Frequently Asked Questions about Purple Rain by Prada
What does Purple Rain by Prada smell like?
Purple Rain by Prada features top notes of Bergamot and Galbanum, middle notes of Hedione, Iris, Neroli, and Rose, and base notes of Cedarwood, Iso E Super, Musk, Sandalwood, Vetiver, and Violet.
Who created Purple Rain by Prada?
Purple Rain by Prada was created by Daniela (Roche) Andrier.
Clearly a fragrance which is in the mould of Andrier's works in the Iris family and frankly this signature accord will be her and Prada's lasting legacy. I don't know if I'd forgotten what The Infusion range smelled like but I found this to be a little more sparkling than I remember Iris or Homme. Could be wrong though. Now as far as I'm aware The Infusions are no longer in production and I kinda understand the outrage at paying twice the price for what is in essence, the same thing. I'd have more of an issue perhaps if they were still making them, but if they're not then I'm afraid this is the alternative. As for the name, I'm a Prince fan so naturally that name can do no wrong. My thought process was...Wow! Loving that fresh bergamot opening, into a hinted neroli, with iris and vetiver heart and a cedar base. Classic and time tested as it comes, but at £280 a little much for me. The 'Night' ones in this line offer more perceived value as big, thick, concentrated beasts.
