A long shot
FragDNA score · on paper
The review
A long shot. That is where Candy lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Candy.
Oil 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 $125 per 100ml it costs 32% less than Candy — the 6th cheapest of 6 twins we can price.
Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Oil 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
What it is chasing: caramel and bergamot up top, benzoin and vanilla in the middle, musk, vanilla and benzoin underneath — the shape of Prada Candy.
Top
- caramel
- bergamot
Heart
- benzoin
- vanilla
Base
- musk
- vanilla
- benzoin
Burnt caramel over powdery benzoin, sweet without ever tipping into sticky.
How it ranks against the other twins
Of the 8 twins of Prada Candy we can price, Candy is number 6 on price per 100ml.
