Luna Rossa Black
masculine
Created by Daniela Andrier
Luna Rossa Black by Prada is a Oriental Woody fragrance for men. Luna Rossa Black was launched in 2018. The nose behind this fragrance is Daniela Andrier. Top note is Bergamot; middle notes are Angelica and Patchouli; base notes are Coumarin, Amber and Musk. In early 2018, the 7th version of Prada's popular Luna Rossa fragrance arrives on shelves. Luna Rossa Black follows the original Luna Rossa from 2012 and more recently, 2017's Luna Rossa Carbon. Inspired by the Prada Luna Rossa sailing challenge, an Italian sailboat racing syndicate first created to compete for the 2000 America's Cup and co-sponsored by Prada, the Luna Rossa fragrances have been created by perfumer Daniela Andrier with bottle designs by Yves Behar. This new version of Luna Rossa will feature top notes of bergamot and angelica; heart notes of patchouli and coumarin; and base notes of woody amber. Of note is the absence of lavender that was a key feature in so many of the other Luna Rossa editions. Prada Luna Rossa Black is available as a 50 and 100 ml Eau de Parfum.

The community has a positive view of Luna Rossa Black, praising its unique powdery scent and good longevity, though opinions vary on projection. The main criticism is its weak sillage and skin-scent nature, which makes it unsuitable for those wanting a "beast mode" fragrance. Discontinuation rumors persist despite evidence the fragrance remains widely available.
