Ultraviolet Man is an ultra-masculine scent. It is a powerful, refreshing fragrance, full of energy and panache. Virile, robust and extremely sexy, Ultraviolet Man is a modern woodsy scent with a great personality.

On to the important bit, the fragrance itself. I first discovered it a friends house, and have been hooked since that moment.

It has been very well recieved by me, both male and female friends commenting on the scent. It is definately a good pulling tool lads! :p
I find that this fragrance is best worn in the evening, at a meal, or down the pub, and is not really an all day fragrance. I find that the fragrance does last extremely well, I have found that at putting it on at around 6pm, it has lasted right through the night. After a couple of hours the scent mixes very well with your personal scent, and becomes deep and musky. However still keeping the sweetness and crispness.
Prices for this fragrance are around £27 for 50ml, and £37 for 100ml, which is a very good price in my opinion, and could easily get away with being sold at least £10 more, I'd still definately buy it.
Overall, I would recommend this fragrance to young guys, and can ensure it won't disappoint. It gives everything you want in a fragrance: confidence; invigoration; freshness; and importantly, an irresistable scent for ladies, whom will soon be flocking, guaranteed.
Advantages: Use it for any occasion, cheap, delicious and great bottle design! Disadvantages: None whatsoever.
Having used Paco Rabanne Ultraviolet for Women a few years ago and loved it! I purchased the male version for my boyfriend in the hope it was just as good... And it is! It's a very unique scent and lasts all day with only a few sprays. The bottle design is very attractive and simple, unlike many on the market where you squirt your eye before finding the hole! I won't go on about what tones it has in it, because if you're like me, it means nothing! ... ...and makes my boyfriend so kissable! I would say it suits guys from age 17-45, but don't be put off if you're older as it is definitely worth a try! There's nothing quite like it on the market and it's a very reasonable price (check out Cheap Smells, they're super cheap and efficient!) ...

Review of Paco Rabanne Ultraviolet Men
Advantages: It attracts women. Nuff said. Disadvantages: Don't use it when drunk.
Paco Rabanne have a knack for making fragrances for manly men. By which, I mean the kind of stuff found in the cabinet of a man with a lot of chest hair. And lots of scotch. However, Ultraviolet is more for the modern day man. The box is a trendy blue to purple fade with snazzy silvery writing on it. The bottle itself is unique, with a squeezy bit on the side, spraying your chosen smell out of a little nozzle just about the trigger. Prices range ... ...is fairly decent pricing.
The smell...well, I'm limited in my similies (how does something smell "woody"?). The best description I can come up with is manly lavender. It is a deeper smell, in that it will cling to you and stay there for a while without fading. This can be a problem if you tend to sweat, as the smell can go a little stale after a while. Because of this, it is probably best suited to wearing out for an evening. An evening out somehwere ...

Advantages: Great smell, classy, modern, lasting and great value! Disadvantages: None
I was bought this as a gift for Christmas and until then, had not heard of this fragrance.
I was immediately impressed with the packaging and even more so with the bottle itself. It all looks very classy and indeed expensive! The bottle itself has a very unique spray mechanism, a trigger on the side of the bottle, very modern and funky!
When I tested the fragrance, whoa.. It was the first time I had (dare I say it) fallen in love with a fragrance ... ...few years ago! It has a fantastically crisp and slightly sweet scent, certainly not overpowering. This is really fresh: I am not an expert by any means, but have certainly had my fair share of fragrances over the years and have never smelled anything quite like this.
I have warn it to work but prefer wearing it on a night out. It is a very classy scent and certainly seems to last the duration, I often catch whiffs of it several hours after applying.

Advantages: Brilliant Scent and very good price Disadvantages: Use too often --> RUNNING OUT FAST
This is one of my favourite Aftershaves and i have chosen this pretty much every morning before i leave the house. I was given this as a present from my uncle and i just love it. Firstly, I will talk about my first impressions of the product. When i took it out of the box, it seemed like an unusual type of container. It just looks so classy sitting on my table. The spray mechanism is much different to other fragrance bottles, as the fragrance is ... ...part, the scent itself. Gorgeous. Once the fragrance settles the scent it gives off is sweet and not too strong. I asked a few people (girls) what they thought of the smell and they thought it was 'lovely'. I think it is a scent for the younger generation, but i don't want to rule the older people out completely.
Looking at the price of the aftershave now, it is pretty cheap. The cheapest one with Postage and Pakcaging being a fraction under £17 ...

Advantages: Long lasting , fabulous fragrance , suits a variety of ages , great colour Disadvantages: Not cheap , nor a classic , may be heavy for some

Personally I still feel it is a bit heavy for work, but to each his own. I find I cannot smell the vanilla but I agree it definitely has a oriental flavour to it. It smells as if it's floral based but it's definitely not flowery. To me it is a warm, musky sort of perfume.
There is a range of products available for men or women in PacoRabanne's Ultraviolet. They are not the cheapest range around but they are good value and the product is good. It causes no sensitivity on my skin at all .

If I had to find the adjectives to describe Ultraviolet I would say it's sensuous, sexy, warm, in your face,heady , vibrant,youthful and floral. If you've not tried Ultraviolet yet get a squirt next time you pass the perfume counter . You may not like it or like me you may love it. I would say now it's my ...
