The Infusion collection from Prada began in 2007 with Infusion d'Iris edition. The fragrances of this collection were launched as limited editions. In 2015, Prada reissued this collection and made it permanent. The re-launched included 6 fragrances: Infusion d'Iris, Infusion de Fleur d'Oranger from 2009 and Infusion de Vetiver from 2010, and three new editions Infusion d'Iris Cedre, Infusion d'Amande and Infusion d'Oeillet. Perfumer Daniela (Roche) Andrier collaborated with Miuccia Prada to create this collection of six elegant and sophisticated unisex fragrances. Each fragrance is an interpretation of natural ingredients and the contrast between traditionalism and modernity. These three new infusions are not sold in the USA, so we have brought them here for your sniffing pleasure.
Infusion d'Amande consists of bitter almond, heliotrope, tonka beans, musk and essence of anise.
REVIEWS
Fragrantica - This is not a typical gourmand fragrance, yes it has vanilla and almonds but it's not a heavy marzipan or frangipani dessert. Instead it's more of a light, fluffy almond cake, or even an almond pudding/mousse (if that's a thing - it should be!). That being said, it doesn't actually smell edible like many gourmands. This is a well blended, smooth and buttery fragrance that dries down into a woody, and musky skin scent that lasts forever on clothes. It does not have a big projection, but the intimate scent trail is addicting once noticed. The airy lemon scent adds a gentle zing whilst the woody notes add depth that prevents it being sickly sweet and cloying....I think this could be a popular fragrance in 2024. I'm obsessed.
Fragrantica - Like an expensive vanilla gelato. Elegant and simple. Like a warm hug. Perfectly unisex.
Fragrantica - Quite the little gem this one for me. A scent for every day use, unpretentious and very cosy. Smooth vanilla gelato, topped with roasted almond flakes and a drizzle of lemon syrup. Enjoyed on a beautifully constructed and comfortable ceder deck on a day with a gentle but refreshing breeze. ...What's not to like...?
Fragrantica - Gorgeous perfume! I love the combination of almond and lemon, on me this lemony breeze lasts for quite a long time. Overall on my skin the perfume lasts around 6-7 hours but on my clothes it lasts even longer.I would say it's perfectly unisex but I tend to say that about most perfumes that aren't overwhelmingly floral and not overly barber shop like. The perfume is very deliciously sweet but not sickly. I would eat it if it was a dessert.
Fragrantica - Wow wow. Love at first sniff! Almond top note is delicious and reminiscent of some of L'occitanes almond products and le petit Marseille amande. Don't really get any citrus or lemon but that doesn't matter this is a true gourmand I wish I could eat it. If you like sweet woods like Margiela's Replica 'by the fireplace' chances are you'll enjoy this. Dry down goes Woody enough so that it doesn't feel too feminine I found it lasted for hours on skin and daysss on clothes.
Fragrantica - his smells like a refined and more almond forward version of hypnotic poison which I love! It's heavy without being too cloying, mysterious and seductive. Great longevity!
Fragrantica - It was love at first sniff! It's so well blended and it's a soft, creamy and slightly powdery vanilla with a hint of woodiness from the cedar. Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful. The perfume itself is perfection,
Fragrantica - A seductive fragrance with a daring and inviting aroma. As a pleasure seeker of the world, I've had the privilege to travel widely, and one thing I learned is that every place has its own unique scent. I fell in love with this one: a delicate, yet robust scent that marries sophistication with an air of whimsy. With a fresh and captivating scent, this perfume is for the discerning woman who knows what she wants. With top notes of exhilarating citrus and luxurious floral aromas, it will definitely envelop you in a certain aura of charm and seduction.
Fragrantica - I'm in love.....again. I decided to try this yesterday as I am such a huge fan of Bois Dore. You know that feeling when you spray a scent for the first time and you instantly love it? Well, that's what happened to me. Love at first sniff which grew steadily throughout the day. A gourmand delight with strong almond, vanilla and something fruity. The notes say lemon but it's not obviously lemon. Soft and creamy - I adore this. Maybe even more than Bois Dore. I think this one has the edge.
Fragrantica - It's not a very complex scent but is a perfect balance of almond, vanilla, musk and cedar (I don't get any citrus) and it projects amazingly clean, sweet, gourmandy, creamy, woody, even a bit soapy, OMG I can't even put the words for this. I just fell in LOVE.
Fragrantica - This could be described as a more mature version of This Is Her by Zadig&Voltaire. Absolutely stunning! The opening is a very unexpected cheeky blast of citrus that doesn't last long. Still it's refreshing! The dry down is cedar almond and a soft vanilla, very well blended.The musky notes are soft too. It's like a warm sweet hug around me. After half an hour it becomes a skin scent but people near you still notice it. I love the perfumer Sidonie Lancesseur and almost all of her creations!
Fragrantica - The woody, gourmand delight with the soft, velvety sweet notes of almond and vanilla. Soft and creamy, warm and sensual! I adore this! A perfect balance of almond, vanilla, musk and cedar. I don't get any citrus. Longevity 12+ hours. Gorgeous!!!
