For her and for him

My story with the Prada perfume realm dates back many years ago, more precisely in 2007, when I tested, out of pure chance – without knowing absolutely nothing about it – , Infusion d’Iris. It was something magical. I loved it from the first moment. But I told myself that it couldn’t be true, that I would have to think about it some more. I sprayed it on my wrist, I left, I’ve smelled it again and again, and in about just ten minutes, I was back in the shop and bought it. I’ve used it often and even now it stirs some of my loveliest and pleasant memories. After this first “interaction”, I kept an eye on the brand and tested any novelty launched by Prada. The very last time? Well, quite recent. However, before I saw the new duo from Prada on the shelf, I already have read about it. I knew that when you place them one next to each other, the two perfumes literally create a circle. There are two bottles that utterly complete each other, just like a couple. The one for women is adorned in white leather, while the masculine one, in black. Ladies first, so I’ve tested first the one for women: I felt right away the exotic aroma of frangipani, then the spicy notes, and, finally, those of tuberose. And, yes, it was again love at first glance – frankly, I liked it so much that I was almost tempted to buy them both, without even testing the one for men☺.
But I did it, after all, and I was truly convinced it was going to be a pleasant surprise for my boyfriend: iris, amber, geranium, neroli and patchouli. He liked it, too (wore it every day for the last week). Not to mention that I was somehow absolved of any sense of guilt: I didn’t just buy something for myself, right?
