Reviews of Yara Candy are extremely polarized, with both its strengths and weaknesses being very clear:

**A Thousand Perceptions of Strawberry:** Reviews of the strawberry scent vary widely. Some smell “sparkling strawberry candy,” others “sour gummies,” and still others find no strawberry scent at all.
