Prada Paradoxe

Product Overview

Prada Paradoxe is a floral amber fragrance for women launched in 2022 and created by perfumers Nadège Le Garlantezec, Antoine Maisondieu and Shyamala Maisondieu.

The fragrance explores the contradictions at the heart of Prada, reworking familiar perfumery materials through contemporary extraction techniques and modern aroma molecules. A specially developed neroli bud extraction captures a fresher dimension of the flower, while Ambrofix™ provides vibrant amber warmth and Serenolide™, an innovative musk molecule, creates a soft yet persistent trail that is perceptible from the opening.

Freshness, sensuality and intensity are brought together in a composition that combines luminous white flowers, juicy fruit, warm amber and enveloping musk.

What Does Prada Paradoxe Smell Like?

Prada Paradoxe opens bright and juicy with pear, tangerine and bergamot. The fruit has a fresh, sparkling quality, immediately softened by the musky presence that runs throughout the fragrance.

Orange blossom, neroli and jasmine sambac form the floral heart. The distinctive neroli extraction emphasises the flower's crisp freshness, while orange blossom and jasmine introduce a sweeter, more sensual white floral character.

The dry down becomes warmer and creamier through Bourbon vanilla and benzoin, surrounded by amber and soft white musk. The result is a luminous floral amber balancing juicy fruit and fresh neroli with smooth vanilla, warm amber and a clean, persistent musky trail.
