This fall, the cosmetics company Hard Candy launched its first fragrance. This scent, which is called Hard Candy Fragrance was created for the hardcore Hard Candy client: a sweet, sexy and playful young woman.
The fragrance is made from white tea, pink peppercorn, rose, jasmine, caramel, vanilla and cashmere musk. It's fun, it's spicy, it's floral... it's hot.
What most impressed me about the perfume is the grown-up packaging. The black flowers berries and branches on the bottle strike me as very sophisticated for this brand. If not for the bright pink or green jewel-cut caps (which glow when the light hits), I would have thought this was a scent for thirty-somethings! Also, it comes packaged in a very pretty foil origami box featuring artwork from the bottle.
Hard Candy Fragrance is available as a 3.38 eau de parfum spray ($55) and as a 1.69 oz spray ($42).

Never been a fan of them...
1Wow I want to smell this! I bet it would be fantastic!
2i want to smell it. is their makeup good?
3LOVE the bottle. I am definitely going to have to sample this one!
4I gotta try this!
5Many of my students love this brand (I'm an 8th grade teacher). They love all the glittery, sparkly cosmetics they carry...I bet the fragrance will be popular with younger females. It sounds like it would smell nice...
6Shoot, I'm a thirty-something and I love hard candy stuff... maybe I need to check myself, perhaps I'm getting too old for this crap. Sigh.
7That bottle is hot!
8My sample from the last contest giveaway came yesterday (thanks Bella
), and the
vanilla was so strong that it didn't smell good on me. Vanilla is kind of my cosmetic Kryptonite, so I'll be sending it to my mom. The sample bottle is totally cute though, it's kind of a
shame it doesn't smell good on me.
9Cosmetic Kryptonite, too funny! And Francesca Fiore, I wouldn't say you are ANYWHERE near "too old." If you like Hard Candy, why not enjoy it?
10i bought it about a month ago .. its so great to wear for the fall & winter!! ... it changes over to different fragrances as time goes on ... i get tons of compliments
11hhhhmmm....so many fragrance choices!!!
12As far as "target age" and fragrance: What? I don't think what smells good changes as we age. Some of my favorite fragrances are from childhood and will always be favorites. When I was about 8, I remember my mom saying I was too young to wear her "Evening in Paris." True, I'm sure, but for anyone past high school, I say any fragrance goes.
13cute bottle.
