Rabanne - Phantom Eau de Toilette

Scent Profile & Character

Paco Rabanne Phantom is a futuristic woody-aromatic scent that channels confidence through a unique balance of freshness and creamy warmth. It opens with creamy lavender and zesty lemon, offering a bright, smooth, invigorating start. The mid-layer mingles herbal and aromatic notes—apple, patchouli, smoke, and earthy rhubarb-like accords—adding intriguing depth. The dry-down settles into a comforting base of woody vanilla, vetiver, and powdery smoothness, delivering a gentle, modern masculine elegance.
This cologne is contemporary yet approachable, with a clean, tech-inspired twist on classic aromatic freshness.
