Ariana Grande introduces Cloud Aurora, the third fragrance in her popular Cloud collection. The new release follows the original Cloud and Cloud Pink, expanding the line with a warmer composition built around sugar, musk, vanilla, woods, and amber.
FRAGRANCES
Grande describes Cloud Aurora as the most personal fragrance in the series to date. Its development took several years, as she wanted the perfume to retain the comforting character associated with Cloud while establishing a distinct identity within the collection.
“Cloud and Cloud Pink are two fragrances that will always be so close to my heart and ones that the fans continue to show overwhelming love to, even after all this time,” Grande says. “Developing a new fragrance for this franchise was years in the making because I knew it had to be absolutely perfect in order to live within this collection and really stand on its own.”
Cloud Aurora opens with spun sugar, fluffy musk, and juicy blackcurrant. The combination introduces a sweet and airy first impression, with the fruit note adding brightness to the softer sugar and musk accord.
Vanilla-dipped petals shape the fragrance’s floral heart, joined by cozy woods that bring warmth and depth. As the scent settles, vanilla smoke and golden amber create a richer finish, extending the gourmand character while introducing a darker, slightly smoky quality.
Grande wanted the fragrance to feel both comforting and uplifting. She compares the composition to “wrapping yourself in the warmth and light of a vanilla-kissed daydream,” positioning Cloud Aurora as a softer, radiant addition to the line.
The bottle retains the cloud-shaped design associated with the collection while introducing a pearlescent finish that reflects and shifts with the light. The updated presentation connects the fragrance to the visual identity of the previous Cloud releases while giving Aurora its own luminous character.
