seems very difficult to wear. The original Pink Sugar opens up way more fresh, which balances out the heavy caramel. I thought it was a mess at first when I smelled this on paper, but after wearing it on my skin, the resemblance to Pink Sugar becomes obvious and I like it more. I do not get any coconut at all.

I really like this on my skin. It definitely gives a sweet, rich, creamy coconutty caramel. I don't actually like coconut so it isn't a love for me, but the name is very fitting. Unfortunately this does NOT have the lasting power or the sillage that the OG Pink Sugar has, which is extremely disappointing. The scent is very intimate to the skin and only lasted around 4 hours on me even when fully moisturized. A good cheapie that I'd reach for on days I'll only be out for a short period, but definitely not for long days.
