Ah, sweet Prada. How do I love thee? Let me count the ways...
When do I wear it?
Frankly, I haven't worn it in a while, but the stars aligned this morning.
When it first came out, it was one of my absolute favorites. I reached for it first.
It had everything going for it.
It was strong, but not too strong. It had sweet patchouli -- more than most fragrances had had for long time. It went through various stages, and it was just different from the rest on my shelf. Amber is there, but toned down, and definitely wearable.
Prada Notes: Italian Bergamot Oil, Orange Oil, Bitter Orange Oil, Mandarin Flower, Mimosa India, Rose Absolute ABS, Schinus Molle ABS LMR, Peru Balsam, Patchouli Oil LMR, Raspberry Flower, Labdanum Resinoide LMR, Tonka Bean , Musk, Sandalwood Oil. Amber fragrance with 4 dimensions.
Sweet Patchouli
If you follow my blog, you know I love patchouli, but not the dry, sour kind of headshop patchouli left over from the 60's. I'm talkin' about sweet patchouli.
I wanna wear patchouli into the 2010's. I don't want to go back, no matter how nostalgic the era of the 60's is. The negatives of the era are right up front for me too. Perhaps what I want is to go back to the future.
And absolutely a man can wear this.
Even if there is a man's version.
Do you wear Prada?
Which is your favorite Prada fragrance? Do you wear them all, just depending on the day or your mood or the weather? I found Prada Infusion d'Iris got monotonous on me. But Prada (original) zings. I may give Prada (Amber) a try. I'm going to spritz some more. I'm ready for overkill, because I know this one doesn't.
