Alright, so I decided to give this Lattafa Yara Candy stuff a try. Heard some talk about it, mostly online, people saying it’s super sweet, like the name suggests. I’m usually more into woody or fresh scents, but sometimes you just want something different, you know? So, I picked up a bottle.
Getting Started with It
The bottle itself is kinda cute, very pink, definitely looks the part for something called “Candy”. Nothing too fancy, but feels solid enough. Took it out, looked okay. First thing you gotta do is spray it, right?
So, I went for that first spray. Spritzed a bit on my wrist. Whoa, okay. Yeah, that’s sweet alright. Like, straight-up candy shop sweet. Not in a bad way, just… a lot. It wasn’t like one specific candy, more like a mix of fruity hard candies and maybe some vanilla or marshmallow fluff mixed in. Very upfront about what it is.
Wearing it Through the Day
I decided to wear it out for a casual day, just running errands, meeting a friend for coffee. Put a couple of sprays on in the morning.
- Initial Hour: Super strong candy vibe. Very noticeable. Almost felt a bit young, maybe? But hey, I was trying it out.
- Mid-day: It calmed down a bit. The really sharp fruity sweetness kinda mellowed out, and more of a creamy, maybe vanilla or powdery smell came through. Still sweet, don’t get me wrong, but less like sticking your nose in a bag of sweets. More like a gourmand dessert smell.
- End of Day: By evening, it was much softer. A faint sweet, musky, vanilla-ish scent was left on my skin. It definitely lasted a good chunk of the day, I’d say maybe 6-7 hours before it got really faint. Performance wasn’t bad at all, especially for the price point these usually go for.
My Final Take
Okay, so what’s the verdict? Lattafa Yara Candy definitely lives up to its name. It’s intensely sweet, especially at the start. It does evolve a bit, getting creamier and softer as it wears, which I appreciated.
Is it for me? Probably not an everyday thing. It’s a bit too sweet for my usual preference. But I can see why people like it. If you genuinely love those super sweet, gourmand, almost edible-smelling perfumes, this one delivers exactly that. It’s very feminine, very playful, and yeah, smells like candy.
It performs well, lasts a decent amount of time, and usually, these Lattafa scents are pretty affordable. So, if sweet and candy-like is your jam, I’d say give it a shot. It does what it says on the tin, simple as that. Just be ready for the sweetness!
