Clean Shaven Phantom is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2021. Phantom opens with Bergamot, Lemon, and Lavender, settles into a heart of Lavender and Apple, and dries down to a base of Patchouli, Vanilla, and Ambroxan. Clean Shaven's Phantom carries a Statement verdict, a green-led wear.

Clean Shaven's Phantom dupe captures the quirky lavender-apple-vanilla opening that made Paco Rabanne's original stand out from typical fougeres, but the smoky patchouli base that gives real Phantom its lasting depth fades to a thin vanilla note much sooner.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

About

Paco Rabanne's Phantom built its identity on an unlikely pairing - a sharp lemon-lavender opening giving way to sweet apple and a smoky vanilla-patchouli base - that reviewers note performs well for an Eau de Toilette, often running eight-plus hours. Clean Shaven's version gets the quirky opening right: the lavender and citrus hit is recognisable within the first spray, and there's a believable apple sweetness in the early heart. Where it falls short is the dry-down. The real Phantom's smoky, slightly powdery patchouli base is what keeps people noticing it hours later, and the dupe's version settles into a simpler, flatter vanilla sweetness that loses definition well before the original would still be going. A decent way to sample the concept on a night out, but plan a reapplication if you want it to last.
