Infusion d'Iris by Prada

eilismaireg

I've come to the conclusion that Prada are laughing up their gold-lined sleeves at us all. My husband thinks this stuff smells of the perming lotion his mum used in the 80's - I got boot polish and cheap mens aftershave. Infusion does kind of give the impression of lightness but these frags are so dilute they just disappear before there's any development. I scrubbed the L'Eau Ambree from my left wrist and this one from my right and sprayed myself with my lovely and very cheap, Balmain Ivoire.

When I heard Prada, i do not expect anything special. And yes, i can't find anything that make me want to buy a bottle of this.
The perfume start with fresh soapy smell, then turn a fresh floral. it a great scent for office wear, but nothing sexy. Just fresh and professional. Not my type, I'm more into biting scent.
However, i do have a miniature bottle of this perfume. I wear it when i need some fresh feeling. great to be wear after you step out from bath. Works well with white clothes, it will enhance your appearance. If white is your image color, soapy and fresh is your type, this could be your signature.

A very fresh fragrance. I personally find it long lasting. After 4 to 6 hours, just when you think its all over a smell of beautiful incense arises, which I find devine. Perfect for any season. Smells equally good on men, gave a colleague a few sprays and he loved it and actually purchased a bottle.

I find all Prada fragrances to be very strong and long lasting and classy. Still I cannot wear them. They are too loud for my taste. I love infusion d'iris' bottle and tried it before and didn't quite like it. Tried it again, very dry, powdery and interesting in top notes but in the drydown its exactly like knezoflower on my skin which unfortunately I cannot stand. So as much as I like to wear this fragrance for many reasons, I simply can't. I do respect it still. Very elegant... could be just perfect for causual/office wear... still recommended to others...

My mother - who is a huge fan of Prada fragrances - bought this for me as a gift. Unfortunately I've yet to meet a Prada perfume I like. This is the antithesis of my taste; where i like spicy, musky, woody, fruity, vanilla scents, this is clean and sparse and green. To me it smells like citrusy fabric softener on first spray, a nothing, nowhere, nobody of a fragrance. I also find it slightly overpowering at first, but it doesn't appear to have exceptional staying power. I must admit, the more times I've tried it I've noticed it does develop into a nutty, creamy frangrance during the dry down but I'm not sure i can cope with the initial blast. In any case, it's inoffensive enough that I should be able to battle through with is as a daytime fragrance.

I Love D Iris!Its very light and powdery.It reminds me of Shalimar without the lemon note.Very soft and pretty.

The incense in this perfume brings back memories of elementary school: Carmen was my first grade teacher. She was an old and proud woman, with high expectations. Her walk and head posture screamed "distinction please"!

However the iris and mandarin notes are light and very comforting, like Carmen in her happier days.

Unlike many of my classmates, I loved professor Carmen. That's why I almost feel guilty for loving Infusion d'Iris.

Smells like their bags. They are not good with perfumes. Cheap, light, un-smellable, un-buyable.

Mellushka

Infusion D'iris...

An infusion is used with herbs which dissolve readily in water, or release their active ingredients easily in oil.
And an Iris can be anything from a flower, a colour, even a name...

So what makes this blend of notes "dissolve" into each other with several components of "anything" so special?

It's earthy, it's calming, dynamic, playful, positive, full of fun and high spirits, enchanting, carefree, it can arouse your emotions, it's like twirling in a circle in a garden filled with Iris, and it may even be a little flirtatious.

A magnificent blend of Iris and incense which spectacularly calms the soul. It is a 'hippy-child' scent. A scent which will last through the years, and would have been conjured in the 60's if given the chance, yet I am happy it also lasts long on the skin, 60 hours you could say ;)
(literally speaking, 6 hours is pretty good silage for me, sometimes it's longer)

Crisp white shirt, or, feminine silk dress, wispy powdery finish, clean, smooth, yet oh-so-earth-child-bare-minimum sexy.

Infusion D'iris doesn't try hard to impress, it does it with ease, and strait to the point, D'Iris makes it's own statement, "this is who I am, take me or leave me..."
I will definitely be taking you, the 200ml you ;)

Love at first glance! Or sniff may be a more correct expression, but I also fell in love with the classy box and bottle.

Infusion d'Iris is a mild, soft and refreshing fragrance perfect for daytime wear. In the morning, the top wakes you up with refreshing citrusy notes, during the day the heart comforts your senses with sweet powdery notes of iris, cedar, vetiver. In the evening, you will still have a trace of incense and benzoin on your wrist.

It's a quiet scent, but I always get compliments wearing it. If you think it's too quiet you can layer it with the body lotion which makes in total both richer and more longlasting.

The only drawback is that Infusion d'Iris is really popular and very easily recognized. You don't feel very unique wearing it these days. But if you love it, who cares? :)

I have worn Infusion d'Iris so much that I no longer wear it very often, but I'm still in love with it and enjoy it when I do.

Berith

When I sprayed it on it was nice but strong. Later on I could smell some musk en light clean notes, but the smell does not stay on long.
I don't think I could buy such a fragrance.

twinklestar.pa

I greatly enjoyed the reviews above, especially from SedNonSatiata and Miss_Nightingale. I purchased a tiny bottle online, and I've tried it once. It had great staying power, and seemed to grow stronger over time. It seemed like a genteel fragrance. Romantic. It's so refined that I'm not sure it's "me." Will work with it.

I love Fragrantica. It's so much fun to read others' ideas. I'm surrounded by males at home, and a dip into the ocean of fragrances is welcome.

Persephone

It is so light and delicate that I have to spray A LOT to try to appreciate. Maybe that's why it comes in such a huge bottle, but even that doesn't do justice for Infusion. Iris is a very expensive ingredient and I've read that there's no actual natural iris root in this juice, it's a chemical composition. I'd say this is the best Prada perfume so far, it stays very close to the skin, like a very light March breeze and disappoints just the same. You catch a whiff of it and think that May is tomorrow, but well no, there's still April in between. I think the initial idea of this composition was very good, but Prada Infusion D'Iris is rather a bold name for this fragrance - there is no iris, it's a bland woody fine linen softener. This is for someone who prefers shy fragrances or doesn't wear them at all. "Shy" for me still must deliver it's essence, like say Apres L'Ondee.
Update: I finally found a similar idea, but with an excellent implementation. I'll be saving my money for Chanels' 28 La Pausa, which is a true woody iris.

marinadinatata

After my first Prada perfume experience, this time, i tried first on my skin, then went for a coffee,it really smelled like a cheap floral-nothing special-out of a little old shop cologne ...OHHH Prada!!!! you really dont want me to be a fun of yours!!!

kastehelmi

I am not generally a fan of the iris note, because it is usually so powdery in a classical way-and let's face it-some powder is nice sometimes-but I am a modern woman, and I only like a classic scent if it's so well done, so beautiful, that it extends beyond its time, over the rim of its metaphorical glass with deserving to be appreciated by a youth of an era completely removed and disconnected from the time of the classic.

So far, the powdery waters of iris and violet that I have experienced from ages past haven't done anything for me, feeling neither clean enough, garden-fresh enough, nor sensual enough that I would choose to wear it over a well-balanced and very modern agreeable scent. Is it a crime to just want to smell nice, more so than have good tastes?
I think my tastes are great, if I smell nice, but I digress. Infusion d'iris is lovely because it is fresh-and true to the scent of iris. Iris may not be my favorite flower, but it is a beautiful one-beautiful and scented with individualism-crisp, and clean.
This is slightly sharp, but it stays within the boundary of acceptably soapy. It is barely soapy-very iris-y, and the citric notes are thankfully not sweet.
The dry down is incense-y without being smoky, resiny without being too much, and overall the composition manages not to be too green either.
I quite like this, and if I were financially secure, I would buy a bottle of this an keep it in my purse.I have a large sample that I will definitely use up, probably fairly quickly. I liked the smell of Prada by Prada on my friend, but I am pretty much allergic to patchouli, and I don't remember liking it as much as this. If you like oriental woody compositions, and appreciate refined lighter scents that manage to be beautiful without relying on a sexy sillage, you will love this one.

jellybeantree

I hated this perfume when it first came out. When I smelt it on the card I said to myself ' I don't want to smell like fresh laundry!' Then I tried it on my skin and it is so intersting, at first it is very woody on my skin but after it becomes sweet and incense comes through with the iris. Just ordered a bottle, can't wait.

Trvevil

Infusion d'Iris is not very interesting smelling from the bottle, but on skin it turns comfortable, peaceful and nice.

It's quite light and don't last very long.

Anyway it smells casual and unoffensive- this is kind of scent that can be worn as second skin- in every occasions.

On my skin it's very delicate yet was there- I could separate orange blossom and I think iris itself with benzoin.

Very nice, but I like Prada Amber more.

truffles

I sprayed a bit of this on my hand today. Can't decide if I like it or not but suspect I wouldn't be able to wear it. It smells a little bit like Moschino's Cheap and Chic to me.

SedNonSatiata

Iris root (orris)is one of the oldest and costliest materials in perfumery, found in hundreds of fragrances because it adds depth and tenacity.

Fortunately for iris-lovers like me, more and more fragrances are featuring iris as a primary note, blending it just enough to shape iris's personality. Hence, the soothing l'Heure Exquise, the gently swooning Iris Poudre, the playful Iris Ganache , the imposing Iris Silver Mist, the confident Hiris, and the resfreshing Infusion d'Iiris.

What gives Infusion d'iris its distinctive character is neroli, which adds the freshness of citrus with no bitter, sweet or foody accord. Elegant, clean, light, yet assertive, Infusion d'Iris has a simple but long-lasting development, with cedar breaking though in the deep dry down.

Iris is a love-it-or-hate-it material. If you love it, try this gem.

clairdelune

Infusion of Iris, in my opinion, might be better named, Infusion of Heaven. This little bottle of green juice is some of the most heavenly stuff I've ever worn. It's beautifully fresh and clean smelling, but also extremely refined and elegant. It's a lady's, not girl's perfume but could still be worn by anyone from age 20 to 70 - it's that timeless--that beautiful. I predict this will be one for the ages and will come up again and again with other iconic scents like Mitsouko and Chanel #5. Prada got it exactly right. Well done!

This is it for me. This is everything I want in a fragrance for all occasions. On me, the iris gives it a crisp, clean feel in the summer and a cozy feeling in the winter. I like how it makes me smell like I just got out of the shower, only better. It works for all occasions: from the office, to a night out, to a night in (bed :) Definitely one I will always have a bottle of. It is timeless and ageless. One can wear it if they are a teenager or a more "mature" woman. I have been looking for a signature fragrance that my children will associate with me the way I associate L'Air du Temps with my mother. This is it. This is the lovliest iris I have ever encountered, its creamy, its warm, it envelops you with soft powdery lightly spiced woodsiness, like a cashmere blanket. Seriously divine!

lucy xie

not for young girls. so it is not for me. the only prada perfume which i love a lot is prada tendre.

teedee

truly lovely fragrance. soft but sophisticated. i adore the beautiful woody, powdery with hint of incense in the base.

If i were to spray this on my skin, it doesnt last that long...4-5 hours. But today, i discovered that if i just spray lightly on my clothes, it does last very long. up to now, more than 14 hours since this morning when i sprayed it. i just hang my shirt and everytime i pass by, the soft scent still lingers... lovely...

mandashell

Another one that I am glad I tested before buying. The scent is okay but nothing I would really spend money on as a perfume especially as expensive as this one is. It is a little citrusy but strong on the incense and smells very clean. I was so exited to test it when I got to the mall but when the woman sprayed it on the card my face said it all. I politely put the card down and stepped away from the counter. LOL! I can't see myself wearing this at all. NEXT! o.0

Aalia

The citrus opening comes on strong.
Next, there is a grassy feeling, a green sensation. Then comes the violets ? Are there violets in here? Seems to be pure violets... and the iris wich is light or non existent. I am enjoying the neroli, incense, benzoin, and cedar combo. The inscense isn't extremely smokey. This is definetely a woody scent, I imagine any man or woman wearing this. It reminds me a bit of the Aqua Allegoria line, by Guerlain, but with no sweetness!

As Joy

I usually don't wear perfume if the temperature's high, because then perfume, even good scents, start to disturb me. In other words, the heat is enough, I don't need anything more to "worry" about.

However, Infusion D'Iris is so refined and light that I often wear it even then, when there is no other perfume that I could think about wearing in the summertime. It's interesting to read different reviews about it, because there is so much similar to my own opinion about Iris.

My sister says it's an old-lady perfume, which I completely understand. But somehow still it doesn't bother me at all, even if it did smell like a 70-year-old lady.

Every time I wear it, I picture the same image in my mind. The image of a hot summer day by the Mediterranean, maybe in Greece or Italy, or Sicily, for instance. When my skin is warm, even a bit sweaty because of the warm weather, this perfume reminds me of the smell of different fir trees in the forest. The smell of conifers, when it's so warm even the trees are sweating. I don't mean it's overtly green, in fact, I wouldn't say that at all. The iris makes it so soft.

Kterhark

This is a pleasant enough fragrance, but the reviewers are right when they say it doesn't last long. Easily a nice daytime scent for warm weather. I could say this is one I would consider buying, but because the staying power is so short I forget I'm wearing it, and therefore, forget that I want it.

pimentosugars

Mysterious at the beginning, Infusion d'Iris completely baffled me with a creamy woody incense top that I couldn't identify at all, but rather liked. And then. And then...

*sigh* violets. De-toxed and softened in a mist of iris and benzoin, the galbanum becoming more apparent with time, alongside a clean, somewhat soapy note. I detest violets, but this is a very elegant use of them. It proves that 'old lady' scents can be lovely. In my minds eye, I can see the old lady this would suit; silver haired and subtle with luminous eyes, all fragility and music, the kind of lady who loves ballet, plays piano, wears silk gloves, paints watercolours, wanders in the wet garden and remembers Provence in the summer and Paris in the rain. Beautiful but...

The violet horror means I must scrub this off; my head starts to throb at even this soft and sophisticated version of the purple peril. I am impressed with its beauty and balance, but it really doesn't suit my skin chemistry at all.

lillybee

Green, aromatic and slightly masculine first (would work well on men too) then mellows into an refreshing and gentle white floral with a woody base similar to Le Baiser du Dragon from Cartier. The only downsides are the poor staying power on me and the (unjustified) high price. If you're looking for a stronger fragrance in a similar oriental woody vein, I suggest you try Le Baiser du Dragon Eau de Toilette which is a lot woodier but has great staying power.

Adriana_87

One of the best ever!This fragrance works great on me from the start to the end!I feel so goodsmelling and clean with this one.A masterpiece!!

essija

I must say You Must let this fragrance Grow on you! It takes time for it to develop on my skin, but when it does, It is the most heavenly, slightly floral, soapy/cleanliness smell I have ever rubbed my nose on. I love this and Yes You do have to wear a lot of it, I think that is why the bottles are so huge! They intended 20 spritzes a day. Love it! Give it enough time, don't write it off. took hours to develop on my skin.. again Love it..

woodlandwalk

I love this perfume so much I spray it on at home for all kinds of reasons; to relax, to cheer myself up, to feel sensual. It's intimate in a different way - not seductive or cloying. I suspect some men might find it a little old fashioned and it does have a whiff of yesteryear.

I love the smell of fragrant irises in real life - it's a fresh but soft and complex aroma - really dreamy. This scent captures it, but earths it with orris root and resins. It smells incensey, heady - and reminds me of a walk I take in the Scottish Highlands in June - up a fir lined river valley when the rhodedendrons are blooming.

My only observation would be that this isn't particularly sexy - one for romance rather than seduction - not a bad thing at all!

litldove7

I thoroughly enjoyed trying this scent at the counter. It had caught my eye. It's a fresh, clean scent with a hint of sweetness (which I look for in many scents nowadays). It's not over the top fresh and clean like some other summer fragrances (which I think is because of the iris notes), but I would definitely wear it during the summer. I can sense the citric flavor of the perfume, but what I think makes it really lovely are the incense and cedar. When I think of incense, I think smokey, but it wasn't THAT kind of smokey to me. It just had a sexy flavor to it BECAUSE of the incense. It was still bright, just not overly bright. I don't think of this as a wake-me-up scent, but it definitely picks-me-up because of it's sheer brightness and somewhat warm disposition. I think it's a nice relaxing fragrance. More than just "pretty" but not as sexy as I would have expected from an oriental woody. It's perfect for daytime and nighttime wear IMHO. I definitely want my own bottle.

perfumes_addict

i wouldn't call this perfume oriental and woody... it's more like a fresh one but without any aquatic notes. just powdery, clean and modern. it is just a bit masculine if you ask me but this is what i like about it. it reminds me somehow of bvlgari blu notte.

Gemini

My brand new love! So elegant, pure, soapy&powdery. It is a really sophisticated fragrance, I would like to own a big bottle of that!

snobuni77

Like a gentle spring breeze floating through an open window this is a very mild.It relaxes me.....Maybe it is because it also resembles a the scent of a baby.

The notes smell very pure to me.
I get the Mandarin, Orange & Benzion scents upon applying it I would say it is more of an "Orange Zest" I smell.You know, when you grate the skin of an orange to add to a recipe.

Well that fades away within the first 5 minutes & then it relaxes into a very soft baby like scent....a freshly bathed baby.

I also sense the scent of petroleum in this.....I'm not exactly sure what note it is but I actually like it a lot.
It makes me feel that I just applied oil to my skin. I even had to touch the area to make sure it wasn't greasy...weird I know?

The Cedar is very light as well as the other notes but to me that's the note that takes it away from it's infant delicacy & makes it more womanly & grown up.

It is a great spring/summer scent in it's lightness & it would be great for a new mom or nurse.Its for anyone who is around sensitive people or is sensitive themselves regarding scents.

It is the perfect perfume as it is well done & adult all while being very delicate & feminine.

flowers&spice

I am in love with this scent. I usually go for a little deeper, warmer scent, and was utterly surprised to fall for this. I think of it more as a floral scent with it's fresh, clean and flowery start. It does develop a bit of a woodsy base, but it's all so fresh, refined and delicate that I find myself wishing to reapply throughout the day. The staying power is, sadly, not what I wish it was for this gorgeous scent. If I could find one of the large bottles at a reasonable price I would be a very happy girl indeed as I spritzed all day long! Really beautiful, and makes me feel refined, cared for, classic and clean.

guest_lotusleaf

totally agree with Urban Skies! After 30 minutes of spritzing it.... I drove home and to check my kids' shampoo because I was sure it was the same scent. And it's not at all. I even checked the other brands to see if another baby shampoo - nope... no match. Something really reminds me of baby smell here.

ktv0926

I'm not a fan of iris, but in Infusion d'Iris I like it. It is calm and tender and slightly greenish, fresh and yeh - clean. Perfect for everyday.

megannsmom

Very nice, clean scent. Like very expensive soap at first, then like clean skin warmed by the sun. Perfect scent for everyday. FBW in my opinion!

Mals86

Lovely pale, cool iris, which eventually dries down to a lightly spicy incense scent. Very pleasant, light, and business-appropriate.

I have a mini but am not tempted to purchase a larger amount.

mmizy

at first its comes of as nothing special even soapy but the drydown is beautiful. Its clean with a touch of green and powder. Like nothing I have...must add it to my collection. You have to test it...it smells better on skin.

veronique

Soapy and powdery in top notes, but the dry down is really interesting with soft incense and wood notes.
Not for everyone.

Bouquet

Clean, fresh/soapy, crisp, feminine, modern, classic, floral (but not your great aunt's floral), chic, elegant, versatile and sexy in the way that emanates from a lady who is focused and competent. (Sometimes I think of PIdI as my "Mary Poppins" scent, as I'l bet that she would use it.)
You could wear it to work, on the weekend, with friends and family, or for an evening out. Best for spring or fall weather.

You have to layer it with the body lotion to make it last more than a couple of hours on your skin. So, stash a mini bottle of the scent in your bag. However, I've discovered it lasts much longer on fabrics-- so you can spray a scarf with it, too.

tessture

One of my all-time favorites. Versatile, clean and fresh without aquatic notes, slightly incense-y, light. I get compliments on this one and it wears well in winter or summer. I have no trouble with lasting power like others have reported.

a bit vintage

Oh my, love, love, love. So many fragrances give me a headache, but this...it has been on my wish list mainly out of curiosity because of a magazine's scented strip, and reading great reviews. Miss Nightingale - your beautiful review set me in motion to purchase this. I feel as though I could bathe in a vat of this stuff! It has a perfect softly sexy, sophisticated, urban appeal. My new love!

guest_guest_guest

Very fresh and crisp frag, woodsy n flowery at da same time.
So bad it doesn't last too long (2-3 hrs). All2gether this is a very lovely feminine composition and a very interesting interpretation of iris.
Highly recommended for spring time.
All the Prada fragrances just rulzzzz :)

barbiot35

The name Infusion d'Iris was very exciting when I first saw its advertisement. But the fragrance isn't a onique one; it has very common notes that aren't harmonic:( And has NO staying power(not poor).

November

It's so funny reading all the comments. I wear this parfume on a daily basis, from the 1st time I tried it I know that this is my scent!It is clean, warm, edgy, sophisticated a bit musky and yet comfy. It is so me!

guiwings

WOW! I finally tried INfusion d'iris. I'm wearing it right now. I just can say: where have you been all my life?
It's fresh but yet warm. Floral, but not floral sick.
It´s magical.

*Thank you Boggi

JZ

it's not uniqe or suprising when i smell it for thr 1st time, but after some time, it makes me feel so...comfortable. it's not like a scent of perfum, smell expensive.

Kama

I love this perfume! I have falled in love with them in the summer and had to buy them.
In fact they smell similar to Givenchy III... that I also used to have and love... veru orginal, classic, and woody/fresh smell.

FANNY

i sprayed it today.. although it has a pleasant smell i didn't like it.. it smells too chemical plus it reminds me a lot of the JOHNSON's Baby SHAMPOO Smell!!

alicektn

This fragrance reminds me of a woman's bedroom in the country, in a sunny spring or summer day with open windows.

Clean, powdery, citrusy and earthy. Carefree and feminine. My skin doesn't copliment too much the drydown, which is pure cedar on me, but still it is pleasant.
--------------------------
EDIT
-----
Something must have happened with my chemistry, cos these days it transforms into one of the most beautiful undescribable scents. Very incense-y, resinous, woody and flowery. Oh my god. I really fell head over heels with it after that discovery.

It took a year to notice, but it's marvelous. A masterpiece.

tessture

Clean, only slightly floral, crisp wood, resinous benzoin. I get compliments with this one and it's come to be my daily scent. More suited for summer, it can still be worn anytime. Very light and lovely. Noticeable without being intrusive.

Miss_Nightingale

I spent the summer wrapped in a giddy haze of this gorgeous new scent from Prada. I was lucky enough to buy a whopping great 200ml sized bottle for a bargain price in a tester sale at work (I work in a designer department store here in the UK) so felt free to spray with complete abandon.

The overall impression of this scent is cooling, calming even, yet curiously uplifting. Whenever I needed a "boost" I would spritz a little more on & revel in my own fragrant cocoon; but let me break down the layers for you to give you a better idea of how this fragrance worked for me:

First of all there is a dry, slightly woodsy lemon-tinged mandarin that mellows into cedar (not too sharp, though, as some cedars can be) which is beautifully tempered with the powdery iris. This then settles down to a very long lasting (on me, anyway) white musky harmony of bone dry florals, woods and vetiver.

For me, this is a modern classic. It is bottled Class & Sophistication, but with a fun, carefree edge that prevents it from being too much of a stuffed shirt. There is nothing overtly showy here, just effortlessly sexy in an Audrey Hepburn wearing a man's slightly rumpled white shirt kind of a way.

Interestingly, I had this pegged as a Definitely Summer Only perfume, but the other day, whilst having an "I can't think what I want to smell of today!" moment, I reached for my (now sadly depleted) bottle of Infusion D'Iris... With snow on the ground and air so cold it made you gasp, this somehow just WORKED. It made a transition from summer to Winter, and this for a gal who would only normally wear ambers and deep, dark civets for the winter!

I urge you to give this a try.

BethAshley

I bought this fragrance on impulse (the bottle is so chic!) and was very surprised to see that it was introduced in 2007. This perfume is a great break from the sweet/fruity/candy scents that have been taking over the stores.

Infusion d'Iris nods to classic perfumes with its powdery florals but manages to avoid being old-fashioned by intertwining them with soapy and fresh ceader notes.

I find it to be quietly refined and perfect for the office. Although it is a delicate fragrance hints of it are still on my skin by the end of the work day.

Malegria

From the very beginning I liked it! The fresh opening is very unique and elegant - and if you like fleur d`orange, it is the most delicate and sensual fleur d`orange ever!I kept on smelling my wrist, and then I started to feel Her Majesty the Iris, which is for sure one of the purest I tried.I was in total paradise for about 3 hours, and guess what? The base smells very much alike with Flower Kenzo Orjental.May be a little more fresh - but definitely very close.
I would buy it just for the opening, it`s delightful!

mymlan

I love this one! I really enjoy how the EdP developes with my body scent and all different stages it passes. The scent stays quite long on me but because I'm addicted to all stages I need to put some more on later in the day. Layering it with the body lotion is also recommended for better sillage and lonevity. This is primary a day fragrance for me, but it works well in the evenings as well. Try it!

Aysu

When you first smell this fragrance, you feel that it is a unisex one, typical light, soapy, a little citrusy unisex.. I was surprised to hear that it is for women. But after it starts to dry down, it takes maybe more than 3-4 different forms and suprises me by being a complex scent although it does not look like that (considering the notes) It lasted at least more than 8-9 hours on me (agree with previous comments) and everybody that smelled my wrist fell in love with this fragrance.. Not a very heady fragrance like the original Prada, but if you want something clean and fresh but a trendy one, and if you want that fresh smell last for hours on your skin, then you should choose this one..

Boggi

Have to add: some people look at this as a summer scent. I have not tried it in the summer, but I have experienced that it turns just georgous outside in the late fall cold weather.

amanda

i love prada, but not this one, it was too woody, it smelled like an old decayed piece of wood for me,

Boggi

I tried it on this morning in a boutique. So far it has lasted on my skin for eight hours and it has been a wonderful time. Its get creamier every hour. The smell reminds me a little of a fig fragrance, but cleaner. Like Urban Skies I get some unclear childhood memories, but I dont know what it is.
This is a must-have to me.

I also agree with Mariotgomez that this will fit very good for a man as well.

kanoodle7

I love this perfume. From the sexy scent to the gorgeous bottle. Wonderful addition to my collection. Lasted 8 plus hours, and seemed to get better as the night wore on.

Vincenzina

I have a sensitive nose so i can't stand the havy perfumes.This one is light,smell like clean with a woody undertone.Very nice!!

Marianne

This fragrance reminds me of some kind of soap of my childhood. Therefore, I had to have it immediately. It is a good combination of powdery and soapy notes, very elegant and clean. In my opinion, this is the female equivalent for Prada pour homme.

Urban Skies

I can definitely understand why this fragrance wouldn't work on everyone, but it totally captivates me. It brings up such positive childhood memories of gardens after the rain. I wasn't sure whether I liked it at first because it has an unusual, medicinal soapiness (maybe Johnson's Baby Shampoo??), but now I'm completely obsessed with it. I recently smelled someone else wearing it and for a moment felt a ridiculous pang of jealousy. That's MINE! (Yikes) :) The bottle is the epitome of understated, dignified elegance. I would have bought it for the bottle alone, as that's what initially attracted me to it. There's a vintage apothecary vibe about this perfume and its bottle which I completely adore.

Aeternitas

I bought Prada Milano for my mother, which I had originally planned on buying for myself because I loved it so much. It has such a modern, classic, and expensive feel to it! We both love it. It does remind me of Milano, the busy city full of fashion and trendy, modern women with classic taste you may find in the city, which I travel to often. It comes off a little strong when you first spray it, but once it settles, it's a perfect woody, nearly traditional scent. Totally fine and wearable for everyday!

To my disappointment, this fragrance didn't last for more than two hours. What I was left with was a a soapy and woody base - the most tenacious notes. The lack of heavy base notes such as the ones used in Prada Eau de Parfum for Her makes Infusion d'Iris very light and delicate but unfortunately not long-lasting.

Although this fragrance is marketed toward women, I enjoy wearing it. It has such a clean, crisp & modern scent that anyone can wear it. I get complements from both men & women. I am a person who has a pasion for fragrances. So when I came across this scent, I had to add it to my collection.
