Reviews of Black XS ![]() martinijo EnglandShow all reviews | I didn't think much of this, too sweet and not as good as 1 million, (which is also a bit too sweet for me.) Smelled more like the standard xs in the dry down but it had almost disappeared by then. 28th December, 2011. |
![]() rs132 Show all reviews | Far too sweet on the top- the massive hit of strawberry makes me smell like I've spilled a slush puppie all over my face. I don't mind fruitiness but this is too much. The sweetness does mature and some wood does come through with a hint of patchouli that admittedly blends nicely with the more rounded sweetness in the drydown which gives a wintery feeling- think sweet incense. The "goth" branding would suggest to me a dark smokiness, but there just isn't enough of it for my liking. 15th December, 2011. |
![]() SwePeter Show all reviews | I wanted a clubbing that wasn't too sophisticated. I would describe this scent as sweet, strawberries and amber. It's definately for the younger crowd under 35 years old, perfect for people between 18-25 years old. I think it's sexy and it smells good. Stays on me for about 8 hours. Projects well the first 2 hours. 25th November, 2011. |
![]() dollars&scents United StatesShow all reviews | Black XS by Paco Rabanne - This wonderfully exotic fragrance opens with a citrus duet of lemon and kalamanzi, commingling with sage and tagete. I am not quite sure if the spice and marigolds work on the citrus, but a tangy stawberry becomes sensorially incarnate. The sweet heart with its cinnamon, black cardamom, tolu balm and praline wrests control of this pseudo-strawberry, and excises the bitterness yielding a dark, sweet and spicy concoction. The eager base, with its woods and amber, as well as its hint of patchouli, evicts the fruitiness, and forms a warm and inviting drydown. The longevity for this daring fragrance is good, while its projection is average for a close to the skin scent. 14th November, 2011. |
| Jack Hunter United KingdomShow all reviews | This is a vile synthetic sick inducing fragrance that I would not accept even if it was offered for free. With hundreds of fragrances to choose from buying this one would be scraping the bottom of the barrel indeed. 29th September, 2011. |
| blood-orange AustraliaShow all reviews | "Knowing the desire of some women to wear men’s fragrances, it can be said that no woman would dare to wear Black XS despite its soft and warm woodsy notes and even sweet notes of the drydown", (taken from description above). Well if that's what you think, bring it! 4th September, 2011. |
