Black XS L'Excès pour lui

His love of couture and fashion was passed on to him by his mother, who was a première main at Balenciaga. Francisco Rabaneda y Cuervo became Paco Rabanne in 1965, when his accessories collection opened the doors of fashion to him. In 1973, Paco Rabanne launched his first fragrance, Paco Rabanne pour Homme, which became very famous. In 2012, the house presented Black XS, l’excès pour lui, a fragrance directly inspired by the world of rock.

The rock attitude according to Paco Rabanne

Well known for his unconventional side, Paco Rabanne surprises and innovates, both in his creations and in his fragrances. He was the first couturier to incorporate metal into a dress. He likes to work with gold, but also other materials such as cardboard, steel, sponge or even paper! His rebellious spirit is everywhere. It is this spirit that led him to imagine Black XS in 2005. In love with freedom, the Black XS man is not lacking in charm. Faced with the success of Black XS, Paco Rabanne offered several flankers, including Black XS, l’excès pour lui. While it remains as rebellious as its predecessor, the rock’n’roll spirit of Black XS, l’excès pour lui is here taken to its peak. However, do not trust appearances, for although it is rebellious with a gothic look, Black XS, l’excès pour lui is in reality an adventurer with a tender heart.

The hypnotic notes of Black XS, l’Excès pour lui

Black XS, l’excès pour lui is defined as a woody aromatic fragrance. According to the house, Black XS, l’excès pour lui is the symbol of a rock style, elegant and ultra contemporary. Black XS, l’excès pour lui opens with fruity notes accompanied by the striking freshness of lemon and lavender. The heart combines an ozonic accord with the woody-smoky tonality of cypriol. The base is more oriental and blends amber wood with patchouli. As for the bottle, it also plays the rock star! Lacquered in black and silver, the bottle displays a completely hypnotic gradient and a 100% virile attitude. Paco Rabanne pushes insolence further with the presence of a skull combined with a gothic rose, drawn in a varnished filigree on the box, but placed like a piercing on the bottle. Rock, rebellious, but so free, the fragrance of Black XS, l’excès pour lui is meant to be desired like a fantasy.

After the huge success of Black XS, Paco Rabanne decided to offer flankers. While Black XS, l’excès pour lui remains as rebellious as ever, the rock spirit has been taken to its peak. The composition is very original and daring. This aromatic-woody fragrance becomes irresistible for all those who wear it.
