...a new fragrance attitude’ by Paco Rabanne and said to be ‘an inventive fragrance’ by retailers. I’m lucky enough to own the 80ml – eau de parfum vapoisateur natural spray (largest one of the lot!) This comes packaged in a 3 inch square by 4 inch tall box which is a gorgeous shiny deep purple colour which illuminates an almost rainbow effect when it catches the light – much more interesting than your average box ...

Review of Paco Rabanne Ultraviolet

...me it was Ultraviolet by Paco Rabanne. She said it smelled strong as she had just applied it and liked to spray plenty on. That summer , every time I worked with her , I would think 'I must get some of that perfume' and so, eventually, I did. ULTRAVIOLET EAU DE PARFUM * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Eventually I bought a large Eau de Parfum, when it was reduced in a Debenham's sale.

...by the design house of Paco Rabanne in 2000, ULTRAVIOLET perfume is classified as a refreshing, oriental, floral perfume. This feminine scent possesses a blend of an exotic and modern oriental with lower notes of vanilla and amber. Ultraviolet perfume is recommended for office wear'. 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 ...

Review of Paco Rabanne Ultraviolet

...up Ultraviolet. "Ultraviolet by Paco Rabanne celebrates the intimacy and reality of a woman's life as she and her family truly live it. This fresh fragrance has notes of bergamot, chamomile, sage, osmanthus, Bulgarian rose, jasmine, white lily, carnation, freesia, amber, sandalwood and peach." The perfume itself has a very sweet smell, I love sweet smelling perfumes although I know that they aren't to some people's tastes. It is quite strong when ...
...it. I am trying to think of a way to describe this perfume but you try describing one of your favourite perfumes to someone who has never smelt it before!!!!!!! I will have a go though. I think this smells quite floral and girly but kind of seductive and sexy too, it makes me feel kind of naughty and sexy when I wear it. But as I always say if you want to smell it for yourself take a trip into your local perfume store and have a quick spray to see ...

Review of Paco Rabanne Ultraviolet

...bag, it was Ultraviolet by Paco Rabanne. My first thought was, oh doesn't that look fun! The bottle was really unusual, it was round in shape and the top half was silver and the bottom was glass with pink liquid inside. Around the middle of the bottle was a thin band of rubber, and I realised that this was the spray. You push down on the silver top of the bottle and the rubber goes down, which results in the perfume spraying out! I was like a kid ...
...was...........yeah, you're right, Ultraviolet by Paco Rabanne. I've got two bottles of the red now. I'm not sure what the difference is between the red and the purple, but I decided to stick to the red one. The perfume cost me £26.50 on the boat, but I have now seen it for £33 in Boots. This is for the 50ml bottle of Eau de Parfum spray. I actually went into Boots in Durham on my dinner break today, and I had a look at the prices, and the bottle ...

...bother), amount in the bottle, paco rabanne logo, a flammability warning and the company website. At the time of writing, the section about this particular scent on the website was under construction. Inside the first box is another, white, box-within-a-box, and inside this is the bottle. You can see the bottle on the product picture, but it’s kind of like a ball, which was half plastic, and half glass with a ring of rubber joining them, and someone ...
...you push on it to spray the scent then the bottom half is made of glass so you can see the (surprise surprise) purple perfume inside. This looks really stylish and classy but I like to take perfume out with me and so I always have to carry it around in the box; otherwise it squirts itself in my bag! I’m reliably informed that the scent has notes of: “red, yellow, (personally I thought they were only colours but apparently not) orange pimento, amber, ...

Review of Paco Rabanne Ultraviolet

I've been wearing ultraviolet for so long now that I can't remember why I first bought it...I do remember that I graduated in my late teens from the EDT to the EDP and that that was one of the better decisions I made in my late teens. The reasonable priced Ultraviolet comes in a stylish, easy to use bottle. But others before me have discussed the packaging in much greater detail, I prefer to discuss talk about the important thing. The smell. The ...
...overpowering in any way, there's nothing that I at least can put my finger on as saying it smells like. And that in my opinion is it's strength. There's a subtlety to it. When you smell it, you pick up a variety of fragrances and just can't quite figure out what they are. But maybe that's just me (sitting sniffing myself as I type). All I know is, I adore the fragrance, and I have never ever had as many compliments about a fragrance as I have when ...

Review of Paco Rabanne Ultraviolet

...it was Ultra Violet by Paco Rabanne so I asked for a squirt and fell in love with it. Ultra Violet was launced by Paco Rabanne in 1999 and comes in a round bottle with a glass bottom and a silver top, around the middle is a white soft plastic/rubbery type band where the spray comes out from, you just hold the bottle in your hand and press down on the silver top two or three squirts does the trick. The outer box is a plastic modular shape and is purple ...
...on it. The smell is very strong when first applied but soon settles down so I would really recommend it as an evening fragrence, a good couple of sprays will last you all evening. It dries quickly and is not sticky unlike some other fragrences. It is a refreshing oriental fragrence with a hint of vanilla and amber but also reminds me of the sweets parma violets and also a cross between the Yves Sainy Laurent fragrence Paris and Christian Dior Poison. ...

Review of Paco Rabanne Ultraviolet

...my astonishment inside was the paco rabanne ultraviolet giftset... with a damaged box! Inside the gift set was a 30ml eau de parfum spray and a body lotion.

This perfume is definately something you can wear in the day time or at ...

Review of Paco Rabanne Ultraviolet

Well as you can probably tell from the title. I LOVE THIS PERFUME! I first tried it about 3 years ago when I caught a whiff in a magazine add. I had never smelt anything like it before and it is such a disctinct smell that you can tell when someone's wearing it. That's what I love about it, lots of perfumes smell " a bit like that one" and " a bit like this one", but ultraviolet doesn't . There's not one perfume I can say it's like. THE SMELL The ...
...so light. The smell is rich and full of aroma. It's a warm smell, which fills your nostrils with excitement and leaves as a sweet undertone, which remains in the background. It is a sexy smell and I love to wear it for special occassions, but I love it so much I tend to wear it all the time! PRICE I've seen the 30ml EDP bottles in Body care for £17.99 and in The Perfume Store for £19.99 and in Boots for around £23. It also comes in 50ml and 80ml. ...

Review of Paco Rabanne Ultraviolet

I absolutely adore paco rabanne perfumes for women. I currently have ultra violet, XS and Elle. I love them all. The thing with paco rabanne is all their perfumes seem to be fresh and sexy without being overpowering. People always comment on what a nice smell they are. I first came across ultra violet when a friend brought it me for christmas, I already had XS and really liked them both. XS is partically well priced now a days I think this is due ...
...I have found that paco rabanne perfumes make ideal birthday and christmas presents, buying perfume for someone else is also an issue as we all like different scents. For the few people I have brought these for they have all liked them, I think it is down to the fact that the scent is light but fresh. the scent always last well. If you have ultra violet then also consider trying XS and Elle. ...

The perfume has a mixed fragrance of sandal wood or rather of those aroma therapic oil scent that makes you feel so relaxed. It is not light nor heavy setting. Just right for any women who wants to feel relieve of stress. Good for a night sleep as well. It is one of ...

Review of Paco Rabanne Ultraviolet

I first bought this perfume in an airport duty free shop when I had allowed enough time before a flight to really look around and try a good few perfumes. What first attracted me was the purple box - a stylish, shiny cube with the promise of dark nights in a club somewhere I shouldn't be! The next thing was the unusual bottle. Ultraviolet looks like it's been designed for Star Trek crew because the bottle has a spaceship look to it (hence the title ...
...funky club music and that weird bottle shape....!). You have to be a little familar with some seriously funky 70s dance music to appreciate the Mothership Connection ref - blame Parliament and Funkadelic, George Clinton and Bootsy Collins, ok! (particularly George Clinton, bless him). Anyway, you don't need a transporter to enjoy this scent because a few whiffs and you will be seriously transported elsewhere. It is, in a word, intoxicating. It has ...

Review of Paco Rabanne Ultraviolet

I first smelt this perfume 4 years ago and although I liked it, it was a bit unusual. However I have since been through my rebellious teenage stage and like the unusual. I have been wearing this perfume for 3 years now and haven't tired of it, in fact i love it even more. Another great thing is that i've never known another person who wears it, so when I do wear it I feel like an individual. It is really rich and warm and really fruity, this is ...
...5 different ones! Including Gucci, Hugo Boss, and Armarni. It's a really sexy smell and with all the spices and fruitiness it isn't overpowering either. I also noticed that it had excellent staying power out of all my others, it's the best. The bottle is so cool although quite technical. It is a little pricey, you could always make use of the duty free shops an your next holiday. This perfume is everything a girl could want in a perfume and I can't ...
