Prada Paradoxe Eau de Parfum 50ml Set
What's included:
- Prada Paradoxe Eau de Parfum 50ml
- Prada Paradoxe Eau de Parfum Travel Spray 10ml
Prada Paradoxe is one of those fragrances that everybody and their mum (sister, cousin, chic aunt, friend group, girl-you-just-met-in-the-bathroom) seems to fall for. It's also an Adore Beauty editor favourite (Sadaf and I, can't get enough of it).
It's technically a floral but not in the predictable way.
First spritz reveals a bright (and fresh) hit of neroli and jasmine. Then the techy bits kick in. Ambrofix™ brings a warm ambery glow and Serenolide™ adds that soft skin-like trail Prada is becoming known for. The result is a scent that feels polished and effortlessly cool.
Perfect for the person who wants something feminine but with a twist. Compliments always ensue.
Hot tip: Prada fragrances are intensified by the warmth of your own body. Try applying the scent in the creases of your knees and elbows for a strong and longer-lasting effect.

What's included:
- Libre Eau de Parfum 90ml

Equal parts glitzy and seductive. The Libre scent way is all about contrast: masculine lavender notes meet sultry Moroccan orange blossom. An alluring hit of vanilla dials up the headiness.
Bold, sensual and liberating.
Dressed in a brushed gold bottle, this limited edition set feels as much a fashion moment as it is fragrance.
The trio (including a body lotion and mini) invites layering that lingers long into the evening. Perfect for the friend who lives in YSL (and always arrives fashionably late).

At the top you get lush sambac jasmine a full creamy floral that feels instantly addictive yet still elegant. Heart notes of cashmeran brings a soft woody warmth (with a touch of attitude) that gives the fragrance its cool slightly rebellious edge.
Bourbon and vanilla base notes anchor for that smooth, silky finish.
Bonus points for the gorgy gold-wrapped gift set, so it already looks like you put in more effort than you did.

Ideal for anyone experimenting, still figuring out their signature scent or simply loves a purse-sized mini spritz (great for nights out or TSA-check points).

Each miniature gives you a proper sense of the fragrance without the commitment. Idôle brings its clean bright energy. Trésor is all classic elegance. La Nuit Trésor leans richer and moodier perfect for evening. Miracle adds a fresh uplifting twist. Then there is La Vie Est Belle with its sweet gourmand warmth and soft florals the closest thing to bottled optimism.
Think of it as a tiny tour through Lancôme’s greatest hits. A thoughtful gift for someone exploring their scent style or a clever way to keep a few different moods in your arsenal.
