Rabanne Phantom is a Parfum launched in 2023, created by Juliette Karagueuzoglou, Anne Flipo, and Dominique Ropion. Phantom opens with Rhubarb, Bergamot, Lemon, and Cardamom, settles into a heart of Cedar, Patchouli, Lavender, and Geranium, and dries down to a base of Vetiver, Vanilla, and Tolu Balsam. Rabanne's Phantom carries a Statement verdict, a woody-led wear.

Phantom Eau de Parfum elevates the playful DNA of the original with a darker, richer, and more sensual twist. The creamy vanilla, spicy cardamom, and aromatic woods create a bold signature that's both seductive and strikingly modern.

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:
Fall Winter
Also Works:
Spring

Phantom Eau de Parfum's spicy vanilla and rich aromatic woods shine in cool to mild weather, making it perfect for fall and winter. The fresh citrus and aromatic top keep it wearable in spring, but its warmth and intensity can feel too heavy for hot summer days.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Office Casual Formal

This scent is best on dates and nights out where its sensual vanilla and spicy woods can impress, but it is versatile enough for casual and some formal occasions. Its moderate projection makes it appropriate for office wear if applied lightly, but it's too rich and sweet for sporty or very hot settings.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

Other declarable allergens

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Lavender Lavandula Hybrida Oil from Lavender
  • Rose geranium Pelargonium Graveolens Oil from Geranium
  • Vanillin from Vanilla

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Phantom Eau de Parfum opens with a burst of spicy cardamom and juicy bergamot, quickly enveloped by aromatic lavender and a tangy hint of rhubarb. As it settles, the scent deepens with creamy vanilla, smoky tolu balsam, and earthy Haitian vetiver, all underpinned by warm woods and powdery nuances. The result is a decadent and confident masculine fragrance that balances bold sweetness with aromatic and woody depth, leaving a lasting, sensual impression.
