Phantom
Lemon hits first in Rabanne Phantom Eau de Toilette Gift Set, bright and citric, before lavender takes the centre with a clean aromatic bite. Vanilla gathers underneath and warms everything above it, and vetiver gives the finish an earthy, lightly smoky dryness. The fragrance is built on four materials and spends its time moving between the cold end of them and the warm one.
Three tiers with one line running through them. The lemon top is short and bright, the lavender heart is clean and aromatic, and the base of vanilla and vetiver takes over for the rest of the wear. The vetiver is what makes the vanilla worth paying attention to, adding an earthy, smoky dryness that cuts the sugar before it can settle. Around that structure sit a fresh spicy edge and a faint fruitiness, both of them keeping the citrus and the vanilla from standing apart from each other. The result reads fresh and aromatic for the first stretch and woody and warm for the longer one.
Phantom dates from 2021 and was composed by four perfumers working together: Anne Flipo, Dominique Ropion, Juliette Karagueuzoglou and Loc Dong. Rabanne has made fragrance since 1969, when Calandre, a metallic rose presented in a metal and glass bottle, followed Monsieur Rabanne's debut couture collection of 1966. The house still takes its fragrance identity from that work in metal.
Longevity is moderate and sillage is moderate, which means a scent that stays near the skin and keeps its reach short. That makes it as suited to professional wear as to an ordinary afternoon or an evening. Expect to notice it on yourself for a good stretch. The fresh opening and the warm finish hold up across all four seasons, bright enough for spring and summer and substantial enough for autumn and winter. This version is sold as a gift set.
