The story behind the bottle.
Infusion d'Iris by Prada was launched in 2007 and quickly became a cult favorite, winning the FiFi Award for Fragrance of the Year (Women's Nouveau Niche) in 2008. The nose behind this creation is Daniela Andrier, who crafted a scent that embodies an understated-luxury style often described as 'clean girl aesthetic.' This fragrance opens with bright citrus notes and African orange flower before transitioning into a heart of iris and woody accords, anchored by earthy vetiver and incense. Infusion d'Iris is praised for its refined, expensive quality but has also been criticized for its weak projection relative to its price.
Infusion d'Iris has delicate sillage, so apply it generously to pulse points where it will warm on your skin. It's best for daytime or indoor settings, as its subtle projection may get lost in more open spaces.
