The review

Candy Kiss scores 6.5 out of 10 on paper — strong contender territory for anyone chasing Candy Kiss.

Palermo Perfumes sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Candy Kiss's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.

At $23 it costs 78% less than Candy Kiss.

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 Palermo Perfumes 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 Kiss is orange blossom and bergamot at first, vanilla and musk at its heart and benzoin, musk and vanilla at the end. Palermo Perfumes set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.

Top

  • orange blossom
  • bergamot

Heart

  • vanilla
  • musk

Base

  • vanilla
Orange blossom whipped into vanilla musk, softer and prettier than the original.

Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
