Rabanne Silver Skin is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2024, created by Fabrice Pellegrin. Silver Skin opens with Pink Pepper, settles into a heart of Iris and Iris, and dries down to a base of Resins, Vanilla, and Benzoin. Rabanne's Silver Skin carries a Favourite verdict, a floral-led wear.

This is a seriously divisive Iris-Vanilla. Some find it a gorgeously balanced, luxurious gourmand experience, others call it a dusty, metallic let-down. If you want a cool contrast of warm and cold, or the smell of birthday cake with a smoky twist, you'll love it.

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

Silver Skin opens with a sharp, peppery kick, swiftly followed by a prominent iris-orris heart that's powdery, earthy, and at times, almost metallic. As it settles, a rich, amber glow emerges, with the deep, resinous benzoin and sweet vanilla providing a warm, comforting base. It’s an intriguing dance between cool floral and sweet, smoky warmth.
