Ultraviolet Man Colours of Summer

The hiss of an espresso machine two seconds before the cup arrives, in a café where sunlight streams through windows onto polished wood tables.

The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2006, Ultraviolet Man Colours of Summer by Rabanne is a Woody Aromatic fragrance that embodies the essence of summer's transitional moments. The composition opens with a bright burst of Pink Grapefruit, which cuts through the air like a refreshing splash, before settling into Cedar and Amber notes that provide warmth and depth. Oakmoss adds an earthy touch while Musk rounds out the base, creating a scent that is both fresh and enveloping.

How to wear it

Apply one or two sprays to your pulse points and allow it to settle for about five minutes. The Pink Grapefruit top note is bright but fleeting, so rely on the woody and musky base notes that carry the scent throughout the day.
