The review
018 scores 6.1 out of 10 on paper — worth a try territory for anyone chasing Candy.
Blossom Perfumery sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Candy's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
At $34 per 100ml it costs 69% less than Candy — the 2nd cheapest of 6 twins we can price.
Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.
Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Blossom Perfumery publishes, the price per 100ml, and how firmly the match is claimed. How it really smells on skin is what the votes below are for.
What it's built to smell like
Prada Candy is caramel and bergamot at first, benzoin and vanilla at its heart and musk, vanilla and benzoin at the end. Blossom Perfumery set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.
Top
- caramel
- bergamot
Heart
- benzoin
- vanilla
Base
- musk
- vanilla
- benzoin
Burnt caramel over powdery benzoin, sweet without ever tipping into sticky.
Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
