Advantages: nice smell

Disadvantages: not the most striking scent

I had not heard much about Paco Rabanne, until I heard of Black XS, initially i heard about it from a friend, who said he had been given it and was not really a fan, saying that it smelt too sickly for him. I tried some of his and thought whilst it was a sweet smelling fragrance it was not sickly, but used in moderation is really good.

As with most perfume the packaging is probably what you spend most of your money on, and in this case it looks pretty stylish, with a sleek black cover. Recently I was given a gift set with it so it came with some shower gel which is pretty good as well.

I think that Black XS is an "every day" fragrance, that is to say for going out of an evening or on a date or whatever. However, I think that if it was a more formal occasion a sharper fragrance might be what i would choose. However that is for each person to decide.

Black XS in short is a good fragrance, being quite subtle compared to some other brands out there, and not too expensive either. However, it is not the most striking smell out there, so if you want to stand out it may be better to choose a different fragrance.

Summary: good fragrance!
