Which Should You Buy?
This 90s throwback is a love-it-or-hate-it affair, a punchy citrus floral that some find invigoratingly sharp and others, well, just sharp. It screams Y2K youth, so if you're not into loud fruity florals, best steer clear. Expect a full-throttle nostalgic hit.
Sugar Daddy leans on the same juicy watermelon-grapefruit-into-cedar arc as Candie's Men, the late-90s drugstore classic it's inspired by. The dupe pushes the fruit louder and simplifies the woody-mossy base, so it reads brasher up front but fades quicker than the (already modest) original.
