Probably like 3121. I have been buying bottles of it. Was just at a one year old party the other week and the mother grabbed me and asked what i was wearing. Then asked her mom to smell me LOL. Paisley park for a while ven smelled like 3121



3121 has a scent that closes my throat. I'm asthmatic.

I have read that he used a lavender oil, then a Calvin Klein scent. Does anyone know what fragrance he used the past few years?

Don't know but Frank Sinatra reportedly smelled like lavender as well. He was allergic to strong cologne (hated Sammy Davis Jr.'s strong cologne). FS used Yardley's English Lavender hand soap repeatedly during the day..a clean freak like Prince apparently was..

That's funny cuz several people mention P's hands being soft and there being lotion nearby.

Hmmm...Sounds more like Eau d'Expensive to me.

wink lol cool

Eau d'Hadrien by Annick Goutal is a Citrus Aromatic fragrance for women and men. Eau d'Hadrien was launched in 1981. Eau d'Hadrien was created by Annick Goutal and Francis Camail. The fragrance features cypress, grapefruit, lemon, sicilian lemon, citron, mandarin orange, aldehydes and ylang-ylang. This perfume is the winner of award FiFi Award Hall Of Fame 2008.

Eau du Sud starts with strong citrus, heavy on the bergamot and grapefruit. There are light herbal undertones; the mint and basil are noticeable but subdued. As it dries down, it takes on a slight but distinct smoky note — tobacco leaf, maybe? — and farther on, there is a tinge of sweat hovering underneath the verbena and woods. The smoke and sweat are light enough that I find them distinctive rather than repulsive, but many find Sud too harsh, and although it is unisex, it leans more towards masculine than the other Annick Goutal unisex fragrances.

" Prince surprised a photographer filming a Gayngs concert at First Avenue by sidling up beside him: “He smelled so awesome, like lavender and babies.” ".


I remember reading this account. The dude said that he felt someone leaning on him and he thought, " who leans on the cameraman " and when he turned his head, there was Prince. He said he was so surprised that he stayed still, and the next time he looked, he was gone. I never forgot that description - lavender and babies !

Everything you think is true

The more I remember it, the more I think it could have been this. It smells very similar to what I have experienced and the brand is known for their subtle and natural scents. How close was I? Very close: he had his arm around me and his hand on my waist, his other hand in my right hand... And no, I don't work for l'Occitane lol.


"Created through the distillation of authentic A.O.C. lavender, blended with the peppery, nutmeg scent of burnt wood. A panoramic and complex fragrance, redolent with the rich scents of Provence, in all their ruggedness and mystery. Intended for men, but women love it, too."

I don't know if it helps but I smell of Red Leicester cheese and wine at the moment. I think he liked wine now and then but dunno, was he full on true vegan? Would he have even tried Red Leicester?
