For anyone chasing after Prada's new Infusion de Fleur d'Oranger, the Neiman Marcus website still shows it as a pre-order with delivery in mid-April, but many Neiman Marcus stores apparently have it in stock.
This reminds me, this summer I’m going to study my Japanese reeeaaallly hard
I want to try the Noire Aroma M but I haven’t yet
Good luck!
Does this mean the trip to Germany is off? Or are you going to study Japanese WHILE you are in Germany ?? —way too confusing for me!
I tried the new Prada at lunch break yesterday, it is very soapy and bears a lot of resemblance with both “Infusions” (d’iris and d’homme). I thought about you (if I’m correct, you’re happy with the iris, right? ;)! But for me, since I didn’t like the first “infusions” to begin with, I didn’t like this one much…
My wallet was happy !!!
You’re the 2nd person I’ve heard from that didn’t like it. I am remaining stubbornly hopeful
Well, I didn’t like it much either
Me too… chasing after the ever-elusive Holy Grail of Orange Blossom is frustrating!
Soapy?? Nooooo!!! This is probably the one I am most looking forward to. I also remain stubbornly optimistic!
LOL — we’ll start a support group.
I’m dying to try this! Can I join the support group?
I guess to me orange blossom somehow always means “soapy” unless something unusual is done with it… and I found Infusion d’Iris pretty darn soapy and more than a bit orange-blossommy. For my orange blossom money, that new Varvatos Artisan is the ticket, I’m telling you!
I haven’t tried any orange blossom perfumes… but I have orange blossom candies and they smell and taste soapy.
I don’t really mind soapy in my perfume…
lol – I read “candies” as “candles” and wondered why you were tasting them!
That’s funny – I never get soap from orange blossoms – I even have orange blossom soap and it is less soapy than most soap – lol, but when I complain about “soapy” in a scent, it means it smells like Zest. There are some perfumes that smell like high-quality, French-milled luxury soaps and that is just dandy.
I’m crossing my fingers that Artisan is the Holy Grail!
I have tried several Aroma Ms and haven’t been impressed. I doubt that I’ll try this one as they are so difficult to locate!
Several online niche retailers carry the line, but if you haven’t been impressed that probably doesn’t help you
Robin, I would love to see your review on the Prada’s new Infusion de Fleur d’Oranger. I’m looking for a new spring orange blossom scent.
L’artisan is too expensive.
I hope to review it soon!
Well, the new PRADA ist some… dishwasher, soap, toilet cleaner, air-refresher, choose wahtever you like. Orange? None. Boring and nearly annoying. My friend bought it from the duty free in Norway, I still wonder why – she has a pretty good taste otherwise.
Oh dear. Hope fading.
