Take Me To The Candy Shop,
I absolutely love this fragrance and i am so thankful to those who tried the previous versions and begged Aaron not to discontinue this when he was talking about actually doing so. I also have to thank Aaron for not only listening to his fans unlike so many designer houses do when they reformulate or just discontinue their most popular fragrances to replace their best flankers with something subpar, but also thank him for actually listening and on top of that going the distance and making the fragrance perform better and upping the concentration to an Extrait De Parfum! What more can you ask from a perfumer? So this is the 2023 version of Hard Candy i own.
When i heard he had done this i knew this was a perfumer i had to take seriously and try out his fragrances ASAP and after talking to someone about strawberries recently in fragrances, i was looking for a fragrance with that note in it and of course came across Hard Candy, and here it is in the mid, great i thought!
I love this fragrance. It only arrived yesterday evening at about 8pm and from the time i sprayed it on until the time i went to bed i just could not stop smelling myself. You would think looking at the notes this wouldn't be wearable in summer but this is easily wearable all year round. I am guessing the Elixir will be more of a winter setting version, i could be wrong.
I also got 2 samples, Legend 2023 which is a blue fragrance very close to Luna Rosa Carbon and Sauvage but with what i could recognize was Aarons own twist after i had smelled the other 2 fragrances i have of his. What intrigued me more though was a sample labelled "Autumn Release" which really has me excited. I am sure that is the working title and it will have a full release name when it comes out. After 9 months of winter weather which is not normal, even here in Scotland never have i been so excited to get to Autumn before when the weather is rubbish here, but i am so excited about this Autumn fragrance coming out!
What i love about his fragrances is they are absolutely high quality, and he makes it available to us all because he has his 50ml bottles and 10ml bottles at very good prices, so we can all have a taste of the niche level fragrances he produces himself.
Yes, most of you probably know this but for those that don't Aaron has a YouTube channel reviewing other houses fragrances, but he is first a perfumer then a reviewer. He creates them himself, and he creates them so that he can wear them himself also, so you know he is going to be intent on making the best product possible, hence the new 2023 improved versions. Honestly i feel invigorated and so excited with just these three alone. i am definitely buying more and this is just after i recently got my first 4 Xerjoff fragrances yet i am more intent on buying more of Aaron's fragrances first, that should tell you something!
If you have not tried Aaron's fragrances, trust me now is the time to with the upgraded formulations and at the prices he makes them available to us all, especially the 10ml bottles at roughly £15-£35 there is no reason not to try them. This is a new favourite house for me, just nudging out Lorenzo Pazzaglia from 1st to the No.2 spot. They are both great, but i feel so excited with what i have smelled from Aaron so far and it has been a while since a fragrance made me feel this way hence me leaving a review which i hope you can feel my excitement from which is hard because words written can only go so far and is why i urge you to try the fragrances for yourself to experience it on your own. Remember when reading some of the older reviews that some will be from his older versions.
