Whether in the world of fashion or that of perfumery, Paco Rabanne has always shown itself to be highly avant-garde.
In 2021, arriving like a true UFO in the world of men's fragrances, Phantom surprises the public and is on its way to becoming the third great olfactory pillar of the Paco Rabanne house! Phantom combines science and the world of luxury. With it, artificial intelligence is put at the service of creativity. Presented in a robot-shaped bottle, it is also considered the first connected fragrance in history. Indeed, all one needs to do is pair it with a smartphone to be projected into a genuine virtual world. But what about its composition?
The bright and refreshing opening of Phantom by Paco Rabanne
Phantom is an avant-garde fragrance, which embodies on its own all of Paco Rabanne's boldness. With it, men overflow with ideas and do not hesitate to devise unexpected creations. This sharp spirit and untamable energy are embodied by refreshing, zesty ingredients. Phantom by Paco Rabanne notably contains lemon. Its freshness is amplified by mandarin, while coriander adds a spicier touch to the whole. As if straight from Nordic forests, pine reinforces its woody masculinity while preserving this airy, invigorating touch.
The more floral and aromatic heart of Phantom
At its heart, Phantom by Paco Rabanne uses one of the rare flowers popular in the world of men's fragrances: lavender. Its fresh, slightly retro breath very often recalls the scent of barbershops of yesteryear. Aromatic to the fullest and Mediterranean, lavender is worked here in an unusual way, creamier than usual. Enhanced with jasmine, it becomes more opulent and lights up with white flowers. Tea, for its part, gives the whole a more refined character while further airing out this composition.
The musky, woody base of Phantom
Finally, at its base, Phantom by Paco Rabanne gradually reveals all its virility. For this, it contains several woods. Virginia cedar gives it a very dry, persistent breath. Thanks to it, Phantom by Paco Rabanne displays excellent tenacity and does not fade easily. Tonka bean, for its part, gives it a more toasted, almost almond-like facet. Sandalwood wraps the whole in its creamy, milky facet. Finally, musk amplifies its animalic sensuality. The result is a long-lasting feel good sensation. Phantom by Paco Rabanne stimulates self-confidence and seems to possess a magnetic power of seduction!
Created in collaboration with IFF-LMR Naturals, Phantom by Paco Rabanne contains several ingredients of sustainable, organic and responsible origin. It is thus gentler on the body while placing particular importance on its impact on the environment. In terms of perfumers, Phantom by Paco Rabanne brings together four great names in perfumery: Anne Flipo, Dominique Ropion, Loc Dong and Juliette Karagueuzoglou.
