Ariana Grande Sweet Like Candy is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2016. Sweet Like Candy opens with Bergamot, Pear, and Blackberry, settles into a heart of Marshmallow, Cream, Jasmine, and Honeysuckle, and dries down to a base of Cashmere Wood and Vanilla. Ariana Grande's Sweet Like Candy carries a Statement verdict, a sweet-led wear.

Sweet Like Candy is a divisive one, people either adore its syrupy, playful sweetness, or they find it too juvenile and fleeting. If you're after a loud, long-lasting gourmand, this probably won't be your jam. But for a delicate, sugary fruit hit, it delivers.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual

Its sweet, light, and often short-lived nature makes it great for casual wear or dates where a subtle scent is preferred. However, for formal events or the office, its playful and sometimes perceived 'juvenile' character, combined with variable longevity, might not be the best fit.

About

Opens with a juicy burst of blackberry and pear, brightened by a whisper of bergamot, before quickly settling into a creamy, dreamy heart. Marshmallow, whipped cream, and vanilla create a fluffy, lactonic sweetness, intertwined with soft florals like jasmine and frangipani. The dry-down is a warm, cozy vanilla with a hint of cashmere wood, reminiscent of powdered sugar and berries. It's a sweet, fruity, and undeniably gourmand experience.
