Infusion de Fleur d'Oranger: A fragrance to savor! The beauty of the first masterpiece of the Infusions de Prada, Infusion d'Iris, generated so much acclaim that it was impossible for Miuccia Prada and her nose Daniela Andrier to stop there.
After the magnificent Infusion d'Iris, it was hardly possible for the powerhouse duo formed by Miuccia Prada and Daniela Andrier to stop there! Better still, they gave us Infusion de Fleur d'Oranger as well as Infusion de Vétiver that same year. They then continued to amaze us with their Infusions over the years, without ever stopping. But what is it about this Infusion de Fleur d'Oranger that makes us dream so much?
Infusion de Fleur d'Oranger, or the delicate marriage of retro scents and modern accords
The birth of the Infusions de Prada collection came first with the release, in a limited edition, of Infusion d'Iris in 2015. A composition so delicate, so refined that it delighted perfumery aesthetes and generated such overwhelming demand that it became necessary to offer it to everyone's noses, which was done a year later.
Miuccia Prada and Daniela Andrier soon complemented Infusion d'Iris with two other equally precious fragrances, Infusion de Vétiver and Infusion de Fleur d'Oranger. These three perfumes together formed the brand new Infusions de Prada collection. Fragrances created solely to magnify raw materials and blend past and present in sophisticated yet understated swirls, running counter to every current trend, in fact. A bold and daring gamble that Daniela Andrier won hands down, as the quality of her fragrances leaves no one indifferent.
I am indeed at the opposite end of the spectrum from flashy perfumery. There are so many clichés in this world. I do not believe every woman wants to wear a sexy fragrance or smell of gourmand caramel, exclaims Daniela Andrier about the Infusions de Prada.
Daniela Andrier, Miuccia Prada and their shared passion for the multifaceted orange blossom
Infusion de Fleur d'Oranger is thus an ode to the neroli flower, a flower Daniela Andrier holds particularly dear, one she has worked in multiple ways, so passionate, almost enamored, is she with it.
I believe I will never be done with orange blossom, smiles Daniela Andrier, at the end of a long interview about this component of modern perfumery. A note that is at once precise and multiple, revealing itself as sensual, limpid or concentrated depending on the interpretations she has given it throughout her career.
Infusion de Fleur d'Oranger thus opens with sparkling, luminous notes of mandarin and petitgrain. Then, at the heart, the precious neroli flower appears at its most beautiful, accompanied by the delicacy of jasmine notes and the mysterious, sensual power of tuberose. This intense floral warmth is rounded out by the enveloping presence of white musks and a few powdery notes, carrying us further into the heights of these sun-drenched scented swirls.
Let yourself be carried away by an Infusion de Fleur d'Oranger and breathe in summer and the scents of sun-drenched flowers... without ever trying to resist it!
