About this deal

I had a My Little Pony in the 90s with a green mane and this is close enough to activate that scent memory, and also grown up enough to wear in my 30s. On my skin, this actually did smell like caramel quite accurately, so I was surprised to see so many people saying this smells like hairspray or cleaning chemicals! soft and lowkey, won't offend anyone but as someone who usually prefers stronger perfumes this one is almost too bland. Magnified by White Musks, noble Benzoin comes together with a modern Caramel accord to give the fragrance a truly unique signature.

Prada skincare unveils a new dimension of beauty with a technology-powered line that enhances skin’s natural qualities through a complete beauty routine. I am not violently jolted back to a 1940s boudoir with talc and iris in the air, but rather gently reminded of a retro sort of femininity without it being kitschy. A lot of people say this is a mature gourmand, but a lot of young people are wearing sweet musks lately (see young, hip brands like dedcool) so I think this is still as relevant as ever. This isn’t bad it’s really not its just not meant for gourmand lovers it’s meant for people who like a little something that’s cozy they can personally enjoy on themselves with out projecting there scent to others they may share a small space with and be confident if they have to give someone a hug or shoulder to cry on they smell warm and inviting when they do. I expected this to smell like straight caramel, but it doesn't and I'm ok with that because it's comforting scent too.Explosive, excessive and sensual, this fragrance is an explosion of shocking pink and gold, combining, in excessive proportions, White Musks, noble Benzoin and a modern touch of Caramel. Modernist geometric patterns and sleek lines decorate Prada plates that define the table together with bowls, soup plates, and dessert plates made of very fine porcelain.

If the issue isn't just body chemistry, then I'm perhaps anosmic to something on here, which is why I only get soapy notes and none of the sweet and pleasant smelling ones that people rave about. However, if you are looking for something to be a good signature scent that is good for most occasions, then this is a good one.

there is no hint of caramel or candy in this perfume and it smells exactly like a baby wipe bag (literally) however i don’t hate it. but i got none of the caramel notes at all, it smelled like green sheen hairspray from the brand olive oil.

I assume this is a fragrance of choice for the type of person who perhaps in early autumn wants -everything- to smell like pumpkin spice.

It smells a little like Hypnotic Poison to my nose, some of the notes are definitely the same, but this is a lot less almond and a lot more caramel/vanilla, with an almost soapy freshness to it. Lastly got an oxidised powder puff that belonged to someone in 1912 and you opened it in 2023 only to choke over it.

But to each is there own I’m sure some people are in love with this scent and I’m happy for them it just not me sadly this go round. But if you look past that, this is a feminine, sweet, warm fragrance, with just enough cosy powdery freshness to elevate it above the usual generic vanilla blah-blah-blah.

I cannot say I don’t like it as on others it smells like something that I would love but on me it’s non existent.I have no idea if this has been getting reformulated every few years or if I just interpret it differently throughout my life. The powder and musk make the experience feel complete and comfortable, like I'm being tucked into sweet warmth. This is a second review on this perfume because I made the first before truly delving into the fruits and sugars and marshmallow patchoulis that became popular. I absolutely love this smell, it’s so powdery and sweet and cute, it’s so beautiful but sadly the longevity is extremely weak.
