Prima Paul Rieger, unveiled in 1913, is officially considered a feminine fragrance, rooted in the floral family.
Country of origin — the United States, and that already says something about the quality. A rich, layered composition that reveals itself differently depending on your mood and the time of day.
One bottle, and you'll understand why Paul Rieger has such a devoted following. The official website of Paul Rieger — https://www.laboticadelosperfumes.com/.
The fragrance is very long-lasting, staying on the skin for 12 hours or more, gradually revealing its notes
The scent will linger in the air even after its wearer has left.
The perfume has a rich aroma that will help you stand out from the crowd and create a memorable image
A rich and elegant fragrance that gently unfolds on the skin and lasts most of the day, leaving a delicate trail
Fragrances for spring and summer unfold with light citrus notes, floral and fruity accords, filling the composition with freshness, airiness, and a feeling of carefree lightness on warm days
The composition of Prima unfolds as a layered story, where layers reveal themselves with precision and warmth. The creative approach of Paul Rieger is evident in the way notes appear and fade. Nothing here feels random, and the composition keeps a clear direction.
The olfactory framework is shaped by these accords: Floral with each one in a clear role. The stylistic positioning is feminine, which sharpens how the fragrance is perceived.
When the structure is mixed the notes arrive together with a voluminous floral mood: Floral Notes and Primrose. Here 2 notes act as one integrated frame, creating an elegant floral wave that feels seamless.
The inner phases are perceived as a continuous motion from lift to depth, which keeps the fragrance coherent.
At olfactory-group level the composition is built around Floral and Whiteflower. Within olfactory families the scent maps to Floral.
Taken together Prima holds a coherent structure — the first stage creates momentum, the middle layer carries the identity, while the drydown anchors the memory. This is the type of composition best experienced in wear.
