Luna Rossa Sport by Prada | Review + Tips to Wearing Men's Cologne
11:03 AM
My favorite thing lately has been using men's colognes as my own perfume. I don't like too strong or overpowering scents to be worn on me, which I find women's perfumes to be. Sometimes they can be too sweet or florally.
My newest obsession has been Prada's Luna Rossa Sport Eau de Toilette cologne.
I got a sample of this in one of my packages from Ulta, and I instantly fell in love. One of Ulta's workers told me that it was a fairly new cologne and that it was usually flying off their shelves, and for good reason.
If you're a fan of YSL's L'Homme Cologne, this will be right up your alley.
I purchased the 1.7oz spray, mainly because it was only $64 (Relatively cheap for a high end brand, in my opinion), and because I like to stick to one or two scents at a time rather than have them sitting around. Because I purchased at Ulta, they had one of their specials and I received a free weekend duffle bag with this, so definitely look out for their freebies if you're looking to buy!
Top Notes:
Ginger, juniper berry
Heart Notes:
Lavendar
Base Notes:
Vanilla, tonka bean
This entire mixture of scents reminds me of fall and curling up in front of the fireplace. I'm insanely in love with this smell. I don't usually smell it on myself (the markings of a good scent for you), but when I get in bed at the end of the night I can always smell it on my pillow.
I love more masculine scents, and honestly sometimes you can't really tell the difference between a man's cologne and a woman's perfume. Most people can't either. I've been told by both men and women that whatever I'm wearing smells amazing.
The key to wearing a cologne as your signature scent is to not use too much of it (Of course, that also goes for every other scent too). I find with this cologne that I only need one spray on my wrists, and a tiny dab behind my ears. It lasts all day for me.
I also like mixing cologne with a girly scent. Luna Rossa Sport goes great with a rose scent. I don't use anything in particular, just some cheap spray I picked up from a flea market that cost me $3, but the combination is out of this world. I don't know why and I can't explain it, but putting both of them together is like a scentgasm.

I totally agree! I received this as a sample size and immediately fell in love with it. When going to actually purchase the scent, is when I found it was actually men's cologne. I was shocked! It smells heavenly!
