Marshmallows, juicy peaches, and candied lemons are usually things you'd expect to find in a sweet shop, but Rabanne has just introduced them in the world of perfumes. Rabanne Fame Gummies brings three candy-inspired gourmand perfumes into the mix, each housed in a miniature version of the brand's iconic Fame bottle. The limited-edition Rabanne collection features Marshmallow Baby, Citrus Sweety, and Peachy Girl, three 4ml Eau de Parfums that can be worn individually or layered together.
For anyone who believes vanilla makes almost everything better, Marshmallow Baby could be the sweetest pick of the trio. The fragrance opens with sour raspberry, moves into a fluffy marshmallow heart, and settles into creamy vanilla. The raspberry adds a tangy fruity edge to the composition, keeping it from smelling like an overly sugary dessert. It belongs to the amber gourmand musk family. If you want to go to the extreme here, know that this is arguably the most confectionery-inspired of the three.
Not every gourmand fragrance needs to smell like a bakery. Citrus Sweety takes a brighter route, combining candied lemon with orange blossom and a velvety milk accord. The result is a citrus gourmand floral composition that balances sweet-tart freshness with a soft, creamy finish. It is the one to reach for if you like your fragrances with a little zest rather than an overdose of vanilla.
Peachy Girl brings a fruity twist to the collection, pairing sweet peach with Chantilly cream and warm sandalwood. The juicy fruit and creamy accord give it a dessert-like quality, while sandalwood adds a smooth woody finish. Classified as a woody fruity gourmand fragrance, it offers a slightly warmer take on the collection's candy-inspired theme.
The Rabanne Fame Gummies Mini Trio is priced at US$35 at Sephora and includes all three fragrances in 4ml Eau de Parfum bottles. The limited-edition set is currently a Sephora exclusive in the US. For those interested in trying the collection in a different format, Rabanne also lists a Fame Gummies sachet on its US website for US$31. However, an India-specific price and launch date have not been announced yet.
With Marshmallow Baby, Citrus Sweety and Peachy Girl, Rabanne gives gourmand fragrances three very different interpretations- creamy sweetness, bright citrus and juicy fruit. You can try wearing one fragrance at a time or mix all three to create your own signature scent.
