Yes I can definitely get the Le Male from this, but not really that prominent since you can definitely use this during hot days but there has to be limitations on how many sprays and how hot the weather is. The magic is after 30 minutes of spraying this, by that time the mint is barely there and all I could smell is somewhat creamy very light vanilla that is not cloying, not so sweet tonka beans, powdery vibe and then faint wood. To put it simple, after 30 mins it still has the Le Male similarities, but I would say from 30% in the beginning to only about less than 10% after 30 mins on my skin. Now that’s all Prada LRS already after 30 min on my skin and comparing it 10% Le Male is not fair to Prada. Those things I mentioned after 30 min are all Prada LRS compliment getter. Oh and another thing, if something is 'mass apealing' or a 'crowd pleaser' then may I suggest that is a good thing? It's mass appealing because it appeals to a lot of people...because it smells nice....and that's bad because........? Update- I own the entire Luna Rossa line now, and not only is this one my favorite, it’s in my top 5 favorite fragrances. I didn’t like the sweet vanilla-ish vibe at first, only because I was expecting something more fresh/citrus, being called “sport” and all. I’m reality, this scent IMO blends everything I LOVE about the Luna Rossa line and puts it all into one scent. I literally can spray this for any occasion, anytime, anywhere, it just works. All the other frags in my top 5 tend to have a very specific time and place for when they’re appropriate to wear, and this is easily the most versatile. It’s clean, crisp, but warm and cozy, and it’s just very uplifting and happy scent for me. Longevity is good, projection is good as well, it’s not loud and in your face but not subtle and disappearing either. Perfection!! The opening is a burst of spicy freshness which is very appealing and noticeable. The combination of juniper and ginger is well done. As it begins to settle in, the next 30-45 minutes are it’s finest moments. That lavender seeping in combined with the spiciness is just killer the way it’s done.

I could tell he was an over sprayer but I didnt mind cause this is a fresh masculine scent. I will get me a bottle once I run out of luna rossa cause it would be redundant for me to own both. They are too similar. I'm not pretending to understand all the notes or if they share similarities in that department but they simply smell nothing like each other...at all. And at no point during this wearing has the fragrance smelled bad- from opening to dry down, the scent is perfectly pleasant. The strange thing is that even though I'm not totally in love with this, I find myself reaching for it more than just about anything else. It's just so pleasant and easy to wear that it's become my dumb-reach for the cooler weather, as the original is for the warmer weather.

I'm a big fan of Prada's house. When this came out in 2015 I tested it on strip and dismissed it. I thought to myself "Daniela Andrier, why would you go in this direction?". It seemed incredibly basic and generic and to me it didn't have the clean DNA that the Amber and L'homme line had. So Le Male is more of a sweet, smooth warm fragrance, where LRS is more a more soapy, spicy, masculin and grown up. The differences are huge. This gets compared to JPG Le Male and this is probably due to the notes. The scents however are very far apart. This comparison, together with the Reflection Man and Le Male comparison truly baffles me. People read something, instantly believe it and blabber it on, creating a myth. Fragrances should be tested side by side. They should not be judged by notes. PRADA LUNA ROSSA SPORT was created by perfumer Daniela (Roche) Andrier who created numerous Prada editions, fragrances of the La Gemme collection by Bvlgari as well as the latest tea fragrance Eau Parfumee au The Bleu, fragrances by Marni, Bottega Veneta, etc. The perfume opens with tart-citrusy ginger blended with aromatic flavors of juniper berries. The heart of the fragrance is enriched with lavender, while the base is warmed with vanilla and tonka. At first spray I thought this is decent, nothing special. So I didnt buy it. But I kept catching whiffs walking around the mall and after like a hour or so the scent changed completely. I was now WOWED. Cant really describe what I thought at first cause i wasnt digging it to much so I kinda wrote it off as I wasnt interested. Then that classic prada clean scent shined, the lavender, and then the base notes. The base notes with the lavender is where this scent shines. One word to describe this I would have to say "amazing". This is signature scent worthy in my honest opinion and it may end up being mine. This is a scent I dont hear much about and I believe it's highly underrated. As I keep bringing my hand up to smell cause it's to me a skin scent but others around me say they can still smell me and I only sprayed twice almost 7 hours ago. Never did i think that this would last as long as it has so far. I thought at max 3 maybe 4 hours cause they threw "sport" into its name. This is not a sport scent and it's very misleading, to me. If I washed it off like I wanted after spraying it on I would of never bought this. The magic is in the dry down and you just got to be patient to let this scent work its magic.

UPDATE: The more I wear this fragrance, the more I love it. The soapy Lavender is a work of art and I love wearing it after a shower at night. Prada produces the best soapy smelling fragrances on the market. I use to like it, now I love it. To my nose it is Le Male to all the individual that posted here, but I prefer this to Le Male it has the Le Male DNA In short this is very simple and linear soapy fragrance that is only suitable for settings that you would not like to offend anyone. For 2 months of heavy daily usage I have received no compliments, so do not necessarily trust those who say this is a panty dropper. It is not. This does not mean you will not smell good - it is just a very safe clean scent that would not make a lasting impression.

In Le Male the vanilla is very prominent, which makes the fragrance very sweet and more suited for the fall/winter. In PLRS the lavender is the main note to my nose. Luna Rossa Sport also smells very spicy, even though ginger is the only spice listed.

It has a smoothness and magnetism that will get others attention. Once it has completed its passage from beginning to end, the vanilla is intense. If you are not a fan of powdery vanilla, it might be a bit much. I really like this, it's fresh yet fairly sophisticated , fairly soft and not harsh or too youthful.but is more sattle. Again Luna Sport has that love and hate relationship in the fragrance community. But to me I like the scent and is not unique, but is wearable on all occasions and seasons for me. Still each to his or her own I suppose and if you're spraying this on your body then your nose is the only nose that matters, unless you're only after compliments from others of course. If I were to describe it to a friend in one sentence it would go as follows: It is a clean, sweet, powdery scent that is masculine enough. I've always liked the smell of Le Male on others, but there was always something about it that kept me from wearing it, something sharp and green (maybe the mint, but it didn't seem like mint). So when I first smelled this I dismissed it as a copy and assumed that I wouldn't like it. All in all, it’s a compliment getter that can be worn in just about any season and most occasions. I would even wear it to the office, but with just a couple of sprays. It’s not offensive or cloying, but a little will go a long way in that type of environment. It’s got great staying power, as good as any. Disregard claims that it doesn’t last…must have gone “nose-blind”.

Prada has expanded their collection Luna Rossa with a new fragrance for men, PRADA LUNA ROSSA SPORT arriving after Luna Rosa from 2012, Luna Rossa 34th America's Cup Limited Edition from 2013 and Luna Rossa Extreme from 2013. The new fragrance Prada Luna Rossa Sport arrives in the same flacon as previous editions, in attractive red glass combined with a smooth silver metallic part and represents a combination of sports style and superior sailing technique. The smart use of texture and contrast of the red and metallic silver colors makes the new fragrance Prada Luna Rossa Sport more prominent, attractive, modern and different from the rest of the line. Upon first blush, anyone who owns or likes JPG Le Male will have an “Aha” moment with this fragrance.When it comes to age factor I believe this will be best suited for 26+ as its not that playful like Eros, AHSEE, etc. But age is just a number if you love it then who cares. Update review it hasn't changed from the last review I posted on 12/09/18, my nose still detect the lavender, vanilla and Tonka bean which dominates from start to finish. I used to have Le Male only for a few days but I gifted to my Pastor's son, so I missed the Le Male DNA scent and grab the Prada Luna Rossa Sport, to my nose is similar to Le Male but to me Prada Luna Rossa Sport is a tad better than Le Male just my two scent. Is still a good release from Prada and is a must have if you don't own Le Male. Being different by smelling odd or even unappealing does not mean it's good or that people will find you mysterious or enigmatic, they will simply think you smell weird or odd and assume you are nose blind and don't realise you smell strange. LM comes across as a younger, louder clubbing fragrance, for the younger user but LR Sport to me is more mature and refined with lots to offer and nothing to prove. When I tried it again a couple months ago I realized that it was more than just a copy. While it's similar, this one is smoother and more balanced, a little bit better suited to younger people. I'm completely comfortable wearing this day or night, though I probably won't be wearing it much in the summer.
