Rabanne Black XS Be a Legend Iggy Pop is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2014, created by Fabrice Pellegrin and Olivier Cresp. Black XS Be a Legend Iggy Pop opens with Lemon and Cinnamon, settles into a heart of Orange Blossom and Honey, and dries down to a base of Cypriol Oil or Nagarmotha, Leather, and Labdanum. Rabanne's Black XS Be a Legend Iggy Pop carries an Acquired verdict, a fresh-led wear.

A sweet, sexy, and slightly divisive take on the original Black XS. If you like your leathers drenched in honey and don't mind a touch of sweetness, this could be your next signature scent, even if it might lean a little feminine for some.

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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer
Also Works:
Fall

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Casual

Its sweet and prominent presence, especially the honey and leather, makes it better suited for evening and cooler weather. While too strong for many offices, it shines on a date night. This isn't a casual 'throw on' scent, nor is it appropriate for sporty activities due to its warmth and depth.

About

Opens with a zesty burst of lemon, quickly warmed by a generous sprinkle of cinnamon, setting a surprisingly sweet and almost gourmand tone. As it settles, a rich, golden honey accord emerges, entwined with the luminous sweetness of orange blossom. The dry down introduces a smooth, animalic leather softened by the balsamic depth of labdanum and earthy nuances of cypriol, creating a complex and seductive trail that lingers beautifully.
