Infusion d'Oeillet

Infusion d'Oeillet is a 2015 unisex chypre from Prada built around a single, decisive idea: carnation rendered warm and spicy rather than powdery or sweet. The listed pyramid opens with carnation alongside styrax, Australian sandalwood, Indonesian patchouli leaf and mandarin orange. No heart or base notes are documented, so the composition reads as a compact, front-loaded statement where the clove-like spice of carnation meets the resinous warmth of styrax and the green, earthy depth of patchouli leaf. Mandarin adds a brief citrus lift before the woody-amber spine takes over.

The accord breakdown — warm spicy at full weight, woody close behind, then floral, amber, patchouli and balsamic — tells you what to expect on skin: a dry, spicy-floral chypre with a resinous finish rather than a soft bouquet. It suits collectors who favor vintage-style carnation treatments and unisex spice-woods over fresh or gourmand profiles. Best worn in cool weather or evening, and worth sampling if you appreciate patchouli and styrax in a restrained, architectural register.

Infusion d'Oeillet 係 Prada 於 2015 年推出嘅中性西普香，核心係康乃馨，但走溫暖辛香路線，唔係粉感或甜香。香調表以康乃馨開場，配蘇合香、澳洲檀香、印尼廣藿香葉同橘子；官方未列出中調與基調，所以結構偏向前置、緊湊，丁香般的辛香同樹脂暖意、廣藿香葉嘅泥土綠意交疊，橘子只帶來短暫柑橘提亮。

主調比例以溫暖辛香最重，木質緊隨，之後係花香、琥珀、廣藿香同香脂，上皮後係乾爽嘅辛香花香西普，收尾帶樹脂感，而非柔軟花束。適合鍾意舊派康乃馨處理、辛香木質多過清新或美食調嘅收藏者；秋冬季或夜晚使用較合適，若你欣賞克制而有建築感嘅廣藿香與蘇合香，值得試香。
