Is this the fragrance that everyone is raving about?

It was an ordinary visit to Douglas, one of many since I started delving deeper into the world of fragrances. After hours of research, I kept coming across recommendations for Prada Black, which apparently was highly regarded by many.
So I seized the opportunity and reached for the bottle at my trusted Douglas.

My first impression? Is this the fragrance that everyone is raving about?
To be honest, I was disappointed. The scent struck me as unremarkable, and I quickly turned to other fragrances. At that moment, Prada Black slipped my mind as I tested my way through the shelves.

But something changed on the way home. Again and again, a scent wafted towards me, capturing my attention, a warm and simultaneously fascinating smell that simply could not be ignored. I tried to place it, but after all the perfumes I had tested, it was impossible to pinpoint exactly which one it was.

Only at home, when I sat down at the PC and leaned on my left arm, did it suddenly become clear to me what it was. The scent that had captivated me all along was indeed Prada Black, which had developed into something wonderful on my skin.
It was warm, inviting, and had a coziness about it that I had never experienced with any other perfume before.
I couldn't stop smelling it and became more and more enthusiastic. At that moment, I understood, THIS is the fragrance that everyone is raving about!
It didn't take long before I ordered it, and since then it has become one of my absolute favorite scents.
Although I have tested many perfumes, none have convinced me so quickly that I wanted to buy them immediately.

The sillage of Prada Black is not overly strong, and it is not a scent that fills an entire room, but that does not make it any less impressive. On me, it lasts about eight hours, which is truly outstanding.

I can really recommend that everyone try it at least once - perhaps it will also evoke that special feeling in you.

Well written, this one is also among my favorites 🙂
For me, the longevity and sillage improved after I let the bottle sit for a few weeks.

@Y3302 Definitely try the other fragrances from the Luna Rossa line as well. In my opinion, they're all above average :)

Thanks :)
Exactly, I felt the same way. I've had the scent for about 5 months now, and while I could barely get it to last on my skin at first, it now reaches the 8 hours I mentioned in the review.
