I have to say that men DO seem to like Pink Sugar, and I used to, too! But the more really great scents I find, the more this one smells, well, fake to me. I just can't wear it any more; it's too sweet, too artificial-smelling & too cloying. (At last Christmas I did try a little vanilla extract behind the ears.. that was okay...)
I miss SEPHORA's somewhat similar scent of several years ago called just Brown. Men adored it (including my DH) & so did I: it had a very natural sweet scent like warm cake or cookies just out of the oven, but was not as overpoweringly (fake) sweet as AQUOLINA Pink Sugar. Oh well, maybe SEPHORA will bring back Brown someday. 'Til then, no more super-sweet fragrances for me (or even food-scented ones, actually - I am so over this trend! Glad EMILIO PUCCI just came out with Vivara, which smells nothing like food)!
Pros:Men certainly seem to like girls who smell like cookies; not overly expensive; fun Cons:Overpowering, fake "sweet" smell; gets cloying after awhile; unsophisticated
This scent is a very overpowering powdery scent that I have a hard time liking, I thought because of the very pretty packaging that it would be pretty and sweat , I was mistaken .
I've been wearing this fragrance for a few years now. I have yet to find anything else that can compare to its YUMMY scent! I love it, love it, love it!
Pros: Cons:Not long lasting. I find myself re-applying often.
I wore this scent a couple of times because I received a sample from Sephora. I was told by my male friends that they loved it because it reminded them of the sweet smell of STRIPPERS! I like the scent but I feel its better suited for young girls.
OMG this is my HG fragrance. I wear it almost everyday. My DH loves it, and the guys at work follow me around trying to sniff. LOL I have been wearing this for over a year. I got it for Christmas in 2005, and the bottle BARELY lasted me untill this Christmas. I got two bottles this year, as well as a solid perfume, lotion, and lip gloss. Talk about a haul!
I gave the packaging a 4 only because one of the bottles I got for Christmas this year had a tiny leak where the metal meets the glass on the top. It had leaked a tiny bit into the tube it comes in. It has not leaked at all since then.
I love this perfume. It smells very sweet-but complex. It is a spicy cotton candy with a hint of carmel. However, I find the scent wears off within a few hours.
Pros:Sweet smelling Cons:you have to keep appyling throghout the day
This smells differently on me than it does on most people, but I guess that's a good thing. For some reason my freakish body chemistry brings out a spicey-ness to this scent. And so it smells like peppery cotton candy, which is actually a unique and interesting blend.
I wouldn't purchase this again because I don't reach for this scent enough and doubt I will ever use up the bottle that I have.
I loved this perfume so much that I bought it for my mother inlaw for Christmas. We were both so happy until this week. Both bottles of perfume (purchased at different times from different places) have gone bad. The perfume now smells like rubbing alcohol!!! It has turned a yellowish color and doesn't smell like cotton candy anylonger...We now smell like hospital patients. I don't think it is too much to ask to have a perfume last longer than 8 weeks. Don't buy this if you do not plan to use it in a months period time.
This is a delicious warm oriental fragrance. It smells like a confectioner's shop! It smells like a concoction of pink cotton candy, vanilla, caramel, and those little dot candies that come on paper strips. It reminds me of warm, cozy childish things without smelling like a child!
I love Pink Sugar and wear it once a week, at least. I love how it has a caramel smell that blends with the cotton candy smell. Will repurchase this one for sure.
Pros:sweet, dreamy smell Cons:none that I can think of
I was absolutely dying to try this out. Initially, I had it as a linen spray (from an etailer, not Aquolina) and I loved it so I got the fragrance. Now it does smell delicious! It's kinda like a complex cotton candy. However it's just such a sweet candy like smell to wear all the time. I really don't ever wear this because I feel like it's not light enough for summer/spring and too sweet! I like to smell it, but I def. wouldn 't repurchase.
Oh I just love this fragrance. It smells so yummy and sweet. It is one of my new favorite's. It says it smells like vanilla and caramel. I smell those notes but it smell like cotton candy too. Just delicious. It is not too juvenile or kiddish. It smells sweet but adult sweet. If you like sweet, mouth wateringly yummy fragrances this one is for you.
