Ultraviolet
Rabanne's Ultraviolet is an eau de parfum launched in 1999, and it is built around a violet heart that reads as powdery, floral and warm at once. Black pepper and apricot open the scent with a bright, slightly spicy sweetness, while the middle develops into a soft rose and jasmine floral softened by violet. The base settles into a warm, creamy depth that draws on vanilla, amber and patchouli, with a dry woody edge that keeps the finish from becoming too sweet.
The character is confident and a little unconventional, sitting somewhere between a classic floral and a gourmand. It has the warmth of a spiced vanilla and the polish of a powdery violet, so it feels refined without being quiet. Many wearers will find it suits evenings and special occasions, though its balance of sweetness and spice also makes it easy to wear to work or out with friends. It tends to carry well and is generally noticeable across a room, and it usually lasts well into the day.
Ultraviolet is particularly suited to the cooler months and to spring and summer evenings, when its warmer notes feel most at home. It is a good choice for anyone who likes a bold, expressive floral with a warm, slightly sweet finish.
