Adding to the positive reviews, it’s a good perfume for those who prefer soft scents that still make an impression. I like it; it smells fresh and clean, not like detergent. It’s absolutely that: iris paired with well-balanced notes, refined, without being penetrating. Perfect, user-friendly. I love it.
As YouTuber Kari Dil says, this perfume could never go wrong on anyone. Subtle, linear scent with a super-clean iris, slightly incense-like, more woody as it dries, and lightly resinous. I love it, even though I’m usually a bombastic wearer… But it’s perfect when you want to give your olfactory system a break. It’s the fragrance I’ve repurchased the most, about 5 times… a true chameleon. Clean, yes, but I swear it doesn’t smell like soap, which is probably why I like it and find it unique. Surprisingly, it has good longevity, even if the sillage is short, but it’s fine as is. I don’t ask for more because I understand its purpose. Discreet but present. Worth the price. I love the bottle. I remember the first time I tried it, September 18, 2008, in Andorra la Vella; I was 18 and took it without thinking. I recall it took at least a year for it to appear in stores in my city, and I remember that my friends, who at the time wore Light Blue or Carolina Herrera, didn’t like it at all, but I was drooling… over my Prada infusion. Now times are different.
I bought it blind and I love it. My 6-year-old daughter asks me to wear it before bed; the first time she smelled it, she said it gave her “sleepiness.” I’d say it’s very relaxing. A rich fragrance that I hope they don’t discontinue.
A delicate, feminine, and soft perfume, very powdery. Rich; on my skin, the white floral notes dominate and the iris is very noticeable. But it’s not powdery to the point of being overwhelming. It’s very well balanced. A beautiful perfume.
As the name suggests, it’s an infusion of iris but soft, nothing overwhelming. A wearable floral for everyday life, with good sillage and medium longevity. Perfect for sunny spring mornings.
A friendly fragrance because no one should dislike it. It’s light, soft, tender, and silky… imagine a fairy skipping through the clouds while her delicate feet brush against iris petals.
A lovely, romantic, and feminine fragrance. At first, you notice the orange and tangerine, then a sweetened, powdery iris unfolds. The sillage is weak, but it’s a pleasure to smell it on the arm, to feel it, to enjoy it. I consider it perfect for a date when there’s already trust and you can stay close to savor the scent.
A clean, powdery classic. No one handles iris better than Prada. Absolutely elegant, ideal for formal events and work. Wearable all year, though I reserve it for spring and summer. A perfumery classic, Prada’s most famous fragrance for women.
Sweet and powdery Iris, a recognizable classic. It smells clean and classy, but after trying several decants, I don’t feel it’s for me. The trail is moderate and lasts 5-6 hours. I’m surprised many people compare it to Chanel 19 Poudrée, which I adore, because to me, it only shares the powdery touch. Chanel is less sweet and has that delicious green note that I love. Scent: 6/10, Longevity: 5.5/10, Sillage: 7/10, Value: 5/10, Versatility: 8/10, Packaging: 8/10. Would I buy it again? No.
Delicious, refined, and elegant Iris—unisex by definition. It’s that scent that never fails, easy to wear in any season. The longevity and projection aren’t beastly, but how refined and tasteful it is… an absolute pleasure. If you’re thinking of buying it blind, go for it; you won’t be disappointed.
Mmmmmm, Mmmmmm, and Mmmmmm, as @Taurien said: it smells clean and classy, it tastes good, ideal for those moments, you know, like enjoying a good afternoon tea.
Could anyone tell me if this is a more youthful perfume? I judge based on YouTube reviews and love reading comments here; most say it’s very pleasant. I don’t know what iris smells like, but from what I read, it seems like a reserved perfume, my style. However, I’d like to know if it’s worth ordering a decant (they don’t sell them that way in my country) to see what it’s like. Thanks.
I prefer the 2015 formulation because it doesn’t have frankincense and feels fresher to me. It’s my comfort option for staying at home. Wearing it simply relaxes me, but for now, I don’t see myself going out with it because it doesn’t quite fit my vibe.
Elianaod, it’s the iris and violet that give the powdery scent. It’s a soft and clean perfume. I don’t think it bothers anyone. If you like soft, powdery, personal scents with a warm base, you’ll love it. It’s unisex.
Like most, I’ve heard about the similarity to Chanel No. 19 Poudré, so here’s my take on both. On paper, the notes seem similar, but in reality, the differences are striking: Chanel comes out greener and more astringent, while Prada is tender, slightly sweet, and creamy. The galbanum in Chanel gives that lasting green character; in Prada, it’s a “pastel green,” less intense and more gentle. The iris, the star of both, gives that powdery touch. The other flowers get overshadowed. Both release a beautiful vetiver when dry, though I feel it more in Prada, while Chanel ends up more soapy. The sweetness makes the green wearable. Maybe Prada is a bit sweeter, but it’s not a sweet floral. In projection, Chanel is more imposing at first, but as they dry down, both are very similar, with excellent longevity (more than 8 hours) but low projection, almost skin scent. On me, both evoke peace, and I choose them interchangeably; they are works of art. For lovers of green and bold scents, go for Poudré; if you don’t like green, choose Infusion d’Iris. Both have a powdery character, so enjoying those aromas is a must.
I hate it… it smells like an over-70-year-old person, a vintage perfume that’s nothing new.
I loved this perfume; I think everything has already been said. I’ll just add that this version was limited, no longer sold, and they relaunched it in 2015 reformulated. I realized I bought the new 2015 version, the only one available now. I went years without buying it and didn’t know they had changed it, what a disaster! I can’t find the bergamot, vetiver, galbanum, or frankincense that made it rich, complex, and with that intensity I loved so much. The current version is boring, bland, cheesy, and even rancid. I don’t understand why they destroyed a 2008 Fifi Award winner; now it’s just a cologne, performs terribly, has no trail, and lasts less than two hours. It doesn’t matter if you shower with it, you get nothing out of it. I don’t get the hype because it’s “a Prada” and because the 2007 version was nice; otherwise, it would have gone unnoticed. It has nothing elegant about it, it’s for staying at home or walking the dog. It lacks charm, personality, and bite. I can’t see myself dressed up with this; it doesn’t complement me. The name fits perfectly: Iris Infusion, it’s just that, a watery infusion sweetened with neroli and mandarin. Even if I carried the bottle to reapply every half hour, I wouldn’t gain any presence. I prefer versions like the 2007, elegant and with presence, like Jacomo’s Silences or Chanel n°19 Poudré. This is just water… what a rip-off! I feel like I wasted my money. When a perfume I like gets discontinued or reformulated, there’s no way brands stay put anymore; now they just release flankers to kill them off in four days, and I understand that less and less.
For women: one of my favorites among my 150 perfumes, ranking alongside brands like Clive Christian or Byredo. It’s clean with a talc-like creaminess that doesn’t irritate, subtle and precious. Ideal for spring, summer, or wearing at home all year; it’s rare I don’t put it on after a shower. It doesn’t project much or leave a trail, but it doesn’t seek attention either. The perfect perfume for aromatherapy. Nothing sensual, sexual, or mysterious… but unique for its natural ingredients and for working with iris like no one else. It would definitely be in my top three signature scents.
Has anyone tried Victorio & Lucchino’s Essential Waters: Sweet Calm? The drydown is identical, and they cost 250ml for 15 pesos.
Elegant and beautiful scent, it brings back memories of the 40s with those fitted dresses, corsets, powder, and white wigs. I really like this perfume.
A perfume with very limited sillage and scarce longevity. To smell it, you have to put your nose right against the skin. From the start, it smells like “after a visit to the theater”: you take off the cloak and the dress, and that glamour and classy venue scent remains, but what’s left here… by no means deserves its price.
On my skin, it smells powdery with a strong opening of iris and mandarin. As it dries, there’s a smoky and waxy note, but not the typical burnt smell, rather a subtle incense like the smoke from a diffuser. Then the green notes stand out: galbanum, vetiver, and cedar. Curiously, it lasted more than 7 hours with bursts of projection. I consider it a feminine unisex scent to wear as a signature, adaptable to informal or formal situations due to its sober elegance. Given its resemblance to Chanel 19 (though this one is rougher), I think it shines in the shoulder seasons, although it works in winter and summer too. Even though it’s not my style, I found it gorgeous: I never thought the combination of incense and juniper could be so soothing, nor that a perfume could be both feminine and masculine at the same time. I was surprised, so I highly recommend trying it. Pleasantness: 10/10, Interesting: 10/10, Versatile: 8/10, Original: 8/10.
I smelled it on a relative this summer in Madrid and was left with a wonderful impression. It smelled clean without being childish; the wood settled in giving it an elegant touch for everyday wear, which I loved after years without fragrances that didn’t smell like a party. It doesn’t last long, maybe two hours, but enough for me. I, being from the north, bought it months later, obsessed. Here, after an hour, it smells green, mossy, and rainy, so much so it can be dizzying with the humidity. I don’t know if perfumes change based on the climate zone, but up here in the north, it’s impossible to wear, at least in autumn and winter.
It really smells clean. On my skin, it’s powdery with a base of incense, lasting about 3 hours. I must understand it’s for intimate and relaxed moments, where you don’t want to project or steal glances, but keep it private and enjoy it just for yourself.
I used it sparingly and loved it, but I had to stop because it didn’t match my personality, just like with others that fascinated me (Prada Candy, Light Blue, Amarige…) but eventually left my list. They become time capsules, moments that now seem impossible to relive. I remember it as original, nothing I had smelled before. It has a nostalgic, sleepy, luminous, and tender point, like a white glow with that radiant, light iris. It brings to mind protagonists from Burne-Jones or Rossetti paintings, modernized. An intimate, clean, and discreet pleasure. For me, it’s a discovery, very beautiful. I’d love to try it again for a couple of days.
Alongside Teint de Neige by Lorenzo Villoresi, it’s the quintessential talcum-powdered perfume, perhaps the king of the category for being more accessible. Don’t get me wrong: they are different. Teint de Neige is an ode to musk, with personality and a touch of dirtiness; Infusion d’Iris distills cleanliness and innocence. Here, iris is king, powdery and creamy, balanced by a light green note of galbanum and a subtle incense. The downside is the performance: soft sillage and about 3 hours of longevity. If it lasted longer, I’d buy it without hesitation. Scent 7/10, Longevity 3/10, Sillage 6/10, Value 4/10, Versatility 6/10, Packaging 7/10. Would I buy it again? No.
It’s an extremely elegant fragrance and perfectly unisex.
In my opinion, the cleanest and most beautiful scent I know. I always say it should be subsidized so people could smell like this on the street. It’s been my signature for years, and I’ll keep buying it as long as it’s available. Simply wonderful!
It starts citrusy, turns green after 15 minutes, and ends sweet on the skin. I was surprised because, even though it’s fresh, I didn’t expect that final fusion. The longevity is non-existent… the brand is lying to us, it barely lasts 4 hours. I don’t recommend it; there are mists for €2.99 that last longer. It’s harmonious, but not worth it. PADRA NEEDS TO STEP UP!!!!!
I love it, it’s perfect for everyday wear: persistent but not overpowering, clean and classy. It’s a beautiful iris scent that never gets tiring, ideal for daily use. ❤❤❤
Strangely maternal (and I don’t remember my mother smelling like this at all). Evocative of something melancholic and retro. Clean, soft, and vintage scent. I like it and understand why it has so much to talk about, even though it’s not for me. Very curious what this made me feel.
No one works the iris like Prada. It is the quintessential clean and powdery perfume. For me, it’s completely unisex. It has class and presence. Moderate longevity and an excellent option for spring. It has class and elegance for a formal setting. Ideal for going to work.
A very well-made perfume, a very real and deep iris, hyper powdery. Someone asked if it’s a youthful perfume; no, I don’t find it youthful. It’s too well-made, it’s serious, smells clean and very floral. I usually don’t assign ages to perfumes, but I’d say it’s for use from age 26. The opening is very potent, but it settles quickly and stays as a short skin sillage, yet it remains a deep and beautiful scent, nothing changes from the moment you apply it until it fades. Lasts about 6 hours on average.
I disagree with the idea that it’s very similar to ‘Infusion d’Iris Cèdre’ or ‘Infusion d’Homme’, as I barely notice any resemblance: that excellent iris from Prada. Infusion d’Iris is citrusy and bright, with a very well-made neroli. Unlike the other two, which are discreet and powdery.
It smells like a diaper, what a shame because it looked so promising.
Very soft and light, incredibly powdery on my skin with a slight tangerine aroma at first, then the iris in all its glory. More for enjoying yourself than for others; it doesn’t have much sillage, only in the first few hours, after which only you can smell it. I find it even unisex; I think a man could wear it without any issues; it should look good on male skin too.
It has a very personal scent, not for everyone’s taste. I love the top notes, but there’s a base note I don’t like, like earth, I’m not sure which one. Reading comments, I found one that I think hit the nail on the head: ‘Evocative of something melancholic and retro. Clean, soft, and vintage’ by Annie6. I don’t like saying I don’t like a perfume because, in my view, all perfumes are fascinating scents. But I wouldn’t buy it.
Dumb question: Has it been reformulated? I smelled it again and it’s not even a shadow of what it was. Please tell me I’m anosmic and the problem is mine, that I’m having a meltdown if they change this 🥴
It’s clean, elegant, and so discreet it seems to ask for permission to stay on your skin. The iris isn’t powdery or grandma-floral; it’s a cold, metallic stroke, like the scent of opening an empty brass cookie tin holding only family photos. There’s a hint of orange blossom, light wood, and expensive soap that’s never used. It doesn’t seek to excite or impress. No dramatic twists or notes fighting for attention. Just a polished feeling of order and quiet distinction. If you’re looking for fireworks, you’ll find silence here, and if you know how to enjoy it, you’re probably already where you were meant to be.
This is the perfume that has gotten me the most compliments. I tried it on a free sample and fell in love at first sniff, even though as a teenager I couldn’t afford the price. Until I grew up and finally could buy it. It’s a gorgeous iris, clean and airy with a unisex vibe, mixed with woods, resins, and citrus. It has great longevity and sillage.
