Scent

Yes, that smell is suit-wearing!

Prada L'Homme. Touted by Jeremy Fragrance as the "clean man" ; A professional, clean office or everyday scent. Sounds good, right? And one thing in advance with this recommendation from our (favorite) - YouTubers was not promised too much
Now for my opinion and story about this fragrance. About 2 months ago I ordered my first sample of Prada L'Homme here in the Souk and was immediately blown away. As the occasion of my recently passed school leaving examination so wanted, I finally asked for the opportunity to wear a suit again. In contrast to the majority of my peers (classmates), I love and loved the feeling of wearing a suit and I was happy to finally slip into it again.

Suit on, tie tied and now of course the question of the matching fragrance arose. And yes, I was really happy to have a sample of Prada L'Homme in the house. Arriving yesterday and never tested before, yet this day was to serve as an experiment. Sure, it could have backfired, but the reviews and notes made me feel (correctly) safe. So I applied 5 splashes and wow I liked the opening
For the first 2-3 minutes I still felt an alcoholic touch, but this was quickly replaced by the very dominant and characteristic iris. Beside these flowery, quite heavy notes, one can also recognize the subliminal, but very successful, background with the spice of the pepper.

The fragrance is quite linear, not in the sense of boring, but much more in the sense of a harmonious composition. With time, the fragrance becomes less obtrusive and also bearable on the skin (here it was previously a bit too much of a good thing). Furthermore, the scent in the drydown smells a bit sweeter and warmer, at least for my one; generally simply more tolerable, but also more inconspicuous
In the first 2 hours this fragrance brings a mad silage. Got 2 compliments in that time, so I'm sure the world can smell it. Besides, and I really like this very much, the scent was also perceived above average for myself during this time. This is all the more pleasing as I belong to the variety Parfumo, which after some time often cannot smell itself anymore. After the above mentioned (maximum) 2 hours, the radius in which you are perceived becomes steadily and unfortunately also quite quickly smaller. After 4 hours I only smell something very close, after about 6 hours I had to make an effort to be able to perceive something. However, one must definitely give credit to this scent that it really performs very well in the beginning.

All in all: a top fragrance! For me it fits perfectly with chic clothing, conveys a noble and valuable feeling and encourages an upright posture. With this fragrance you definitely don't have to hide yourself and simply feel good and self-confident. According to my test experience so far, it is very popular with both men and women and has never met with (strong) rejection, i.e. a very common scent
Beside the normal version the Prada L'Homme Intense has joined my collection since 2 weeks, which I also appreciate very much. If I find the time, I will review it and point out some parallels and differences. But as you can see by buying another version of this fragrance, I am definitely excited about Prada's hobbyhorse. I can only recommend to every perfume, even every perfuma, to buy a bottle of this fragrance (and also the Intense version) and test it. I would almost want to make a "blind buy recommendation" here, but I still recommend testing, because I don't want to shoulder the burden of responsibility of a bad buy induced by me.
