Rather than evoking the idea of bright purple lavender blooms gleaming in the sunlight, Carbon presents the note in total blackness and crafted from synthetic materials. Luna Rossa Carbon opens with a dark and gauzy lavender note accented by citrus and spice (I get a hint of black pepper and elemi somewhere in the mix). Vert da Bergamote, Patchouli, Ambroxan and Lavender. In an age where ‘natural’ is valued more and more, it’s encouraging to know that the technology and innovation of the industry can be promoted in such an open manner. What I will say, before we get to the sniff test, is that it’s always refreshing for a mainstream brand to talk about the use of synthetics so openly. Well, them some pretty big words you got there, Prada – let’s hope that this fragrance lives up to the hype. They call it “a set of intriguing, engineered-contradictions” and describe it as an “ iconoclastic fougère”. For Luna Rossa Carbon they are exploring the clash of natural materials and synthetics to represent the olfactory idea of carbon. With their latest launch in the Luna Rossa franchise, Prada seem to be innovating. It’s an accessible fragrance made with a high degree of excellency.

The result is something like Luna Rossa, which is a minty fresh blend of lavender, musk and spices inspired by the brand’s professional sailing boat. Where many brands would take a cynical approach to masculine perfumery, Prada seeks to incorporate quality and a distinct signature to create fragrances that stand out from the crowd, but not so much that they don’t appeal to the average consumer. Everything about the many fragrances in their collection, which stretches from the likes of Candy, Les Infusions de Prada, L’Homme Prada and La Femme Prada, and Luna Rossa, feels finely curated and created in their inimitable house-style. Carbon – The Latest Luna Rossa Flanker from PradaĪs far as mainstream lines go, Prada is one of the very best.
