Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - L'Instant de Guerlain Extreme EDT
This is a beloved, borderline legendary scent that people hoard bottles of. It's a rich, sophisticated gourmand that demands attention and respect, though it won't please everyone with its unique combination of anise and dark chocolate.

Our Verdict - Tendre EDP
Prada Tendre is a divisive wonder, a sophisticated scent that opens bold and woody before settling into delicate elegance. It's not for everyone, but those who 'get' it find it utterly captivating, a unique take on modern femininity that stands apart from the crowd.

Tendre

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn
Also Works:
Spring Summer Winter

An autumn-weather scent at heart - warm leaves and shorter days territory.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Date Casual
Also Works:
Formal

Its moderate sillage and 'put-together' fresh-yet-warm character make it ideal for office wear and casual settings, with many reviewers noting its professional appeal. While refined enough for formal events, its gentle nature and lack of overpowering projection might not command attention in larger gatherings.
