Towards the end, you can smell a warm note of cashmere wood and delicate vanilla. Its seductive floral heart consists of petals of passionate rose and exotic jasmine. Its primary wave of freshness is brought by bitterish neroli with the necessary amount of courage provided by sparkling pepper. Its combination of fruits, flowers, spices, and woody tones will bring some fun and excitement.


Black XS L'Exces for Her is simply a unique fragrance you will never grow bored with! Its round shape, massive black lid, and a skull-shaped locket show that it's no perfume for fragile girls, and its black box with tattoo motifs is another part of its overall rebellious concept. Paco Rabanne put its uncommon cocktail of excitement and originality into a special glass flacon. Black XC L'Exces for Her is suitable for colder days, as it stirs your blood and warms up even the cloudiest of days. It belongs among floral-oriental fragrances designed for women who enjoy an unconventional lifestyle. I’ve been using L’Exces during the day as an office fragrance and I’m very much looking forward to using it during warmer weather to see how it shapes up.Paco Rabanne Black XS L'Exces for Her is a major new perfume launched in 2012. I’ll leave the marketing decisions to the big companies but it doesn’t seem to fit with the fresh, tropical sorbet-like fragrance Black XS L’Exces is. It was surprising that such a scent came from a bottle with a skull hanging off a metal chain. The initial opening has great projection but then calms down and stays close to the skin. Initially, after the aromatic citrusy almost tropical juice opening, it changes to reveal an aromatic woodiness which then settles and lasts a decent amount of time, I found anywhere from 6 hours plus. It’s a fresh and fruity scent but with the underlying woodiness helps to give it the richness which defines the fragrance.Īs the name suggests, it is a longer lasting fragrance and this is needed to give the middle notes time to develop. It’s refreshing, and after a couple of sprays I’m hit with a strong note of pineapple which then settles down into a more citrusy, aromatic smell. I re-discovered L’Exces at the end of last year and have been using it once or twice a week. It was interesting, intriguingly different but like a fleeting holiday romance, nothing serious happened. I remember trying this initially on a blotter. Paco Rabanne describes this as a scent for a rock man with sensuality, with an irreverent and rebellious attitude.

This brings me (rather belatedly) to BlackXS L’Exces Eau de Toilette Intense for Him, which is a fragrance fronted by Iggy Pop and launched a full year ago.

Male fragrances that were either intense or an Eau de Parfum were on my radar. Both good fragrances, but I wanted to mix it up!Īfter trying many a tester, I landed on Dior Homme Intense, an Eau de Parfum version of the normal Dior Homme. I felt that as I worked for a perfume company, it was time to evolve my choices along from CK One and Diesel Only The Brave. My interest in intense-labelled fragrances happened by accident as I was browsing through reviews trying to work out what should be my next fragrance. The other, and my usual view when I’m at work, is that it’s something being highly concentrated. Intense can be defined in several ways based on the intended meaning or the context of its use, and the two that come to mind when it comes to fragrance is being something that is possessing or displaying a distinctive feature to an extreme degree.
