Prada
bergamot · bitter orange · mimosa
Prada opens on bergamot and bitter orange, soon joined by mimosa. A heart of patchouli and rose, touched with pink pepper, gives way to benzoin, sandalwood and labdanum. The whole reads as woody and amber, faintly powdery. Wear it in winter or autumn, when the trail stays close to the skin.
