This perfume has sat in my collection forever, and I can’t believe that I haven’t reviewed it, especially considering that I love the smell of vetiver. Officially a “men’s” scent, but one that I keep for myself. This was originally launched as an EDT pour homme, and then reformulated and relaunched as a unisex EDP.
Prada Infusion de Vetiver – I know it doesn’t say this on the bottle, but this was a Prada Homme launch back when they were first launching the Infusions. They put the notes right on the bottle: Vetiver, tarragon, Madagascar pepper, and purple (or red) ginger.
This is definitely a unisex scent, and I love the dryness of the Vetiver at any time of year. When I found out that vetiver was a grass sometimes found in India, I realized that’s maybe why it spoke to me so much. The opening of Infusion de Vetiver is quite peppery and I find that I definitely have days when I’m not into that, so I don’t reach for this one. But on some days, if I want something revitalizing and awakening, the pepper is just the thing. This is definitely a morning or daytime scent for me because I prefer something cozy in the afternoon.
Because this is discontinued, it may only be available at fragrance resale points.
