Candy Yum-Yum

I bought this as a blind buy. I read many mixed reviews but I guess in my head I was thinking it would be a cotton candy type of scent like the yum yum bears when I was a child. Unfortunately, and I have seen others mention this note although it’s not listed, it seems to have patchouli in it at least to me. It reminds me of La Vie Est Belle and Flower Bomb both of which give me an almost instantaneous headache. Initially when I smelled it before spraying it all over myself, it smelled amazing and so fun and girly. As it dried the patchouli or whatever that note is came out and I can’t wait to wash it on. It’s sad because I had high hopes for it and it has such adorable packaging but this one is for sure getting returned. I will be sticking to my more simple floral perfumes from now on. EDIT: I gave this another try two years later after a popular YouTuber mentioned how great it was. I’m so glad I gave it another chance. I love it now! I spray it in the air and walk through it and I don’t spray it on my skin. It smells like a fruity and comforting scent to me. I think you can wear it all year and each season will bring out the notes differently which I love.

Fun, sweet and fruity. I wore this the other day, (it was warm), and noticed how this became more deep and spicy on my skin, which i didnt detect earlier while using this at home in the evening. Its tropical scent, made for spring and summer. Suitable for casual wear, not serious at all. Very uplifting. While wearing this I felt like those very feminine women who takes good care of their appereance, nails and makeup on fleek, kinda way. :D which im not personally but that kinda image i got from this. It's not juvenile kinda sweet, i imagine woman at the age 20-30ish wearing this. (I dont believe age in the fragrances tho).Im gald i got it, although i was little fence about it at first, but decided to pull the trigger and order it blindly, mostly because its discontinued, plus it was on good price and i needed a good summer fruity scent. Its better made compared to the escada fragrances, in my opinion. Gonna get good use for this while spending time at home and casually going out at the summertime.

I finally got my hands on one of these. Candy Yum Yum is my all time favorite lipstick. It was the only one I kept among the many Mac pink lipstick I've encountered. Having it as a perfume was a perk and so when I got the chance, I snagged one. I admit I expect alot of cotton candy, from hearing and reading and watching the first reviews that came out. Alot said it was sweet which was my first expectation, and it is but the most prominent allure is that is smells more tropically and very fruity. The first note I detected is the strong guava mixed in with sharp crispness of the cherry blossom while the iris gives it's depth and richness. The cotton candy is there but mixed in and afterward the main notes transition to a soft warm skin musk. This is like Pink Barbie scent. Loud, electric but girly. I wish it did last longer because it's a unique scent that really represents the pink iconic lipstick.

I put one spray of this on my wrist at Macys shopping with my daughter. The whole drive home I kept having my daughter smell my wrist bc it was wafting in the air and I’m thinking “this is surprisingly pretty, I think I need it.” I don’t even usually go for sweet perfumes. That is totally not my vibe. 45 min later we go into a sandwich shop and immediately when I walked up to the counter the nice young man at the register says, “Wow your perfume smells really good.” He was at least 10-12 feet away from me. I don’t think I’ve ever gotten a compliment from a stranger like that from a distance like that and with one spray. The jury is still out on longevity, but It’s going on the to-buy list. This is incredibly sexy, sweet, feminine, and head turning. Idc if it doesn’t last that long. It’s an addictive, affordable scent. MAC can have my money.

I’ve been wearing this for years! It smells delicious. So edible & super sexy. It’s delicious.... What more can I say? It’s sweet and yummy. Lasts for hours on my skin. Days....weeks on my clothes. I have no idea why they are discontinuing this fragrance? I just purchased two from Macys. I see belks has them for $48. I heard department stores are selling the last of what they have left. MAC IF YOU SEE THIS PLEASE KEEP THIS FRAGRANCE! Also make a body oil, bath soap & lotion to go with it. This fragrance is everything. Especially for my girlies who love cotton candy!!!! This fragrance is confident, flirtatious, sexy and youthful. It’s GORGEOUS 💘 Candy 🍭 yum yum...💘💕💘 forever! I’m making my 100ml stretch!
