Which Should You Buy?
This flanker is an intriguing diversion from the original 'Carbon', sparking fierce debate among fans. Expect a love-it-or-hate-it response to its prominent licorice, but don't knock it 'til you've tried it - it's a bold departure for Prada.
This is a decent, affordable everyday fragrance that gets unfairly lumped in with the 'Fierce clones'. It's not a beast, nor trying to be - just a versatile, fresh-spicy scent with a subtle boozy twist that makes it stand out. A genuine hidden gem for the price.
