About this deal

I recently bought a 10ML sample of Prada Amber based solely on these memories from my adolescence. It is a fine, even a lovely scent. Very modern for its time, and does not smell dated in 2022. I don't know why, but I was not expecting it to be SO amber-y on the dry-down. But the top is all soap and clean neroli powder. One of the things that makes Prada Amber Pour Homme so special is its versatility. It's suitable for any occasion, whether you're dressed up for a formal event or simply heading out for a casual day. This fragrance is perfect for any season, and it can be worn day or night. Very complex, evolving gently around the main accord of fougere-amber, so far from linear performance and as comfortable as the softest cashmere knitwear.

Yes, it has this clean, soapy tone and I'm here for it! One could say that with this gentle, balsamic soapiness it might be the masculine equivalent of Chanel No5!I remember that first time I smelled it I thought of Provance and it's airy lavender fields scorched by the summer sun because it's still very resinous and floral. If you came here looking for a proper soapy beast, try Pour Lui by Oscar de la Renta. When it dries down, it settles down to a modern take on incense. Imagine James Bond infiltrating Shaolin Temple in monk robes and insists on putting on fragrance, this would be it. Scent summary: modern incense powder. Prada Amber Pour Homme, also known as Prada Man, is a fragrance that exudes sophistication and elegance. From the moment you first spray it on, you'll be captivated by its intriguing blend of warm, spicy, and woody notes. Another standout feature of Prada Amber Pour Homme is its longevity. It lasts for several hours without fading, so you can enjoy the scent throughout the day. Additionally, the sillage, or the fragrance trail it leaves behind, is just right, making it noticeable without being overpowering.

With this juice on, I feel—and smell—so clean. Not just squeaky clean, but the luxurious kind of clean. Something that I might not afford even if I abstain from fine bread for a month or so. On train rides, around the corner of my eyes I see members of the crowd too, secretly trying to catch some whiffs of my scent, which probably radiates from an arm’s length. It stays like that for seven to ten hours, until it fades to a manlier skin trace. Manlier, I say, because at its early stage, this scent is more inclined to being androgynous. As I had mentioned earlier. The opening notes of bergamot, mandarin, and neroli give way to a heart of cardamom, geranium, and vetiver. The base notes of patchouli, tonka bean, vanilla, and sandalwood provide a warm and inviting finish to this masculine fragrance. I was saddened to hear that Amber Pour Homme might be discontinued, both because it puts something lovely out of reach but also because the perfume landscape (and certainly PRADA’s line) will be poorer without it. In my opinion, this fragrance deserves the iconic status of being considered the reference 'soapy' men's fragrance… Aside from being highly original in conception and execution, it offers a sane iteration of a genre so prevalent in the 21st century, that of unconventional presentations of natural materials (supported by a very conspicuous thematizing of synthetics) to create spatially detached, urban-minimalist, post-industrial and futuristic effects… Amber Pour Homme can indeed smell like a ‘dryer sheet’ and yet does not wear as something inert, ‘bloblike’, monolithic, faddishly conceptual, or pointedly artificial…Instead, it is persistently warm, balanced, mobile, complex, expressive and reasoned – in short, it is good company for the human skin. While I get fairly moderate performance out of PRADA Amber Pour Homme, I find it easy to wear day after night after day, not because it is ‘office safe’ or ‘a dumb reach’, but because it is so quietly rich and thoughtfully designed -- a thinking person's soapy bliss.The comparison to soap that has been made by so many was part of what led me to try this fragrance, but as I have come to love it I’ve wanted to better understand the composition’s underlying complexity. It has taken me awhile to sort out my impressions because everything I'm describing happens on a very subtle level. Here goes: This is a good scent for certain professions because it has no character of its own. While most fragrances have a sort of character to them: loud (the scent kidnaps every nose in the room); sexy (trying to add impression points); you get my point? Amber Pour Homme wants to remain invisible. Therefore, I would recommend this to people in certain professions that need to be intimate but do not want to impress like pastors, counsellors, teachers, dentists, chiropractors, nurses, lab researchers, etc. It's balmy, yet sweet..complicated, yet simple. Hard to put your finger on, and hard to describe. There's something misty, foggy, and powdery about it. It's clean, spicy, and sharp all at the same time. On my skin, it's smooth and sexy. I picture this fragrance being worn by a well-groomed, suit-and-tie, 30-something man. It's very metrosexual, as a man who takes care of himself.
