Prada Luna Rossa Carbon Eau de Toilette 50ml is the cool, mineral-forward 2017 chapter of Prada's Luna Rossa men's line, named after the brand's America's Cup sailing team. Italian bergamot and black pepper open the bottle with crisp lift, lavender, metallic notes and a soil-tincture accord shape a distinctive aromatic-mineral heart, and the drydown of ambroxan, patchouli and dry amber gives it presence into the evening.

The story behind Luna Rossa Carbon
Where the original 2012 Luna Rossa is built around a clean lavender-aromatic structure, Carbon was conceived as the "darker, more intense" chapter — a fragrance that captures the kinetic energy of metal, water and machinery aboard a racing yacht. The mineral and metallic notes layered with steam-distilled lavender create a distinctive cool-warm contrast that has made it one of the most recognisable men's launches of the late 2010s.
Who it's for
Best for men who like modern aromatic fragrances with a cool, slightly futuristic edge — natural territory for fans of Dior Sauvage, Bleu de Chanel, Yves Saint Laurent Y or Mont Blanc Explorer. Wears well year-round and at its best in spring, summer and warm autumn weather; an excellent office, daytime and casual evening signature with enough character to carry into a night out.
How to wear it
Spray onto pulse points — wrists, neck and the base of the throat — from around 15 cm away. As an Eau de Toilette built on an ambroxan-amber base, expect crisp projection in the first one to two hours and a soft, dry-aromatic skin scent that lingers six to eight hours total.
