The story behind the bottle.
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.
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.
