Of course
I've smelled him before. Even if it was always the same type of woman who wore it.
Friendly, open-minded, reliable, determined, strong and somehow a little bit Everybody's Darling. But that doesn't mean that she has the need to be liked by everyone, but much more that she knows how to present her own point of view and that her environment accepts and appreciates her for that. In school days she was the class representative who knew how to mediate diplomatically, got along with all the small groups within the class and was sent ahead to convince the teachers with her charm of the community's intentions. She doesn't beat about the bush much, but does. She doesn't shine through self-dramatization, but through modesty and by putting her words into action. She doesn't need applause, a nod of appreciation and a smile are enough.
She has this warm, affectionate aura that surrounds her and in which one must feel comfortable.
The La Femme bottle has a similar design. Without much chichi, but in radiant gold, warm and timelessly beautiful.
At first I thought it was a mixture of care products and fabric softener etc. that made the women smell so good, because I just couldn't perceive this typical perfume scent. Like a kind of "My Skin But Better" fragrance. Not sprayed lapidary on top, but one with the wearer herself.
Until I finally discovered La Femme, when I was once again in the perfumery of trust. Without a specific destination, I stripped the shelves until my gaze fell on the solid, golden bottle a lot. I'd never really noticed it before, but when it was illuminated by the sun, it was simply beautiful. Prada, very classy, I thought. So sprayed on and there it was. That smell. Not toiletries, a perfume. Creamy, flowery, soft and somehow quite warm, like the first rays of the morning sun. The scent I had noticed so often but never asked for it because it was so natural.
Since then it has been the Go-To fragrance for me when I have a difficult day ahead of me or feel insecure. He doesn't steal the show from me, but picks me up, catches me, grabs me under the arms when I need it and puts me in scene when I want to score.
No matter if with t-shirt and jeans, or with the little black one with the high heels, I can always count on Prada La Femme.

Every now and then, when I let my eyes wander and he arrives at my scents, he rests on La Femme. I smile and nod at him appreciatively. He cannot be taken for granted, even if it seems so..

The holiday photo provided
La Femme is one of those scents I like to overlook. He's nice at the strip test, but nothing gets stuck. Once again something feminine-floral-creamy and totally unagitated. but because I have shot myself at just such a bit at the moment (at least if I let it on the skin) I finally had to give La Femme a chance ...

He smells like Fragipani in the first place. I imagine a rich, sun-drenched and summer-dressed lady posing broadly smiling with a flower chain around her neck for a photo at the start of her Hawaii holiday. Because you can't go to Hawaii and not make a flower chain picture at least once. But then the woman retreats from and to her luxury resort and is guaranteed not to spend the rest of her holiday dealing with local customs.

The tuberose is the fine lady (I always associate tuberose scent with fine ladies) and the fragipani the exotic flower with which it adorns itself. It smells good, no question, but everything is a little too sterile and monotonous for me. Vanilla and Ylang Ylang blend in seamlessly to make the fragrance soft and feminine, but I lack a certain twist. Vetiver and beeswax would have been great but unfortunately I don't notice anything about it.

La Femme does not have a classic fragrance. Fragipani, tuberose and vanilla alternate in the foreground. I personally like that better than when a fragrance develops so linearly. first a head note, then a heart note, then a base note. However, for me the matter here is simply too sterile-flauschi-wauschi-heile-world-situated-holiday-photo-like. That's nice for 2 hours, when a Vetiver base brings me back to the ground, but I don't have to have that for a whole day now.

Durability and Sillage are appropriate for the price range. La Femme lasts all day, but you shouldn't treat yourself to more than a handful of sprays. After all, we have a Prada fragrance here and people always like to dust around with a lot of powder.

The bottom line is that Prada La Femme is once again a pure question of taste. Qualitatively there is nothing to criticize. It is wonderful as a fragrance at work, because you are not distracted by exorbitant fragrances and roller coaster-like fragrances of the daily work. If you are looking for something like this, you have a solid companion for everyday life

My Fair Lady
This fragrance came into my collection in a small detour. I can't remember where he came to my attention, but I really wanted to test him, which I did in the perfumery - once again on my way back through the city from work.

First sprayer.
Meeeeehhhhhh, FULL flowery! I felt like I was in a bad movie, in which the adored person succulently smashes the giant bouquet of flowers around the ears of her admirer, and even a few candles get broken.
Ui, näää, I don't think he's mine.

Later, a totally pleasant, powdery scent always came into my nose, which came from my arm?!

So that was the famous love at second sight.
The explosion of flowers is going down very fast and here they already mentioned The Tudors and Sex & the City - that's exactly where I would classify the fragrance. :-)

I associate this fragrance with a lady, a woman of the world, who knows what she wants, who is self-confident and self-assured, without appearing arrogant.
Feminine, feminine, powdery, creamy with a floral base, almost like an expensive skin care fragrance. But the flowers are in perfect symbiosis with the rest, it's sweetish (that's why I like it so much *g*).
Fits perfectly in the office or in everyday life.

The fragrance is for me for the transition, spring and autumn. It is too tame for me for winter, except on warmer days, but too flowery again for midsummer. Could become a darling, unobtrusive and noble.

PS: I can now also understand the comment "it's like O-juice, it must never go empty"! :-) By the way, "The One" moved in for me as successor for D&G, I would use both for the same seasons and occasions.

For real women
After I had finished my long marriage I didn't want to smell like before and went on the search. Not quite young anymore, but also not yet old ;)))), I could not make friends with the sweet and sticky scents. This piece of jewellery came just in time. Soft and gentle, creamy like an expensive body lotion, I feel well and always well cared for. The fragrance is unobtrusive enough for the office, yet it has already brought me many compliments there. Candidate for post-purchase sale.

Everyday fragrance with level
My collection has been turned upside down lately. I have discovered many new things for myself and have banished others... During the many tests old favourites moved into the background and were totally neglected for some months. But when I reapplied Prada La Femme for a long time today, I was enchanted again.
A gentle, feminine, flowery, adult fragrance. When I smell him I think of cultivated, self-confident and smart women and I hope this class, which he radiates in my eyes, also transmits a little to me. ;)
It is not as sweet as so many mainstreamers, and instead wonderfully creamy. And luckily that works without musk, with which I personally always have my difficulties.
For this I take a mix of wonderful white flowers was. To name these one by one would have been difficult for me without a fragrance pyramid. But when I read this: Frangipani, Ylang-Ylang and Tuberose, is almost as if Daniela Andrier wanted to give me a personal pleasure.
Beeswax is also clearly perceptible and provides for the special refinement.
So I am very happy with the scent and can only advise any friend of flowery scents to take a test.

I didn't know "clean floral" could exist until I experienced La Femme. It's what I imagine naturally good-smelling would smell like.
