Jasmin, virtual & virtuoso, 21, single, childless, near you, wants to get to know you!
"Paradoxe Virtual Flower" by Prada is a jasmine fragrance through and through - which actually scares me and doesn't suit me. But somehow something admirable happened here and something clicked between us...
I don't know the other two "paradoxes" or only know them minimally. This is the first detailed test in the series. And I am amazed at how powdery, wearable and subtle Prada's interpretation and combination of jasmine is here. It really smells good - across all weight classes! Jasmine is so clear, sparkling and beautifully flanked by neroli, musk and bergamot that I can smell almost no diva-like aura of the flower that I usually avoid. It remains a jasmine perfume - but very modern, summery and positive. Not at all heavy or sweaty, not fleshy or expansive, not annoying or tough. Quite the opposite. It's fun, it's classy, it's energetic, it's young. Without being too synthetic, which I had already prematurely assumed from the name. I really like it. Without completely tearing out trees. But it does its job.
Flacon: lying rather than flying
Sillage: delicate & consistent
Longevity: 7 hours and more!
Conclusion: one of the few designer "jasmines" that I like - (not too) sultry and (quite) beautiful!
