Rabanne Ultraviolet Liquid Crystal Woman is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2003. Ultraviolet Liquid Crystal Woman opens with Lemon, Violet Leaf, and Melon, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Osmanthus, and Mint, and dries down to a base of Vetiver and Oakmoss. Rabanne's Ultraviolet Liquid Crystal Woman carries an Acquired verdict, a green-led wear.

This one's a proper love-it-or-hate-it affair. Some find it a fresh, unique stunner, while others are left scrubbing off what they call a 'putrid' and 'rotten' mess. Definitely not a safe blind buy.

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

A spring fragrance - light, bright, made for the warmer turn of the year.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Casual Sport
Also Works:
Date

Its fresh, aquatic, and ozonic accords make it a great casual and sport option, especially in warmer weather. While some find it 'sexy' for dates, its divisive nature and potentially strong initial impression make it less ideal for formal settings or a reserved office environment.

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.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Citral Geranial from Lemon
  • Oakmoss Evernia prunastri extract from Oakmoss

Other declarable allergens

  • Spearmint Mentha Viridis Leaf Oil from Mint

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

Opens with an unexpectedly bright and watery melon, quickly joined by crisp violet leaf and a zingy lemon that keeps things lively. The heart introduces a delicate osmanthus and a cool, refreshing mint, with just a hint of jasmine. It settles into a woody embrace of vetiver and earthy oakmoss, maintaining a fresh, airy quality throughout.
