Prada
Paradigme
“Bergamot and geranium over benzoin — Prada's office-safe newcomer, missing the soapy Prada DNA.”
The take
What works
- ●Bergamot-musk safe daily-wear office masculine
- ●Well-blended alternative to syrupy designer trends
Trade-offs
- ●Generic — lacks any signature edge
- ●Redundant for experienced collectors
