Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Candy Night Eau de Parfum
Prada Candy Night is a proper marmite fragrance. Some find it a delicious dark chocolate dream, others recoil from a bitter orange and iris combo they describe as stale cigarettes or bug spray. It's a divisive scent, sure to get people talking - for better or worse.
Statement
Our Verdict - Van Py Rhum Eau de Parfum
This is a bold, divisive, love-it-or-hate-it vanilla bomb that swings between boozy delight and cloying overdose. If you're after a dark, sweet, and unique statement scent, this might just be your intoxicating potion, provided you can handle the intensity.
