Lust
Created by perfumer Anne Flipo, Lust by Proad is designed for confident wearers who want a dramatic evening scent. The fragrance balances succulent top notes of raspberry and peach with the lush elegance of Turkish rose and jasmine. Rather than remaining a simple fruity floral, the base delivers a complex foundation of earthy nagarmotha, creamy sandalwood, and bold civet. This combination gives the blend an opulent, slightly provocative edge that thrives in low temperatures and night settings. Wearers looking for a commanding profile will appreciate its remarkable longevity and expansive sillage, making it a standout choice for formal occasions, autumn nights, and intimate dates.

EDITORIAL“Lust by Proad Review: A Daring Fruity Floral With Animalic Depth”
Lust by Proad opens with an immediate burst of sweet, tart raspberry alongside the velvety flesh of ripe peach. There is nothing timid about this entrance. The fruit notes feel dense and concentrated rather than airy or aquatic, announcing an opulent profile right from the initial spray. While the fruit sweetness is bright, a subtle undercurrent hints at darker base elements lurking beneath the surface.
As the opening fruit begins to soften, the heart unfolds into a commanding bouquet of Turkish rose and jasmine. The rose accord dominates this stage, offering rich, velvety floral tones that pair seamlessly with the lingering peach nectar. White floral jasmine adds fullness and warmth. Moving into the base, the fragrance reveals its animalic core. Sandalwood provides a smooth woodiness, but it is nagarmotha and civet that truly define the dry-down. The nagarmotha brings an earthy, smoky quality, while civet introduces a primal, musky warmth that grounds the entire fragrance.
Throughout the day, the accords shift from vibrant and fruity to earthy and musky. The initial hour is heavily defined by the fruity and sweet accords, projecting a jammy, youthful energy. By the third hour, the floral and rose accords become the center of gravity, radiating a refined, romantic depth. In the later stages of wear, the animalic, earthy, and woody facets take over completely. Civet remains present without smelling dirty, providing a sensual, skin-like warmth that anchors the fading rose petals.
Performance is a major asset for Lust by Proad. Community voters classify the longevity as long lasting to eternal, with most reporting between 7 and 12 hours of wear, and some reporting even longer endurance. Projection is equally formidable, with wearers voting the sillage as either strong or enormous. Because it projects far and lasts all day, this fragrance is best saved for cool weather and evening occasions. Night outings in fall and winter are ideal settings where cold air allows the rich florals and animalic notes to breathe without overwhelming.
This fragrance suits lovers of dramatic, retro-leaning florals who enjoy a genuine animalic kick. Enthusiasts who appreciate complex rose scents will find plenty of character in its dark base. On the other hand, shoppers looking for a clean, office-friendly floral or a light everyday fruit splash should definitely skip this one. Anyone sensitive to civet or smoky nagarmotha may find the base too heavy and challenging for daytime wear.
Overall, Lust by Proad is an impressive release from perfumer Anne Flipo that boldly merges playful fruit with classic perfumery depth. Its high rating of 4.67 out of 5 reflects strong early enthusiasm from wearers. Because the animalic base is distinct and the sillage is enormous, we recommend sampling before buying a full bottle, but confident evening wearers will find it well worth exploring.
