Actress Emma Watson is front and center in the Prada Paradoxe Radical Essence campaign. Dressed in a tailored grey blazer with a soft pink lining, she reaches across a pale green surface, fingertips brushing the striking triangular bottle. This goes beyond the classic Prada flacon. It’s a deep, glossy red with a bold black cap, shaped like an icon in motion.
The fragrance itself is just as memorable. Created by master perfumers Shyamala Maisondieu, Nadège le Garlantezec, and Antoine Maisondieu, Paradoxe Radical Essence celebrates the multi-dimensional woman. She’s ever-changing, yet always true to herself.
At its core, neroli and orange flower bring a radiant floral brightness. A salted pistachio accord delivers a surprising gourmand twist, while creamy sandalwood leaves a smooth, sensual trail.

In the second image, the Prada bottle rests among delicate white blossoms, split green pods, and warm wood, evoking both nature’s rawness and luxury’s precision. This contrast mirrors the fragrance’s personality that’s bold, soft, daring, and elegant all at once.
Prada calls it an invitation to explore every side of yourself. One spritz and you’re reminded: you don’t have to choose between strong and sensitive. You can be both, always.
