Candied Lychee
ScentArt
Which Should You Buy?
Divisive, darling. Some call it an affordable, sexy tropical chypre akin to Gucci Rush, while others wish they could return their 'rotting fruit' bottle. Apparently, the original is a sought-after gem, but good luck finding one that hasn't turned.
This one's a proper sweet shop bonanza. Forget subtle - Candied Lychee is a juicy, unapologetic burst of candied fruit and petals. Some love it as a vibrant mood-lifter, while others find its sweetness a bit much, verging on synthetic. It's a divisive one, but never boring.
