What is your favourite Prada fragrance?

Just asking around!

My favourites are Prada Amber Pour Homme (Smells expensive, very classy, I highly recommend people check this one out, especially if you are looking for a soapy scent) and Infusion de Vetiver (I like it, hint of pepper and earthy woods which balances the soapiness which cuts through the air), and the 2010 latest release of the Prada Infusion d'Iris EDT version (Which is a lighter and more subtle version of the Eau de Parfum released earlier, the EDT bottle design is a light green with frosted glass).

What Infusion d'Iris EDT looks like



So if you have tried Prada...

What are your favourites?

Infusion d' Homme. I am really impressed by the longevity of Prada frags. Their is something about the sillage that allows the wearer to step outside themselves. You cant smell it coming off you but somehow you aware of its essence. Does this make sense?

Further, its got that vibe like you are constantly stepping out of the shower freshness.

It seems that the Prada fragrances generally cut through the air because of their soapiness, it isn't something conventional when you are walking on the street. I definitely get the impression of "Clean" and "Refined".

But I have no idea about what you said about the "essence" part lol

Tried a couple, owned a couple, offloaded after they didn't really grow on me. Narciso from their "exclusive" range is not bad, I haven't tried the rest. From the regular line, I like the recent Vetiver, it is pretty decent.

Loving the latest Musk for Him and Her collection, including the Musk oil. Say Matthew you are from Singapore right? I'm flying back end of the year, any idea where they are available? Would like to acquire the Musk for Him version.

Amber- both the mens and womens. They're both exceptional but also safe, and the womens is one of my mom's favorites so of course I like it for that reason, too.

I have no idea either what i was grasping for, the Sheilas sitting on Dynamite Dennis' lap doing cologne reviews make more sense sometimes

Prada Amber PH aka Man works for me. Infusion is waaaaay loundry soapy to me, but longevity and projection are a bomb!

Prada Amber Man really has this soft, refined, romantic aura to it.

Infusion d'Homme. The only one I own from Prada, though I've tried a lot of them.

Hey... I have a feeling you have confused Narciso #5 from Prada, which was what I had meant, with Narciso Rodriguez?

Anyway, if you're looking to try the Prada Narciso #5, the Prada Boutique here in Orchard Road, might have it. As for Narciso Rodriguez Musk, I think you will have a good chance finding it at the NR counter at Tangs Shopping mall in Orchard Road. I haven't been there in a while, so I'm not very up to date, but I can call up and check if you're really interested.

Infusion d'Iris EDP. Yes, sold as a women's scent, but many men wear this.

Infusion d'Homme. To me Infusion d'Homme is soapy, whereas Amber Pour Homme genuinely smells like soap.

I would think that Infusion d'Homme is chalky clean white soap
Amber Pour Homme to me is more floral, soft, clean soap
