Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Candy
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'.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Prada Candy
Prada Candy is a sweet treat with a rich blend of caramel and vanilla that leaves a lasting impression without overpowering.
