Is Prada Paradigme the WORST Designer Release of 2025?
Prada’s new men’s fragrance Paradigme (2025) is finally here, but is it worth the hype (and $165 price tag)? In this video, I unbox the bottle, break down the notes (bergamot, airy musks, geranium, Peru balsam, benzoin, and guaiac wood), and give you my honest first impressions.
With three perfumers behind it (Bruno Jovanovic, Marie Salamagne, Nicolas Bonneville) and Tom Holland as the face, you’d expect something groundbreaking. Instead, Prada Paradigme leans heavily into the amber woody trend dominating designer fragrances from L’Oréal (think YSL, Armani, Valentino).
Is Prada Paradigme just another generic release, or does it deserve a spot in your collection? Watch to find out.
