Eden Juicy Apple | 01 by Kayali

Eden Juicy Apple is a part of the Kayali Fragrances sample set that I bought fairly recently. I’ve been working my way through testing out each of them for review, and am going to kick things off, with this one. How does Eden Juicy Apple Smell? Does it last long? Is it worth a try?

My Full Review

Here’s how Huda Beauty describes it: Playful and vibrant, this succulent scent is a tempting, mouth-watering fusion of crisp and juicy red apples, sweet berries and fresh floral notes that will keep you wanting more and more…

Eden starts off very sweet, tart, and quite juicy. It does indeed have a similar start to Thank U, Next 2.0, with it’s apple juice top note. I did like that perfume’s opening act. There’s also an aspect of Angel Nova here, with it’s massive fruit hit, in its opening.

Yes, it has a candy-like and sugary sort of aroma. You’re going to have to enjoy that aspect, to appreciate this perfume.

The red apple is the main focus. Initially, though, there is a battle for the second spot between lychee and the berries. The berries will win out and act as a fruity support to the apple. Early though, this one is a fruit bomb.

Within 20 minutes or so, that hyper fruitiness will subside. I mean, this will stay an apple-centric fragrance throughout, but the berries and lychee will retreat, especially.

The rest of the way isn’t super complex. There is a jasmine note which sits underneath musk which sits underneath the apple/fruit blend. A very vague hint of vanilla, if I press my nose to the skin. That’s about it.

Sillage, Longevity, and Versatility

That opening with the fruit does hit a high peak. At that point, it feels like it will be a massive projecting perfume, that leaves a scent trail of substance behind anywhere you walk. That’s true, for that first 20 or so minutes.

After that, it’s all mid-range. This one never feels weak, a hair above average. Not one that was jumping off of the skin, after that opening bit.

The longevity here, is about 6-6.5 hours on skin. I sprayed on a t-shirt, also, and that lasted noticeably for hours beyond that. But, if you’re not spraying on fabric, the performance isn’t outstanding. Not terrible, either.

Seasonally, this would probably be best in the springtime. Summer, also. It’s freshness feels pretty sharp in the cold weather. I tested it out in more moderate temperatures and that felt right for Eden Juicy Apple.

On it’s own, this is more of a fun, daily casual. Or, even something for the younger crowd. It’s attractive in a playful way, but nothing that you’re going to wear to the office, date night, or in more formal situations.

Overall Impressions of Eden Juicy Apple

Overall, do I like this perfume? Sort of. The opening 20 minutes is fun, not really anything amazing or unique, but if you like these sort of candy-like fruit aromas…this is a cool example.

After that, it’s pretty basic. Musk, jasmine, and fruit give it a good deal of a shampoo sort of vibe. Perhaps not as clean and juicier than what you’d get from that, but fairly in line with what you’ve probably experienced before…just in perfume form.

It does have a lot of popular shampoo or body spray aromas. The quality here is better than those, just don’t expect a super formal fragrance.

The performance is decent. For some, it may even be below average. On me, it was pretty good.

As it stands on its own, it might be worth a try. Not one to blind buy a full bottle of. Unless, you have plans to use it as a layering scent. In that case, it’s probably going to have more value than a solo perfume. Eden is a nice enough entry from Kayali, but nothing special.
