XS (2018), from Rabanne was released in 2018. The perfumer behind this creation is Gerard Anthony and Rosendo Mateu. It has the top notes of Bergamot, Lemon, and Mint, middle notes of Coriander, Geranium, and Juniper Berries, and base notes of Oakmoss, Rosemary, and Sandalwood.
I really hope this doesn’t disappoint because it’s got everything going for it, the legacy of the original XS need not be ruined by some dodgy reformulation/reimagining. I must admit I do like the chunky design of the new bottle. I remember thinking it was a shame I didn’t really like pure XS because I’d just quite like that bottle in my wardrobe. I owned a couple of bottles in the 90’s/2000’s and even my dad was a fan of the original, the more I think about XS the more I’m tempted to get a bottle now, whether it’s this one or an older bottle.
