Should I use DontDestroyOnLoad or prefab for player

I am making a 2D Platformer game (my first game). At the end of each level, a "Level Complete" screen appears, where the user can press a button to go to the next level. I use different scenes for each level. My question is, should I use DontDestroyOnLoad for the player when changing scenes or should I have a prefab for the player and a different player object in each scene?
