Review title is Sweet scent not enough staying power for me [SEP] First off I don't really think of cotton candy much when I smell this scent and I've tried nearly every cotton candy scent everything from Aqualina pink sugar to gale hayman delicious cotton candy to bodycology to yes even that iconic cotton candy we all wore as a teen by body fantasies. It's more closer to a vanilla scent but with a strong almost caramel-y tone to it, it reminds me far more of vanilla bean noel by bath and body works rather than most if not all cotton candy scents I've ever tried. Not a bad scent but for me I need my sweet Gourmond scents to be stronger than this and last much longer than 30 minutes to 1hr at best. If you love a quality sweet smell that's stand alone this might not be for you I think a 3.5 would be more fair it's close to a 4 but just not quite for those reasons. However I don't regret this buy I use it to top up other scents since it's nearly a brown sugar vanilla sort of caramel scent it goes well with most sweet scents (strawberry pound cake, Scarlett kiss, dark kiss, Oahu coconut, Hawaiian hibiscus etc) to intensify it but-- cannot really for me last alone if I rebought it it would be to use as that-- a topper scent. Also, not a bad scent for someone wanting a cheaper dupe for Eilish but again not as strong and not as lasting. So I'd bet a younger lady such as a teen or preteen would like this one vs myself who likes a sweetsie scent I just need it stronger, more longer lasting.
