Mesh Metal by Rabanne, launched in 2024 and crafted by perfumer Fanny Bal, is a complex Oriental fragrance that plays with contrasts. The bright citrus notes of lime and bigarade create an initial freshness, which is soon enveloped by the warmth of ambergris and white florals. This composition is neither overly sweet nor overpowering; instead, it offers a subtle interplay between green, aromatic elements and animalic undertones that add depth and intrigue.

Application Tips
Mesh Metal is best applied in small quantities; its aromatic and citrus notes are bright but fleeting. The ambergris base develops gradually over time, so allow it to settle on your skin for at least an hour before stepping out. It's particularly effective in the evening when the green and animalic notes come into their own.
Fanny Bal
Founding perfumer · 68 fragrances
Fanny Bal is a force of nature. As Dominique Ropion’s apprentice, she has access to the finest raw materials in the industry and some of its best-kept secrets; and yet, she is constantly surprising her seniors, first at ISIPCA, then at IFF, with her own independent initiatives and rigorous experimentation, both testaments to her flourishing talent. She has shown everyone, including Frédéric Malle, that she is a young perfumer to be reckoned with. Dominique Ropion has said of his pupil that, “curious, tenacious and bold” in both her approach to perfume and as a person, Fanny Bal possesses “all the best qualities to become a great perfumer”.
