After the popularity of Paco Rabanne's hit fragrance Black XS for Him, Black XS for Her was formulated in 2007 and has proven to be just as popular. While some believe that it has quite a Unisex scent, the perfume as a whole is the right balance of all things spicy, sweet and delicious.
Opening with a spicy-sweetness thanks to the inclusion of Cranberry, Pink Pepper and Tamarind Black XS for Her is pleasantly balanced and well-crafted from the first spray. It quickly becomes a more rounder, well defined perfume when the floral heart pushes its way through. Mixed in among the florals hides a helping of cocoa blossom to give it a mouthwatering, delicious scent. The cocoa note comes in and out but provides a gentle caramel, foodie note that guarantees multiple reaches for the inside of your wrist for a cheeky sniff.
The dry-down continues this foodie theme with Vanilla being one of the predominant notes. Patchouli and Massoia Wood are also included to add to its darker, spicier personality. It is during the dry-down that the unisex side of the perfume is more prevalent but it just as wearable and enjoyable during this time as it was during the opening, initial moments.
While it smells lovely and has been enjoyed by both the female and male staff here at Plush Folly, it doesn't last an exceptionally long time and the silage while wearing it, isn't great either.
