Prada revisits its masculine fragrance, L'Homme Prada, in a more intense version. Born in 2016, L'Homme Prada is a fragrance that offers an image of the modern man, at once elegant, charismatic and proud of his masculinity. This fragrance was presented by Prada alongside its feminine counterpart, as though to suggest the vision of a contemporary couple.
With Amber pour Homme and Luna Rossa, the house of Prada offered men a chic, sophisticated, slightly retro yet fiercely original perfumery. Daniela Andrier's composition for L'Homme Prada, then for L'Homme L'Eau and L'Homme Prada Intense, lives up fully to this fine originality. L'Homme Prada exudes a masculine-feminine style, while L'Homme Prada Intense cultivates the beauty of its opposites between iris notes and sensual notes.
Between floral sophistication and virile strength, L'Homme Prada Intense stands more contrasted than ever
The house of Prada seeks to create fragrances that correspond perfectly to the unique style of its couture collections. Whether with its feminine fragrances or with its magnificent collection of masculine fragrances, Prada infuses its fragrances with a spirit of timeless elegance that toys with traditional accords to turn them into resolutely modern fragrances.
Thus Daniela Andrier composes Prada masculine fragrances that do not seek to follow the major trends of the moment but rather the spirit of the house. A spirit that led the perfumer to revisit lavender for Luna Rossa, aromatic accords for Amber pour Homme, and finally the magnificent iris flower for L'Homme Prada.
Thus L'Homme Prada Intense loses none of the beauty of the majestic iris Pallida; better still, it manages to magnify the contrasts expressed in L'Homme Prada, making them even stronger in character, and more charming too…
L'Homme Prada Intense expresses the plurality of masculine identity through the intense notes of Amber and Patchouli, which intersect with the floral refinement of Iris, while Tonka Bean brings an airy, Oriental dimension. Prada on L'Homme Prada Intense.
L'Homme Prada Intense and the strength of its opposites, signed Daniela Andrier
Daniela Andrier deeply enjoys surprising with striking pairings between accords of the past and scents of the present; she is also very attached to certain raw materials she finds hard to do without in her compositions, which is particularly the case with iris, which she admits to using in numerous compositions. From Infusion d'Iris to L'Homme Prada and L'Homme Prada Intense, the Prada perfumer draws out iris Pallida in all its finest facets.
I do indeed find it hard to do without iris; even in very small doses, it is always there. Daniela Andrier.
Thus L'Homme Prada Intense opens this time directly on the beautiful powdery iris flower. An original opening for a masculine fragrance usually opened with citrus notes, but one that echoes the violet top notes that opened L'Homme Prada a year earlier.
Then, in its heart, L'Homme Prada Intense reveals itself more virile and stronger than ever, with leather notes paired with a searing, animalic amber accord. A warm heart that willingly departs from the very first installment of 2016, which highlighted geranium and black pepper notes. On the other hand, the woody depths of L'Homme Prada Intense recall the original bottle with an oriental patchouli, this time tinged with a tonka bean that lends intense warmth and gourmand character to this addictive L'Homme Prada Intense.
