Prada Prada is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2004, created by Carlos Benaïm, Clément Gavarry, and Max Gavarry. Prada opens with Bergamot, Bitter Orange, Mandarin, and Mimosa, settles into a heart of Patchouli, Rose, and Pink Pepper, and dries down to a base of Musk, Sandalwood, Tonka Bean, and Labdanum. Prada's Prada carries an Acquired verdict, a fresh-led wear.

This one's a proper love-it-or-hate-it affair. Expect a bold, confident blast of earthy patchouli and rich amber - a sophisticated scent for those who appreciate a strong statement, and definitely not one for the timid.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Its potent projection and long-lasting nature, coupled with its rich, amber-patchouli profile, make it less suitable for office wear. However, its elegance and perceived sexiness are perfect for formal events and date nights, where its bold character can truly shine.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

Other declarable allergens

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Bitter orange peel Citrus Aurantium Amara Peel Oil from Bitter Orange
  • Sandalwood Santalol from Sandalwood
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Opens with a fleeting flash of bright bergamot and bitter orange, quickly yielding to the star of the show: a deep, earthy patchouli heart intertwined with sweet mimosa and a hint of spicy pink pepper. The dry down is a luxurious embrace of warm amber, creamy sandalwood, and resinous labdanum, creating a complex, sensual warmth that lasts for ages.
