Where to buy

Drawing on the competitive spirit of this race, one of the most renowned in the world, the house decided to turn it into a collection of fragrances. Today, Luna Rossa delights men and comes in multiple versions. Further enriching this famous fragrance lineup, Prada is proud to present its latest composition: Luna Rossa Black.

Luna Rossa Black, a fragrance imbued with dynamism and determination

The America's Cup is one of the most renowned sailing races on the planet. It is also considered one of the most demanding sporting events in the world. Indeed, it combines the participants' unfailing determination with cutting-edge engineering in the building of its boats. And it is precisely this boldness, this authenticity, this drive to surpass oneself and this precision that can be found in Prada's Luna Rossa collection. The latest Luna Rossa Black seems to have been designed to push the men who wear it to go further. It is a fragrance filled with vitality, strength, virility and character. With it, nothing will stop your rise and you will be ready to face all of life's daily challenges!

Luna Rossa Black, an unexpected freshness in a black-lacquered bottle

While Luna Rossa Black embodies the seventh version of Luna Rossa, it must be acknowledged that its composition radically departs from that of its predecessors. Indeed, until now, lavender was always placed at the center of Prada's fragrances. Today, it has completely disappeared. All that remains of Luna Rossa is its balance between freshness and power. The composition of Luna Rossa Black opens with a lively, floral pairing of angelica and bergamot. Coumarin then appears in its heart, bringing a more marine freshness. It is joined by patchouli, a virile ingredient that opens the way to a darker, more distinctive sillage. Finally, Luna Rossa Sport closes on a woody, amber base. This new fragrance is presented in the emblematic bottle of the Luna Rossa collection, originally designed by Swiss designer Yves Béhar. The whole is now entirely lacquered in black. Its iconic red band has completely disappeared, and two finishes, one matte and the other more shimmering, play off each other for a particularly refined result.

The various Luna Rossa fragrances by Prada

Luna Rossa Black is far from a first attempt for the house of Prada. It all began with a woody fougère dominated by lavender, in 2012. Then, in 2013, Luna Rossa Extrême placed the emphasis on a more crystalline bergamot dotted with spices. In 2015, Luna Rossa Sport became more effervescent, pairing lavender with ginger and juniper berries. In 2016, the Eau Sport emerged as the most energizing version of the range. Finally, the latest Luna Rossa Carbon, from 2017, expressed a more mineral freshness.

Its story began in 2012 and continued through numerous variations on its scent, as shown by Luna Rossa Extrême in 2013, Luna Rossa Sport in 2015, the Eau Sport in 2016, and the latest Luna Rossa Carbon in 2017. All these fragrances share an athletic determination. Today, Prada once again offers men a new breath of dynamism, inviting them to discover its latest release, Luna Rossa Black.
