xs paco rabanne updated version 18/04/2011

User recommends the product

Advantages great fragrance
Disadvantages n/a

I discovered XS by Paco Rabanne some years ago when I was given it as a present and it was a lovely fragrance, I was then going away on holiday and I was shopping around and the airport in duty free at the fragrances as I like to keep a wide range of fragrances so that I do not get bored or over use one fragrance. I then noticed that they have now released an XS Black perfume which I sampled and purchased immediately. This perfume is a great sweet smelling scent with floral notes to it, the scent is suited to all occasions and was reasonably priced. I have since been looking around online to ... more

Advantages staying power, you can still use it for your toilet
Disadvantages staying power (till death parts us)

hi everyone, I'm gonna talk to you about black xs, which i received as a present few months ago. Its an oriental woody scent. Black xs of paco rabanne is definitely my worst perfume.! do u remember D and G light blue? in fact it's the same but in a little more fruity, woody and XS of amber. The similarities are so obvious that it screams "NO CREATIVITY" !! I also hate the green apple and strawberry scents, because i find them to chemical ( again XS) Another con would be the amber scent which is supposed to prove manliness but doesn't at all, on the contrary gives a dirty and artificial effect ... more

Black XS? Yes! 31/10/2008

User recommends the product

Advantages Gorgeous smell
Disadvantages Doesn't last long

I absolutely LOVE this perfume! I got it as a present last christmas, and it remember thinking that it looked like it could be nice! THE BOTTLE. The bottle is a deep pink which fades into black, and the 30ml version (which I had) is just the right shape to fit in your hand (and your handbag!) A rose is embossed into the front, and although it doesn't smell much like a rose, it looks nice! THE SMELL. The fragrance is supposed to start off quite fruity and deepen as you go through the day, into the night. It doesn't change much as I imagined it to do, and you can't really tell because it doesn't ... more

My favourite.. 02/10/2010

User recommends the product

Advantages beautiful, strong, signature smell, nice packaging
Disadvantages don't spray too much.. it is very strong

I have always loved perfume, and I've tried nearly every perfume out there.. at Christmas I had asked for a nice perfume from my boyfriend for Christmas and told him to surprise me. He bought me 50ml of Black XS.. and I absolutely adore it! The perfume has a strong smell.. and would suit an independent, dominant female. It is sweet, yet not sickly.. yet has a small 'masculine' smell to it, sort of 'musty' and when I smell it I think 'mysterious' and 'sensual'. My boyfriend loves it too, and tells me to spray it on me when he sees me (and when he's in the mood, haha). Other people have also ... more

Paco Rabanne XS Pour Me 13/03/2008

User recommends the product

Advantages great fragrance in really chich bottle
Disadvantages a bit strong, but bearable

I have never been a fan of strong fragrances even for a night out in a club. I have always preffered to wear something light, maybe fruity as Davidoff Cool Water or Donna Karen New York Delicious and Red Delicious, but I really enjoyed the male verison of the perfume. My boyfriend got it as I prsent last Christmas and wore it all the time. I loved the way it smelled- sexy and flirtatious. I asked my boyfriend to get me the female version for Valentine`s Day and he did. I wear it all the time now. What captivated me and got me addicted to its smell is that it is full of contrasts, it mixes ... more

Quick review of Paco Rabanne Black XS Pour Elle Eau de Toilette Spray by Fantastica123 28/12/2007

my partner has wore the mens version of this for about a year and i've always commented about how sexy it smells! when i heard the womens one was coming out i was really excited and the television advert created high expectations as it was very glamourous. This fragrance exceeds my expectations and smells sexy and fruity and definitely deserves 10 out of 10! less

My favourite perfume 31/05/2011

User recommends the product

Advantages lovely smell, long lasting, nice bottle
Disadvantages there aren't any!

I really love this perfume. The fragrance is so lovely! You definitely should go into a store and try it - boots tend to have sample sprays you can use. It's completely ideal for nights out and dates etc, but then is also perfect for everyday wear! I personally wear it all the time and it is definitely my favourite perfume. I bought this for the first time at boots in the lead up to christmas as part of a set that came with the matching moisturiser however this meant that the actually perfume bottle was smaller so if I were you I would get the perfume on its own as the bottle is bigger and ... more

one of the best perfumes 15/05/2008

User recommends the product

Advantages gorgeous smell, very good staying power
Disadvantages expensive

Paco Rabanne -Black XS for her is the one of the most gorgeous perfumes i have ever owned. it comes in a cute but quite sensual (sort of heart shaped) dark pink bottle with a rose on the front. at first it smells a bit fruity yet dark and spicy, and as the day goes on ( it lasts quite well too!) it gets spicier and the fruitiness disappears slightly, also the fragrance hardly fades, which i love. the scent lasts for about 8-10 hours, and only starts to fade fter abot 4-5 hours, obviously fading more the more work you're doing as it will come off. however a small 50 ml bottle cost me nearly £30 ... more

feminine and sexy, bewitching fragrance. 25/09/2008

User recommends the product

Advantages fruity, woody, goergeous pink heart bottle with black rose on front
Disadvantages none

I was bought this perfume for christmas and i love it, mine was part of a gift set which included a body lotion. I wear this perfume day or night, I had a smell of a tester in debenhams as it had just come out and i was given a sample, when i got home i squirted some on and could not stop smelling my wrist. When you squirt it you get the smell of pink peppercorn, tamarind blossom and cranberry. Heart notes of black violet, hellebore rose and cacao flower, base notes of Massoia wood with patchouli and tahitian vanilla. All these ingredients make up a beautiful sexy, floral, woody scent that has ... more

Sex in a bottle 04/02/2009

User recommends the product

Advantages Gorgeous smell, pretty bottle
Disadvantages Costs a fair bit, but so does every perfume

After hours (literally hours) of walking around Fenwick's perfume department, armed with about a hundred of those little bits of card they give you to spray the perfume on (which all smelt worryingly similar), I was worn to a-ravelling and was ready to either pick one almost at random or give up and go home but then suddenly I found it. This absolute diamond in the rough that was different from every other perfume in that damned place. For one thing, the bottle is gorgeous. A lovely shape and a beautiful deep purpley colour, I loved it the moment I saw it, and wanted it atop my dressing table ... more
