I've talked about this with my friend Leah before. This is a love or hate fragrance. We both LOVE it. Such a beautiful scent. Go to a store and try it out. Because if you love this, it will be you HG!!! If you don't, then well that sucks. But you get the point.

Ok all fragrances are not for everyone.Different personalities and body chemistries and taste.Some of you people think this stuff lasts some don't.People think it smells"old" some don't.These reviews should be telling us if we like a certain fragrance than we may want to try this one. I personally like florals and not heavy perfumes.This surprised me ...I liked it...To ME it is a winter day with a warm yummy dessert kind of like Angel. I am older but it's my daughters BF's HG.I think it smells expensive but not heavy.If it smells rich that doesn't make it old...You just have to try it and I would....It my favorite right now

My HG fragrance. Nice clean smelling woody oriental. Delicious and inoffensive.

Prada is my new angry/serious fragrance. I selected the EDP recently after a quarrel with my husband. Out of all the fragrances I sampled that day, this was the only one I felt conveyed seriousness. Some of the nuances in this fragrance (when freshly spritzed) make me think of aggression and for some reason, reptiles and reptile skin, but not in a negative way. I am saving this for PMS days and other times when I anticipate confrontation. The lasting power on me is mediocre, and I do like it but not enough to pay eighty-five dollars plus tax for it more than once.

Beautiful bottle. But it's awkward to hold and aim....
More importantly, however, I love this scent, and will continue to repurchase. I suppose it works with my "chemistry", because when I wear it on a date, the guys find it irresistable. Women sometimes comment, "you smell good". I'd like to see a lighter version for warmer months.

It smells cheap and musky. In fact TOO musky, sweet, and strong. It gave me a headache.

Meh. Smells like generic fancy-shmancy perfume. Nothing intriguing or unique about it. Nothing that jumps out at me and says "lovely". Nothing alluring or endearing. Nothing special at all about it. When I think of "fancy department store perfume", this is the scent. Typical, generic high-end perfume. A little sharp, a little spicy, and a little too much will give you a pounding headache. No thanks. Maybe Prada Tendre is better. We'll see.

To me, and to any other lady worth the salt on the rim of her glass, scent must agree with that day's wardrobe concept. So... if jeans/t-shirt/sandals= Bobbi Brown Bath, then pencil skirt/red lips/4"heels=Prada. Perfectly. I swear, the smell of it makes me taller. And poutier. And vaguely European.

LOVE THIS!! CAN ONLY SPRAY ONE OR TWO SPRITZES B/C INITIALLY IT CAN BE OVERBEARING. WEARS OFF PRETTY FAST THOUGH - THIS IS MY ONLY COMPLAINT AND THE BOTTLE IS A BIT AKWARD BUT OTHERWISE I LOVE THIS SCENT. I CAN UNDERSTAND WHY OTHERS WOULDN'T LIKE THIS AS IT IS DEFINITELY AN ACQUIRED SCENT. WILL PURCHASE AGAIN.


EDIT: THIS HAS NO STAYING POWER. LOVE THIS SCENT BUT LASTS ONLY 1 HOUR BEFORE WEARING OFF. IT IS SO DISAPPOINTING BECAUSE THIS IS A FAVORITE OF MINE. AND IT IS TOO EXPENSIVE TO NOT HAVE THE STAYING POWER!

it'z an old-world charm kinda scent. something which need to be acquired over tyme. otherwise, this is straight-up GRANNY to me. impossibly likeable, other than the kind with avant-garde noses.

I've had a sample vial for some time so I decided to test drive it today. All day long I was like, "damn, I smell sexy!" I was totally jocking myself, smelling my wrists every five minutes, smiling smugly everytime I caught a whiff. I really like this, but there are other fragrances with similar notes that I like much more, so I don't see me buying it. Then again, the instant ego-boost wearing it gives me ain't bad.

The reviews seem to be mixed on this one. I quite enjoy Prada. It is one of my favorites. It is fairly long-lasting in my opinion and its character evolves over the course of the day. Even though I live in a warm climate (Arizona) it has been quite wearable, even in the summer.

I'm not the best at picking out notes - but it starts off as a powdery amber, that seems to move into spices and sandlewood, and finally, patchouli.

I find this fragrance to be quite modern and sophisticated.

This is my favorite scent. I'm not an old blue-haired lady, though. I'm 35-years old and quite fashionable, thank you very much.



I'm not a label-chaser, either, so I don't love this because it says "Prada". In fact, I find it embarrassing that, when ever I get a compliment on this perfume(which happens fairly regularly- and I'm talking compliments from strangers, here!), and I get asked "What are you wearing?" I have to say "Prada". Sounds so pretentious!



On me, this scent lasts all day. At the end of a long 8 hours at work, my husband still takes a sniff and says how nice I smell.




I'm stunned when I read the product description and see that one of the prevailing notes is patchouli. My god, I hate that stuff! I think it smells like dirty hippies!



But I love amber scents, and I love sandalwood, and I love this scent from Prada.

Prada is a very, very nice oriental and not too overwhelming like the older orientals.

Prada has just the right amount of patchouli and musk for a sensual dry down that lasts , but is never cloying.

The bottle , in its minimalist style, is exquisite to look at and hold.

Generic all-purpose old lady scent. There is really nothing special about this fragrance other than being a rich***** item to show off on your dresser. I do like the sleek bottle, but really, haven't I smelled this before in other department store fragrances. Notes: Bergamot Oil Italian, 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 ABS LMR, Vanilla Absolute, Musk, Sandalwood Oil. With all these scents you'd think something would be complex, but it fails miserably. I can see some posh woman in her 60's or 50's going mad over this and making it her signature scent. You know the kind, like the editor of Vogue or Harpers Bazaar magazine with their tweed Chanel suits, Prada bags and big round sunglasses. I think this fragrance ages people.

GROSS!!! This fragrance STINKS!! It smells very overwhelming at first and only hours later does it dry down to a tolerable scent or I would have rated it the worse. It reminded me of "old Ladies" potpurri scented sachet...something my Grandma would have laying in her lingerie drawer...Or like someone said a "funeral parlor"...yeah, that too. There is definitely a scent in this one I truly dislike and it is not patchouli (sp?) because I love Angel and that has a heavy note of patchouli (sp?)....Pricy and stinky!!!!

This scent is terrible! I'm shocked that a high-end designer could not come up with a wonderful scent, although, I shouldn't be shocked, D&G put out putrid scents on the market as well! Maybe designers should stick to what they know, clothing and accessories and not scent, but one exception; Tom Ford's Azuree Body Oil Spray for Estee Lauder! This scent is amazing, hands down!

I was given this at the time it had just come out and really wanted to like it, but several aspects of it have annoyed me so much that it is in the boot of my car, acting as a v expensive air freshener. That is except for the fact that the smell is not very fresh, but a bit sickly... The packaging looks swanky initially, but the stuff leaks everywhere, and before you know it, half the bottle has evaporated. And the twee/naff little atomiser starts looking tatty very quickly too. The smell is ok, but rather overpowering, and not the thing if you prefer (like I do) a floral/green perfume.

Yuck move on this is just overpriced and the fragrance has such a funeral home smell...step away and don't waste your money. I am sure you Prada lovers would buy anything with the logo on it but please come to your senses.
