Prada Candy Gloss
I am not a fan of Prada Candy, too powdery on my skin. Candy L'eau is better, I don't love it but I do like it. It's lighter and fresher than its predecessor, it's a shame that it was discontinued. Prada Candy Gloss is a solid love for me. It's a complete deviation from the other two that I mentioned. It was a blind-buy so I was understandably nervous but after the first spray hit my body and I got a good whiff of it, I breathed a sigh of relief.
I recognized the cherry right away, that's the note that stands out to me in the beginning. It settles on the skin quickly and I can smell the almond and vanilla mingling with the cherry and I have to say, I really do get a "cherry lip gloss" feel from this fragrance and I truly enjoy it. If I didn't know what this was and someone told me that it was a unisex niche fragrance, I would believe them. I can't pick out the rest of the notes because they're so well blended but the overall effect is so pleasing. Not the same by any means but certainly in the same vein as Maison Margiela's Lipstick On (which I also have) but true to its name, it's more glossy and less lipsticky.
I find this fragrance different, unique and interesting. No one will be able to guess what you're wearing with this one.
Staying power on my skin is good. Three sprays in the morning easily lasts me all day. The Fall-like weather we've been getting in Ontario has been perfect for this scent to really shine.
I don't think that it's a safe-blind buy for most people so be sure to try before you buy.
