Paradoxe Radical Essence
Antoine Maisondieu put neroli oil at the front of Prada Paradoxe Radical Essence and built everything else to hold it there.

How it moves
Neroli oil and bergamot hit first, the way an opening line should. By the half hour it has become orange flower and salted pistachio. What is left hours later is sandalwood, amber and musk, and that is the part people follow you for.
Who made it
Antoine Maisondieu composed it in 2025, for Prada in Italy. Composed in 2025 by Antoine Maisondieu, Nadege Le Garlantezec and Shyamala Maisondieu, adding salted pistachio to the Paradoxe neroli signature.
