By the editors · 2 min readFor You by One Direction opens with a sweet, almost candy-like brightness that settles quickly into something warmer and more approachable. The sandalwood base provides a soft, creamy foundation that feels neither bold nor austere—this is a perfume designed to be pleasant rather than provocative.
As it develops, the sweetness persists but becomes more rounded, edging toward a musky vanilla territory that stays close to the skin. The sandalwood lends a hint of woodiness without any real sharpness or depth. Everything about it feels smoothed out and youth-oriented, the kind of fragrance that works well in casual settings or for someone just beginning to explore perfume.
It wears as uncomplicated and agreeable, a light veil rather than a statement. The longevity is modest, fading to a faint sweetness within a few hours. This is perfume as gentle companion rather than conversation piece.
