Paco Rabanne has launched the Black XS (for women) in 2007 – two years after the launch of the men version Black XS for men (2005). The feminine fragrance has been created by the perfumers Emilie Coppermann and Mark Buxton. The advertising slogan says ‘modern and rebellious princesses'.

A punch in the face, followed by smooth and feminine, and then a trail of an aphrodisiac sounds like the making for a good night for any woman. Black XS for her by Paco Rabanna is a stunning scent.

One of the things that became clear to me as I worked on the recent 100 Fragrances Every Perfumista Should Try article was just how many perfume brands are entirely off my radar.

If Armani Privé Ambre Soie could be envisioned as richer, sharper, deeper, with the warmth of amber underscored by darkly resinous woods, Paco Rabanne Black XS might be the fragrance that such contemplation would paint.

This scent is just a lovely warm scent. Like an unusual oriental fragrance in a way. With sweetness to it. However...it can be overpowering so you should maybe to one spray in the air and walk into it...or spray your finger tip and dab on your pulse points.

Omg! I'm so stoked to find my favorite.Ive been out for so long,and had to buy it way out in mcminville or way over in Troutdale at the Perfume house or perfumania.

Another synthetic concoction from a producer of normally fabulous perfumes. Whatever created the salted vanilla note makes me swiftly queasy and needing air. One spray was enough to discourage a second.
