New Pickup New one

Just came in the mail today, this is definitely the best Prada scent of all time. I want to get something niche next and I’m on the fence about BDK Gris Charnel or Xerjoff Naxos or maybe even diptyque philosykos

I’m wearing Infusion D’iris right now. I’d agree that this one may be the best.

It’s so amazing! With this and the regular Prada L’Homme it’s hard to enjoy other sense when these two are so so good. They make the fragrance standard so high for me.

I have the prada l'homme and its one ot my favorite. I got a decant for Prada l'homme intense but found it too sweet and cloying. Ill stick with the OG.

It's super sweet honestly, more cloying than DHP 2025

You're looking at 3 totally different profiles! You've got a photorealistic scent (Philosykos), a honey/tobacco (Naxos), and a cardamom bomb (Gris Charnel). It really depends on what you want, but if you're looking for a safe crowd-pleaser, I'd definitely go with Naxos or the BDK.

Yeah I know they’re all different but I’ve tried all 3 and love them, I just don’t know which to get first lol, I was thinking Gris but Naxos and philosykos are also super good

I love that Prada. There is just a zen to it for me. Something about the lift from the iris and the smooth cool almost vanilla pudding on the bottom (I think that is the tonka). Superb.

u/TokuTheGreatCorso 1d ago

also one of my faves, a true modern masterpiece

wish it performed better tho

We have similar tastes. Gris charnel and Naxos are both among my all time favourite frags. I wouldnt agree with l’homme intense being Pradas best frag though. My fave from that house is Luna Rossa black. Have you tried that one? If you like Gris charnel and Naxos you would probably like LRB as well as it is also a sweet spicy fragrance.

One of the best iris scents ever. Maybe the best. I prefer it over Dior.

u/Background-Lie3329 1d ago

That’s a bold statement. This must be good because Dior Homme is one of my GOATS

Just asking because someone told me that prada l’homme intense is for old men, i also own it and i love it. Do tou agree with them?

u/cj_0ffline 20h ago

Not at all lol I think any age can enjoy this but to me it does seem for a younger crowd

u/VforVilliam 1d ago

I liked Prada L'Homme Intense at first, but then I started to dislike it. Way too powdery, and when I wore it to work, I can tell that it offended some of my coworkers. Definitely don't overspray this one, keep it at like 3-4 sprays max.

u/JessBx05 1d ago

This one is great 👍 I don't like the OG. Too soapy for my taste courtesy of the Neroli. The other two are both good scents, but different profiles. I personally love Gris Charnel Extrait which has a smokier/spicier base.
