Mango addiction?
Maybe my nose is playing tricks on me, or maybe Marshmallow Addict in the rectangular bottle last year was slightly different from the current cylindrical bottle. I remember that I tried it briefly, really enjoyed it and wanted to retest it, but then it was sold out. It smelled like the older Escada summer editions from the early 2000s to me, maybe a bit like Tropical Punch, and also a bit creamy underneath all the fruitiness. It's definitely a misnomer though, nothing about this scent ever was even remotely reminiscent of marshmallows.

Anyways, I was pretty happy when I saw this come back this year. But when I tested it again, the magic was gone, and it didn't come back while retesting. This is a nice Escada-esque summer fragrance, but it doesn't smell like the older ones from my youth. It's better balanced than some of the more recent editions though (looking at you, Summer Festival, Flor del Sol and Miami Blossom).
The main note is clearly mango, with a fresh, shampoo-ish feeling and enough sweetness to keep it from going sour (a problem I sometimes have with mango). The base is a fluffy white musk that anchors the fruitiness nicely, but it's not quite as creamy as I remember.

A perfectly fine summer option on a budget, but nothing mindblowing, and not even especially outstanding among the other currently available Zara fragrances.

"Marshmallow Addiction" has no marshmallow to be found
I feel like fragrance makers shouldn't be allowed to include a note in the title that isn't in the scent lol ("marshmallow"). Moving on...

To me, Marshmallow Addiction is "fruity fresh shampoo" (pear, apple, soft white florals) + powdery sweet tarts.

On a tester strip, it maintained more of the "fruity fresh shampoo" (watery green apple) than it did on my skin, which is a bummer because I would have loved more of that.

Dry down on my skin also was very quiet and had a hint of something like burnt sugar, which I did not enjoy - but I understand could have just been my own skin chemistry.

Overall, this was pleasant but a bit synthetic for my taste and didn't wow me. There are many stronger, and more dynamic, sweet "fruity fresh" fragrances that I'd prefer over this one - such as:

- PacSun Nollie
- VS Endless Love
- VS PINK Honey Passionfruit
- BBW Beautiful Day (2023 release)

Peach Addiction in a top hat
I wasn't actually planning to get Marshmellow Addiction because I didn't want anything sweet.
But when I tested it in the Zara store, I was pleasantly surprised. The perfume smelled like a fruit basket, but not like sticky marshmellow sweetness. Zack, I bought the perfume. 23€ for 80 ml, you can do that.

Flacon:
Cylindrical, with colorful gradient and golden lettering. Heavy glass, but sits comfortably in the hand. Plastic stopper sits firmly on the bottle.

Fragrance:
The fragrance description on the Zara homepage says "delicious fruity aromas" and "sunny floral aromas". The former kick things off and I think it's peaches. Crisp, fresh, sun-ripened peaches from the tree, not from a can. Mmm, delicious! I don't notice any floral aromas, the peaches are too dominant. Only slowly do vanilla and musk penetrate and round off the fragrance well. In retrospect, the name of the perfume is somewhat misleading, Peach Addiction or Peach Dream would have been more appropriate.

Marshmellow Addiction is a playful, fruity fragrance that is clearly intended for the warmer seasons. The sillage is average for me. The fragrance lasts longer on clothing, of course, but you will need to spray it on again. Because at some point the peaches get legs.
