Paco Rabanne: Black XS, Eau de Toilette (Her)

I love perfumes but I have my favourites, my two main ones being Britney Fantasy for daywear and Burberry Weekend for my nights out. My family have recently come back from Spain though and they spoilt me with a brand new bottle of perfume. It was nothing I'd seen before but I recognised the brand being Paco Rabanne as my Dad always wears Paco Rabanne aftershave. I was actually quite pleased I was given something new, I'm making a few changes in life at the moment, coming to terms with who I am and what I want to do for me and my children in life, these changes include me losing some weight, a new home hopefully by the end of this year, a new look, so to add to ...  Read the complete review

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 where I could bask in it's loveliness. But it was the smell that really ...  Read the complete review

This is a great fragrance that my other half gets through like no tomorrow, it's an amazing perfume that impresses every time. the bottle is unlike most containers and is beautifully made, the bottle portrays the scent of the perfume correctly and it's not as expensive as the bigger named products. The scent that this bottle produces is sweet, dark, rich, spicy and sexy. It's not to strong and you can smell it for days, it's a very comforting and memorable scent that is a pleasure to your nose. whilst the target audience is obviously aimed at a younger audience, it is more of an "autumn/winter" scented perfume that anyone ...  Read the complete review

My brothers girlfriend works for a well known perfume shop, a few months before christmas she brought in a small bag of testers for me and my mum to fight over! we split them evenly between us (about 4 of each kind) and off i went home to make the house stink of perfume for a sniff!! Sprayed a few and nothing really cought my attention (quite a few cought my throat though!) but then i sprayed this one and thought it was absolutely gorgeous. just my kind of smell. So asked for it for my christmas and got it. It costs about £20 odd for the 50ml bottle from some online retailers so i think thats pretty good!! the bottle its self is simple and ...  Read the complete review

I got this perfume for Christmas and since then I just can't get enough of it and now I wouldn't consider wearing anything else for a special night out. The red and black gloss bottle which has a rose shape detail and white writing looks great and what's inside is even more impressive. Black XS is soft and floral fragrance which is also intense. The fragrance conveys a delicate yet sophisticated scent. I have also used Ultraviolet by Paco Robanne for the last few years and that also has the same fragrance intensity. Before a night out I like to have a strong all-over fragrance that will last me through the night to the early hours, ...  Read the complete review
