  1. It’s a rich, sweet grape scent without being cloying, though the opening smells a bit synthetic to me. On the skin, I detect grape, lychee, and sandalwood, but they feel a bit powdery. I don’t pick up on the other notes. Out of the entire Umm Candy line, this is the one I like the least; it’s not bad, just not the best. Ideal for teens or young adults.

  2. It’s a rich, sweet grape without being cloying. However, I don’t like the opening because it smells synthetic; up close it’s grape, lychee, and sandalwood, but a bit shy and powdery. I don’t detect the other notes. Out of the entire Umm Candy line, this is the one I like the least: it’s not bad, just not the best. Ideal for teens and young adults.

    Smells like sweet grape, and I don’t really sense the other notes. It’s perfect for right after a shower.

    Smells good—more fruity and floral than sweet. It has a citrusy or acidic touch that makes it feel different and more refreshing than warm. The scent is pleasant, even if it’s not exactly my style. Still, it’s worth trying, especially if you’re a fan of the grape vibe.

    Smells good, more fruity/floral than sweet. It has a citrusy/tart touch that makes it feel different and more refreshing than warm. The scent is pleasant but not really my style, hehe. Worth trying, especially if you love the little grape :3♡

    The scent is exquisite—sweet but more floral, smelling of grape and orchids. Delicious and subtle, ideal for spring and summer. It reminds me slightly of Britney’s Midnight Fantasy but much softer. It’s not as sugary as others in the line because it lacks the cotton candy note; the longevity isn’t the best either, as Sugar Princess and Sugar Chic seem to last longer, but I still adore it.

    Big disappointment with this Splash. The opening is overwhelming—not because of sweetness, but due to a bitter or chemical note. The trail and longevity are terrible; it barely registers on the skin. I ended up using it as a fabric spray, where you can actually smell it a bit. It’s an extremely light fragrance, maybe better suited for summer. Out of the three Umm Candy scents I’ve tried, this is the least favorite.

    Major disappointment with this Splash. The opening is overwhelming due to some bitter or chemical note, not sweetness. The trail and longevity are terrible; I can’t even smell it on my skin. I ended up using it as a fabric spray, where it does show up a bit. It’s an extremely light scent, maybe better for summer. It lacks the sweetness of the other Hmmm Candies. Out of the three I’ve tried from the line, this is the one I liked the least.

  10. A sweet and fun fragrance, fruity-floral oriental style; the bottle is original and novel. Perfect for gifting to a girl between 13 and 20 years old.

    What a delicious body splash! Smells like a grape tart with sugar, super sweet. Absolutely amazing for post-bath use.

    This body splash is so delicious! It smells like a grape pancake with sugar, super sweet and perfect for after a shower.

  14. If you’re looking for a body mist that smells like sugar, this is the one… smelling it reminds me of shaking out the sugar bag into the shaker. The trail and longevity are scarce, but I spray it on my pillow before bed, and as the song says, ‘it’s almost a religious experience.’ If someone could create this scent in a perfume with moderate longevity and trail, it would be my favorite, but unfortunately, that’s not the case. In conclusion, while I think it’s a great aroma, I wouldn’t repurchase it due to the poor trail and longevity; I compare it to VS’s Vanilla Lace, which, despite being a body mist, lasts forever.

  15. Sweet! A light, pretty, and pleasant sweetness. The downside is the longevity, but no big deal since it’s a body splash.
