From the JournalThe Best Designer Colognes of 2026, Ranked: Ten Picks From Fresh to Warm →
Nadège Le Garlantezec, Shyamala Maisondieu, and Antoine Maisondieu worked with Miuccia Prada and Raf Simons on this 2022 release. The idea was to hold two opposite ideas at once—timeless and avant-garde, natural and engineered. Prada uses biotech molecules (Ambrofix, Serenolide) so the amber and musk stay transparent instead of heavy.
It feels modern and a little slippery—clean but not cold. You feel like you’re already dressed for whatever comes next.
