Black XS - Paco Rabanne

Remember D & G Light Blue ? Well force a little fruity, and add a more masculine amber woody accord, and you get Black XS. 

The resemblance is so blatant that it's difficult to appreciate such a lack of creativity, if not the audacity to create a perfume as fruity and feminine for a man. But I do not agree that green apple and strawberry, which I find too chemical, which, combined with amber background supposed to give body and masculinity in general, provides an effective dirty, artificial, not at all elegant. 

The visuals complement the logical table: aesthetics biceps tattoos very vulgar and tasteless, which did not fail to attract all young dredgers and tanned body-builder looking for a new masculinity with success since the perfume landed in the top 20 sales in early 2006.
