Paradigme
Paradigme by Prada is a masculine-leaning eau de parfum from 2025 in the designer price tier. It opens with bergamot and musk, moves into geranium and dries down to benzoin, peru balsam and guaiac wood. Expect around 7 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Bergamot Sharp citrus with a faint bitter edge. The opening of about half of all men's fragrances.
- Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
Heart
- Geranium Rosy and minty at once. Reads masculine more often than not.
Dry-down
- Benzoin Sweet balsamic resin. Vanilla-adjacent but drier.
- Peru Balsam Vanilla and cinnamon resin. Deep and syrupy.
- Guaiac Wood Smoky, tarry and slightly sweet. Like a bonfire and roses.
