Candy Eau de Parfum
by Thomas Kosmala
Candy Eau de Parfum by Thomas Kosmala delivers a sweet, airy fruity profile centered around cherry and cotton candy, with creamy vanilla and caramel undertones. It shares strong similarities with Burberry Her Elixir and Mancera’s Instant Crush—particularly in its smooth, gourmand-berry character and long-lasting, tenacious sillage. The fragrance projects well and lingers on skin and fabric for days, making it ideal for those who appreciate strong, have-your-own-way perfumes with a candy-laced trail. While some find it slightly redundant given its resemblance to existing fragrances, many love its playful, mass-appealing sweetness and clean, crystalline drydown that avoids the sharpness of Baccarat Rouge 540. It performs best in spring and summer, and benefits from its extended lasting power, especially for those seeking a bold and memorable olfactory presence.

Cons
- −Perceived as a direct copy of Burberry Her Elixir or Mancera Instant Crush by some, offering little innovation
- −Can be overly sweet and self-repeating for those already owning similar gourmand/fruity fragrances
- −Not ideal for subtle or minimalist wearers due to its intensity and molecular strength
