Ultraviolet Liquid Crystal Man

The hiss of an espresso machine two seconds before the cup arrives, blending the sharpness of mint with the warmth of amber and a hint of earthy moss.

The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2003 by Rabanne, Ultraviolet Liquid Crystal Man is an aromatic fragrance that captures the essence of modernity and freshness. The composition opens with a bright burst of mint and mandarin orange, bringing a crisp, invigorating energy to the forefront. Sea notes add a marine touch, creating a sense of cool clarity and purity. As the scent evolves, coriander introduces a fresh-spicy nuance that contrasts beautifully against the warm amber base. Oakmoss adds depth, grounding the fragrance with its earthy, mossy undertones.

How to wear it

Apply this fragrance to your pulse points — it's designed to stay close to skin rather than project widely. The top notes will fade within an hour or so, but the warm amber base will linger throughout the day.
