What do reviewers say about Ultra Male and Pure XS?
It's sweet. Unapologetically. But the lavender keeps it from being just another vanilla bomb, it gives the sweetness some backbone, some edge. If Le Male was a suggestion, Ultra Male is the statement.Ultra Male
Rabanne made this for people who don't need permission to take up space. The vanilla-liquor-cinnamon trio is bold, the leather is the counterweight, and together they build something that smells.Pure XS
