Which Should You Buy?
Prada Candy is an absolute enigma, splitting the room right down the middle. For some, it's a buttery, powdery dream - sophisticated, clean, and deeply comforting. For others, it’s a baffling disappointment: weak, synthetic, and inexplicably devoid of anything resembling 'candy'.
368 goes straight for Prada Candy's caramel-vanilla gourmand core, and the sweetness lands well, but it misses the original's musk-powder texture that keeps Candy from tipping into pure sugar. Sweet, cozy, and fun, if simpler and shorter-lived.
