Phantom Elixir, launched by Rabanne in 2025 and crafted by perfumers Anne Flipo, Juliette Karagueuzoglou, and Paul Guerlain, is a Woody Aquatic fragrance that captures the essence of Paris at night. The scent opens with Sea Notes and Mineral notes, creating a crisp marine accord that feels like walking along the Seine under the city's twinkling lights. As it develops, the richness of Oud adds depth and warmth, while Vanilla Bean softens the blend into a sophisticated elixir.
