The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Black XS L'Exces for Her, launched by Rabanne in 2012 and created by perfumer Émilie Coppermann, is a bold Oriental Floral fragrance that balances fresh spiciness with warm vanilla and woody notes. The opening of black pepper and neroli introduces an invigorating contrast to the heart's rich jasmine and rose. As the scent evolves, it reveals a luxurious base of night-blooming cereus, vanille, and cashmere wood, creating an enveloping warmth that is both intimate and alluring.

How to wear it

Apply this fragrance to pulse points and let it develop over time; the initial spiciness fades into a rich, warm base that lingers throughout the day. Best for cooler evenings when the woody and vanilla notes can fully unfold.
