pour Homme

It was in 1965 that Paco Rabanne, then Francisco Rabaneda y Cuervo, drew attention with his collection of a line of accessories. The following year, Paco Rabanne presented a collection of a dozen dresses made using heterogeneous materials. In 1969, the house entered perfumery with Calandre, an aldehydic floral that did not meet with much success at the time. It was Paco Rabanne pour Homme in 1973 that set the house on the path to triumph.

Paco Rabanne, 100% masculine

Here, the man embodies absolute virility. Tall, broad-shouldered, with a dark yet endearing gaze, a confident stride... This is the Paco Rabanne man, who moves through every era with ease. This man is at once young and mature, at once from here and from elsewhere. Paco Rabanne pour Homme is a timeless fragrance that has won the hearts of every generation of men. Paco Rabanne pour Homme is a concentrate of masculinity, of virility. Charismatic and bold, the Paco Rabanne man stands out through his natural charm. If Paco Rabanne pour Homme reflects the modern man, in 1973 it appeared as a true olfactory revolution.

Paco Rabanne pour Homme, the first fougère-aromatic fragrance

Created by perfumer Jean Martel, Paco Rabanne pour Homme was a minor olfactory revolution for its time. Before it, men's fragrances favored fresh, lemony scents. Paco Rabanne pour Homme is the first men's fragrance built around an aromatic fougère. Paco Rabanne pour Homme opens on an aromatic bouquet of rosemary, clary sage, laurel, and lavender. This is paired with the freshness of bergamot. The heart of Paco Rabanne pour Homme carries geranium and clove. The base is bold and ultra-sensual through the combination of oakmoss and white musks, harmoniously blended with a honeyed tobacco accord. As for the bottle, it too is ultra-masculine, shaped like a whisky flask. Simple and virile, the bottle echoes the 100% virile essence of Paco Rabanne pour Homme.

The release of Paco Rabanne pour Homme launched a new olfactory family, that of aromatic fougères. This fragrance remains, to this day, one of men's favorite fragrances. Paco Rabanne pour Homme has stood the test of time without aging a day. Its essence is stunningly bold, as is its whisky-flask-shaped bottle. For a first men's fragrance, it is a remarkable achievement.
