Prada Paradoxe is a floral amber eau de parfum that pairs pear and citrus with neroli, orange blossom and jasmine. Its warm amber, vanilla and musk base gives the fresh floral opening a softer, enveloping finish, making it an expressive choice for everyday wear or an evening occasion.
Basic Union is a feminine Extrait de Parfum from Oakcha built around pear, orange and bergamot over orange blossom, neroli and jasmine sambac before amber, musk and vanilla take over in the base. Oakcha positions it directly as its interpretation of Prada Paradoxe.
