Our take

What does Luna Rossa Carbon smell like?

Composed by Daniela Andrier and launched in 2017, Luna Rossa Carbon extends the sporty, technological world of the Luna Rossa line, tied to competitive sailing. The opening is lively: bright bergamot and dry pepper. The heart pairs cool, aromatic lavender with metallic notes that suggest carbon fibre, cold steel and electricity. The base is dominated by Ambroxan (warm, woody, slightly salty) with a clean patchouli adding an earthy touch. The result is very crisp, almost mineral, halfway between classic fougère and modern synthetic freshness. It smells of clean skin and metal without any heaviness and is easy to wear on almost any occasion.

When to wear it

For the office, daytime or casual outings nearly year-round; it suits men who like fresh, modern scents.

VerdictA very effective modern fougère, though its omnipresent Ambroxan lacks originality.

It belongs to the Woody, Fougère family. Luna Rossa Carbon is one of 5 creations by Prada in our encyclopedia.
