Prepare for the Kayali Candy Rock Sugar Hype
Kayali Candy Rock Sugar is a new perfume upcoming shortly for the Summer 2024 season. This new gourmand fragrance contains notes of Candied Pear, Sweet Violet, Bubblegum, White Caramel, Rock Sugar, and Vanilla Cream. Sounds dreamy doesn’t it? I absolutely love gourmands as you well know but I gotta admit Kayali has def disappointed me in the gourmand realm lately. Kayali launched in 2018 with four fragrances which I purchased I believe I purchased during the Spring Sale if I recall correctly! I absolutely loved them at the time (and still do). The thing I’m not thrilled with when it comes to Kayali is the odd way it went from being “too expensive for a non-niche brand” in the fragrance community to suddenly becoming an absolute must buy. I’m so happy Kayali has evolved, introduced new scents, and gained such a great following. What I don’t love is the overhype of some of the newer scents. A lot of Tiktokers rave on and on and on about the newest Kayali fragrances and I sadly fail see the hype. For example, Kayali newest fragrance Eden Sparkling Lychee and Yum Pistachio Gelato were really overexposed and overhyped. I expected incredible things from Yum Pistachio Gelato because not only were some of my favorite fragrance influencers amazed with it but also, the marketing was just so damn beautiful I was positive that it was going to smell like a creamy pistachio ice cream dessert. Thankfully, I didn’t go into my purchase blind buying a large bottle because it was a rather disappointing scent. Eden Sparkling Lychee which carries the same name as Kayali Eden Juicy Apple was a similar experience. As a lover of Eden Juicy Apple I expected a sweet, fruity blend from the lychee version but it fell flat for me too and was equally overhyped.
