The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2008 by Prada, No9 Benjoin is an Oriental fragrance that embodies the brand's signature blend of elegance and modernity. The composition opens with a burst of citrus and balsamic notes, creating a fresh yet warm atmosphere. As it settles into its heart, powdery and musky accords emerge, offering a soft embrace that feels both intimate and lasting. The base notes of amber and vanilla add depth, making No9 Benjoin a harmonious blend of warmth and sophistication.

How to wear it

Apply two sprays to ensure that the powdery and musky heart notes have time to develop fully. This fragrance is best for daytime wear as it offers a subtle warmth without overpowering others.
