You create a string that concatenates all the pieces you need and use that as your key in your map, with the value being the CPD Id. Then you build that key again while looping through your Prospect Product Details and get the value from your map.

The code below will not compile, but it should give you an idea as to how to attack this problem. 

Map<String, String> complexKey2CPDId = new Map<String, String>();
String complexKey;
// loop through and build my complex key map
for (Contract_Product_Delivery__c each : myListOfCPDs) {
    complexKey = each.Prospect + each.Prospect_Product + each.SubItem + each.SAPId;
    // put this in the map with the complex key as the key and the CPD Id as the value
    complexKey2CPDId.put(complexKey, each.Id)
}

// loop through the Prospect Product Details and set the CPD Id
for (Prospect_Product_Detail each : myListOfPPDs) {
    complexKey2CPDId = each.Prospect + each.Prospect_Product + each.SubItem + each.SAPId;
    each.Contract_Product_Delivery__c = complexKey2CPDId.get(complexKey);
}
