Rebelle Eau de Parfum vs No.072 Black XS Eau de Parfum
ScentArt
Which Should You Buy?
Rebelle is one of those divisive beasts you either adore or absolutely loathe. When it works, it's a luscious, boozy gourmand. When it doesn't, it's a muddy, patchouli-laden mess. Definitely try before you buy this one.
No.072 chases the tart cranberry-tamarind opening and rose-cacao heart of Black XS for Her, landing close on the fruity-gourmand character but rendering the woody vanilla base noticeably flatter and less lingering than Rabanne's original.
