Where to buy

In this continuity, Prada has this time decided to release both of its previous chapters in more concentrated versions. Focus on L'Homme Prada Eau de Parfum Intense.

Prada's contrasted notion of gender

By choosing to unveil L'Homme Prada Eau de Parfum Intense and its feminine counterpart at the same time, the house of Prada chose to play on the complexity and complementarity of gender. For Prada, man and woman are not distinct entities. They are complementary and almost interchangeable. In the eyes of Miuccia Prada, it is important to avoid clichés and not fall into an excess of virility. Indeed, in her view, there are as many different masculine characters as there are men on this Earth. It is precisely this diversity that she sought to incorporate into the composition of L'Homme Prada Eau de Parfum Intense. The result is a fragrance with multiple facets, all drawn from rigorously selected raw materials of the finest quality.

The new bottle design of L'Homme Prada Eau de Parfum Intense

As for the bottle, L'Homme Prada Eau de Parfum Intense borrows heavily from the codes of the house of Prada and closely resembles its predecessor, L'Homme Prada. Its bottle displays two parts joined into a single block. The front face of L'Homme Prada Eau de Parfum Intense was once very light in color. Now, it is entirely lacquered in black. It displays a flat surface adorned only with the Prada name in relief. The back of L'Homme Prada Eau de Parfum Intense, meanwhile, is more rounded. It too is entirely covered in black. This dark, mysterious opacity only heightens the masculinity of the whole. The overall effect is resolutely chic, deeply rooted in the world of Prada.

The warm breath of L'Homme Prada Eau de Parfum Intense

From there, all that remains is to hope that this fragrance's composition lives up to its promises. Well, it would seem that this is a successful wager for the house of Prada. Here again, L'Homme Prada Eau de Parfum Intense carries a character fairly close to that of L'Homme Prada. It showcases the elegant, powdery character of iris, a flower particularly favored by the house of Prada and reserved exclusively for fine perfumery. Indeed, iris is today one of the most expensive flowers in the perfumer's entire palette. Here it is joined by the powerful and complex character of patchouli. This delivers an earthy, woody and camphoraceous breath. It is softened by the roundness of tonka bean as well as by the more syrupy warmth of amber. The result is a very balanced fragrance, both sensual and virile.
