I occasionally wear Prada’s Infusion de Iris, so news of the label’s latest–Infusion de Tubéreuse–in WWD this morning sent a thrill of excitement down my well-perfumed spine. (Find my closely-documented search for the ultimate signature scent here.)

This perfume includes Indian tuberose and Italian blood orange, amongst other less organic-sounding ingredients. What I like about the new scent–other than the fact that the box is covered in a print from the Prada archives–is that the rose they used is very young, which means it won’t have that old-lady-in-a-church smell.

But for those who just can’t stand roses, the brand’s introducing a vétiver scent, too. Both arrive in stores–including Neiman Marcus and Barneys–come April.

I think the design is beautiful, and I love how the box is mimicked on the lid of the perfume bottle. I also appreciate the disclaimer about Prada using a “young” rose, to appeal to young buyers. I think we're all too familiar with the “old lady” perfume smell. That said, I always find that descriptions of scents, though, don't really do the perfumes justice. It's so hard to grasp what exactly it smells like without having experienced it. Maybe I'll have to travel down to my local Sephora or wherever and take a whiff.
