Ariana Grande MOD Blush Eau de Parfum

Most Helpful Positive Review

My favorite rose perfume EVER!!

I'll admit that I didn't go into this with super high expectations. I read a TON of reviews that favored Mod Vanilla, so imagine how surprised I was when this ended up being my favorite out of the Mod duo!! Mod Blush starts off very citrusy and fruity; the bergamot and passion fruit are both very de...tectable, and they stay prominent through the perfume's lifespan. Very shortly after, the rose and pear join in, and that's when it becomes heavenly to me. I normally don't like rose in fragrances at ALL!! But the rose here is so subtle, smooth and gentle… the way it mixes with the pear is simply divine. When it's fully dried down, you can definitely smell the musk, woody notes and ambroxan. It lasted on my skin for around 6-8 hours, which is above average for an Ariana Grande perfume on my skin!! Overall, while not being the most complex or unique perfume ever, it's fun, done well, and definitely crowd pleasing! I could honestly see myself wearing this all year round. My only complaint is with the bottle; it looks very cute, but it's difficult to find the right angle to hold/spray it from. Of course, if I'm going to review Mod Blush, I also have to talk about its counterpart, Mod Vanilla. To me, Mod Vanilla is a mixture of Cloud and Sweet Like Candy, with a hint of a tropical & powdery vibe that makes it wearable all year round… which is perfectly fine! But not something I'd say I need in my collection, considering that Cloud is much longer lasting and a fragrance that I already own. (Mod Vanilla only lasts for around 4 hours on me.) The two Mod perfumes are very different, but there's definitely something in both of them that makes them feel like sisters, so it makes sense that they were released together! Mod Vanilla is a very powdery vanilla, while Mod Blush is a fruity rose. Both are year-round for me, but I definitely prefer Mod Blush, since it both lasts longer and managed to pull off a rose note in a way that I truly love!! In a weird way, Mod Blush is almost what I initially expected Thank U Next to smell like, if that makes sense. In conclusion, if you want a fun citrusy/fruity rose perfume, go with Mod Blush! If you don't have Cloud or Sweet Like Candy and want a powdery vanilla perfume in your collection, go with Mod Vanilla! That's all I have to say for now.
