Sugarpop Cotton Candy

I recently got this fragrance for $10 at Burlington. I was hoping for a super bright cotton candy type scent and was really excited for the passion flower note (because I used to find wild ones growing around Texas and they always fascinated me with their alien like beauty). Tonight to try this fragrance I put it on after my shower. I usually use a tea tree and rosemary Shampoo, a very bright scented shower gel from BBW, and then Strawberry Pound Cake lotion by BBW. I then sprayed one spray on each wrist of this perfume. Before the dry down it was very muddled and indistinct what I was smelling. 30 mins later, I am smelling it and I get a very clean fresh scent to go with my lotion and body gel, and I am picking up on the champagne and black currant note. I don't smell patchouli at all currently. For me this is definitely something I'll wear when I want something that is a clean skin scent on me. I'm probably going to try to pick up a back up or two from Burlington to make sure I have more since it is a discontinued scent.

I saw this at TJ Max. I was intrigued by the name which reminded me of “Pink Sugar”. I bought it for a good price for 1.7 oz. First two sprays on my wrist were great! I could immediately smell the top notes most noticeably the champagne and black currant. It stayed that way for about 30 mins or so, followed by the middle notes. Top and middle notes were blended so smoothly. The dry down is soft, sweet but not cloying. The Amber just made it such a lovely fragrance. I like it a lot! It’s safe to use daily. I have Pink sugar and to me, this is way better! It’s a safe blind buy.

I blind bought this at TJMaxx for $10 thinking it would be similar to cotton candy cloud by bath and body works. I was familiar with the brand because for some time femme noir was my signature scent. This particular perfume DOES smell very bright, fruity, and sweet but I do not get any cotton candy notes. At first, I was disappointed with it not smelling like the way I thought it would in my head but I since gave it another try and now I use this more as a layering perfume.

Pretty sure I got this from Burlington or TJ Max for probably about $10. This doesn’t smell like cotton candy whatsoever. It’s more fruity, picking up the black currant with a hint of grape and I also get the amber on the dry down. It’s a nice smell that lasts about 6 hours and people can smell you as you walk by as well. I wouldn’t compare this to Pink Sugar at all. It’s in a category of it’s own but still very sweet. Worth the buy. 7.5/10 🙂

This WAS very sweet, but I wasn't hit with the kind of Cotton Candy I was lookin for. If you love a Pink Sugar Aquolina type of cotton candy fragrance, Jean Marc Paris actually has a better one called "Sexy Secret". It's fruitier with a core of almond instead of the strong Anise. I find it has a better balance between all the elements than the original.
