The brief
Conceived as the masculine debut for Paco Rabanne's couture house after several feminine launches.
NameSimply 'Paco Rabanne for men', the couturier's first masculine fragrance.
The flacon
Brushed-aluminum-capped clear flacon evoking Rabanne's signature work in metal couture.
Footnotes
- Paco Rabanne, the Spanish-born couturier behind the metal-dress aesthetic, was famously called 'the metal worker' by Coco Chanel.
The Curator's Note
The metal-worker's first masculine. The honey, surprisingly, is the masculine part.
