Paco Rabanne is known for bold, statement-making fragrances, and Ultraviolet follows suit with an unapologetic floral oriental that doesn't shy away from spice and warmth.

The opening hits with apricot and Brazilian rosewood alongside coriander, pepper, and pimento, creating an immediately spiced and fruity impression. The heart settles into a classic white floral arrangement of jasmine, rose, and violet that feels both romantic and slightly creamy. The base layers in amber, cedar, patchouli, and vanilla, grounding the composition with woody depth and sweetness that lingers without turning overly sugary. The overall effect is a warm, spiced floral that leans oriental without abandoning its floral roots, balancing sophistication with sensuality.

Ultraviolet works best for someone who appreciates florals with backbone, wanting something that reads feminine but with enough spice and woody structure to feel complex. It's suited to cooler months or evening wear when you want a fragrance that makes an impression without being shy. This is a fragrance for The Romantic, The Hedonist, and The Homesteader.

Top · 0–30 min
Apricot
Apricot
Velvety, warm, and slightly honeyed, apricot is the most sensual of the stone fruits in perfumery. It has a jammy richness alongside its freshness, and a slightly almond-like facet from its stone. Pairs beautifully with white florals and musks in compositions that want warmth and femininity without heaviness.
Brazilian Rosewood
Brazilian Rosewood
The heartwood of Aniba rosaeodora produces an oil once used extensively in fine perfumery for its warm, woody, slightly rosy, and faintly camphorous character. Brazilian rosewood is now endangered and heavily restricted, making it extremely rare. Synthetic alternatives are used today, but the original had a unique beauty that modern substitutes approximate.
Coriander
Coriander
Warm, spicy, and faintly citrusy, coriander seed smells quite different from the green herb, with a dry, woody warmth and a slight floral quality. It adds a spiced, slightly exotic character to masculine fragrances without the sharpness of pepper or the sweetness of vanilla. A supporting spice note that adds complexity.
Pepper
Pepper
The most essential spice note in perfumery, encompassing the dry, woody heat of black pepper and its many relatives. Pepper adds edge, lift, and a masculine vitality to fragrances without sweetness. It is the note that stops a composition from feeling comfortable and safe, adding a confident, assertive character.
Pimento
Pimento
Heart · 30 min – 3 hrs
Jasmine
Jasmine
Intoxicating, heady, and slightly animalic, jasmine is one of the few flowers that smells as rich in a bottle as it does climbing a garden wall at dusk. It has an almost fleshy, indolic quality that stops it reading as purely 'clean.' Jasmine is a workhorse in both feminine and masculine perfumery, adding depth and soul.
Rose
Rose
The queen of floral notes and the most-used ingredient in fine perfumery. Real rose is simultaneously velvety, honeyed, and slightly spicy, nothing like the synthetic candy version. Depending on the variety used, it can anchor a composition or drift through it like a ghost, adding warmth without dominating.
Violet
Violet
Sweet, powdery, and faintly green, violet sits between floral and earthy in a way that feels distinctly old-world glamorous. The leaf and the flower smell quite different: the flower is sugary and delicate, while violet leaf is fresh and slightly vegetal. Together they create a note that feels both nostalgic and current.
Base · 3–12 hrs
Amber
Amber
A warm, resinous accord rather than a single ingredient, amber is typically built from labdanum, benzoin, and vanilla to create a rich, honeyed, almost solar warmth. It's the quintessential base-note family, adding a comforting richness that makes fragrances feel complete. The difference between a fragrance feeling cold and feeling alive.
Cedar
Cedar
Patchouli
Patchouli
Dense, earthy, and darkly sweet, patchouli is the scent of damp soil and dried herbs with an almost chocolatey richness. It polarizes people because in high concentrations it's overwhelming, but as a supporting note it adds depth and longevity that almost nothing else can match. The backbone of countless oriental and chypre fragrances.
Vanilla
Vanilla
Warm, sweet, and universally appealing, vanilla is to fragrance what salt is to cooking. Real vanilla is complex and slightly smoky, though most perfumery vanilla is synthetic and reads as clean, sweet, and creamy. It slows the evaporation of other notes and is the reason certain fragrances feel like a second skin.
