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'.
This one's a proper gourmand... maybe too proper. Some find it a delicious, grown-up dessert, others get a whiff of something a bit rubbery underneath the sweetness. It's a divisive caramel hit that you'll either adore or dismiss as a Halloween mask. Try before you buy, obviously.

Occasions
