- A shared threadPowdery, musky and sweet run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put Prada Candy Collector's Edition in fall and Forbidden Bloom in summer and spring. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Prada Candy Collector's Edition is moderate and strong, Forbidden Bloom long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointPrada Candy Collector's Edition first, then Forbidden Bloom over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
