Ultrared Men Paco Rabanne for men

so sweet
a bit sinthetic but the bitter orange with that kinda candy feeling makes it worth
gourmand for younger people
the best is that is was no so popular so now is rar to find anyone else wearing it
if u like xeryous rouge try this

Found a 50ml very cheaply and bought blindly. A very nice tart blood orange on first spray but this fades quite quickly on me. The tonka and praline hang around for a while and it is not too sickly. The patchouli and vanilla waft around quietly. I like gourmand fragrances and this was a nice suprise find. Stays quite close to the skin and is not a loud fragrance. Was expecting a lot more projection and sillage but on the whole a nice fragrance.

Update:
The fragrance is very nice but the longevity is very poor on me. It has all but completely vanished in 3-4 hours on me which is a great shame as it smells great when first applied.
Overall 5/10 due to the lack of staying power.

Coutureguru yes! U are being a moron =))
And an epic one too.

I could never really figure out why this one wasn't called "Infra"red ... surely "Ultra"red is a misnomer? I get Ultraviolet ... hmmm ... am I just being a moron?!?!?! Anyway ... based on the reviews here, definitely one to seek out!!

great fragance , one of my favourite it's a very good option for parties !

This is my new purchase, just three days ago. I didnt find this in our leading malls but alas, I made a blind buy of this last stock from an independent perfume store.
This perfume is so sweet but so good. The sweet scent of blood orange lasted in my skin for two hours before it transform to a kinda chocolate scent and I love it even more.
This is great in evening use, but also ok in daytime as it is sweet, fresh and pleasant. Sillage and longevity is great. It last in my skin more than 6 hours.
I did not regret buying Ultrared. Im not sure but somehow in the dry down, i smell a slight hint of Alien or Angel for women.
I think women can use this as well. If you like sweet and kinda chocolate fragrance then i recommend this perfume.

Addendum haha : Good news! I just used it yesterday 6pm, it is now 4am and I can still smell it on my skin. Same with Givenchy Very Irresistible for Men. Whoa! They are great frags! very impressive! But Roche Desir fragrance gone by 3am.

I bought it to my husband and i can just eat him when he wears it. mmm...yummmy...:)

i am completely droooooling over this!
yummmm
big juicy blood orange...
the tart citrus blast followed by the savory praline
makes my mouth water.
warms down to oriental vanilla bean.
this baby is mine....aaalllll mine : )
btw, the ultrared for women is just as delicious, sweet strawberries and marshamllow....this is the best pair ever

I really, really like this fragrance. It's sweet, fresh, gourmand, delicious, never cloying but a bit "sticky" :)
However, as much as I do love this fragrance I never get ANY compliments wearing it :((( This is very off-puting since I find it alluring and use it at special occasions and no one ever said that I smell good or anything. And people wear fragrances partly so that others notice how good s/he smells.

Blood Orange dominate the opening with sweet touch, make a lovely citrusy at the beginning , after while goes to next stage: decrease of citrus and raise of oriental touch
finally drydown to mix of oriental, woody, sweet, (the drydowen didnt that great as top and middle)

i really love the opening, its one of the best part in ultrared man, in general it share a bit with 1 million it looks like 1 million with less floral and spicy,
pacco rabanne is a rock in sweet scent.

longevity and sillage are very good.
it was blind buy , and i am Happy with it.

I was so happy to find this in a little boutique called Fine Fragrances at a mall near the city, along with some other rarities. I was horrified when I heard the price: $92.00 for 50 ml!?! (Almost CREED type pricing~$2 per ml!) Needless to say...it's still at the shoppe, along with the crazy Russian lady who owns it. As are Versace V/S Homme, and too many more to list...Why must people who know a scent has been discontinued, gouge us who did not even know of its existence before it went away??...This review is from a tester spray on paper, and on my coat:

This scent is so very nice (and I too agree with Kristo-very unisex)...blood oranges have a smell (and taste) all their own. More 'rich' and sweet without the tartness of tangerines or clementines. This alone is the only citrus present, but it is more than enough to brighten it and blend well with the heavier 'foody' notes. The creamy body of tonka's smooth soft warmth with the sweet dryness of pralines is fantastic. The drydown of gooey caramel (though not listed I definitely get carmel), raw 'chewy' patchouli and sweet gourmand vanilla makes this so sexy and I wish now that I had known that shop was there before I spent most of my money. :-( I did get Spark Men for 20 bucks for a 50 ml, though...but it is not the same!
This is something that would work well day or night, and the citrus is good for summer and the orientalness (and gourmand tones) superb for the cooler times. I must find this scent, and SOON!

Sillage: very good
Longevity: great(on clothes & paper)
Overall: 4.25/5

I have never smelled the Black XS, but I can understand what it must smell like after saying this is the sibling of BXS and UltraViolet Man...I have only very recently discovered the wonder of citrus gourmands and though this may smell common to some, where I live there is NOTHING like this. To me it is unique...different from The Secret, Angel (and A*Men) yet similar enough to radiate quality and deliciousness.

So when you guys say it reminds you of Angel... is that A*MEN or Angel for women? I'm looking at the notes and comparisons trying to figure out where 1 Million comes in at. You want a 1 Million interpretation? Go for The Secret by Antonio Banderas. I hear the lasting power for Ultrared is lacking. Someone fill me in on some details please. Thanks.

Nothing particularly original. I agree with Cassiano that someone could confuse with a scent with the style of Angel and also Avon Tomorrow Man. I think is something between those sweet scents and something just a bit more formal but still creamy, like Emporio Armani Diamonds. Not bad, but too many scents like this around here...

I totally agree with those who support the idea that this one echoes Angel by T.M. It's the same kind of lavishness bordering with ecstatic celebration of a hot summer's night!!!

10/10

Well, that’s the type of scent that I really like: sweet, making the “gourmand” style and it fits very well with night, sensuality, etc.

It is a young type of scent, easy to please both male and female public.

On my skin stays a smell of caramel with a touch of Marraschino Cherry, even though, it doesn’t have any of these ingredients on its composition.

It reminded me Black XS + caramel. Good long lasting!

However, it is the type of fragrance that I am used to call as “common place”. People ask all the time: “Is it Angel?”, “Is it Black XS?”, “Is it 1 Million?”

I take 7 from 10 stars!

I've noticed this is getting quite hard to find - has it been discontinued??

Ultrared is a very comfortable sweet gourmand fragrance. The kind you put to feel good and pleased. The orange helps the fragrance keep its charm and still bring the sweetness to its core. There is something really unique and special about Ultrared that helps my day and nights get cozier and comforting.

Este perfume me lo auto regale para mi 29 cumpleaños en Salta. Si te gustan los perfumes fuertes y dulzones, te recomiendo este de una. En mi casa es uno de los más odiados por lo “oloroso” que es pero bue, no tienen buen olfato jaja.
Personalmente me gusta usarlo en invierno o cuando hace frío porque es muy cálido el perfume. Viene muy bien para salir de noche y hacerse el top.

remind me of roca wear but this is way way better. it is ashame that this is limited edition of ultraviolet, they should put it back on the market

someone gave me a whiff from a spray card... to me it smells like Liberte by Cacharel a bit... might check it out properly sometime

From first sniff this is the lil' brother of Black XS not Ultraviolet. Smell almost identical to Black XS, lighter and easier to love I guess. Really sweet, really fruity (orange-y/strawberry-y). Just try on for about 1 hr, it takes out everything I don't like in Black XS so what I'm left with is the "love everything" version of Black XS. Still waiting for the gourmand-toffee dry down to see if it's really worth a full bottle.

This fragrance smells very much like '1 Million' - that was the first thing that struck me about it. I thought it was warm and sensual, comforting even. It seems to be very reasonably priced and almost a flanker to Unltrviolet Men.

Definitely worth considering.

After some months testing this I think now that only the start is pleasant: fresh, citric and well-balanced-sweet. Unfortunatelly in only 5 minutes it becames too sintetic, strong, not fresh, all the citric faded away. It becames woody-sweet in a wrong way, saddly. :-(

This is more like a Black XS sequel: take one black xs, add more tonka bean, vanilla, caramel and some blood orange and emphasize the citrus notes, and you have ultrared. Definitely for teens or early 20s. The only reminiscence to Ultraviolet is the design of the bottle.
I like it as a fresh,sensual scent. I bought it yesterday and it is very intense. I wish it had less patchouli, but it is good. Very similar with Escada Magnetism for Women, too. The blood orange note is quite interesting.

I smelled this today and my immidiate thought was: Candyfloss. It is very, very sweet, most likely the tonka beans and vanilla coming through. A woman could wear this and totally pull it off as well so I don't know why they label this Ultrared Men, it should be unisex. There is nothing really masculine about it. That aside, I DID like the smell, but it's not enough to warrant a purchase for me.

I bought it today. Ideal for coming spring and summer. Oranges, praline and vanilla bring unexpected feeling of freshness, very different from classic citrus fragrances, so popular in warm days.

its my favorite this season

It doesn't remind me A*Men, but Black XS with oranges. Great synthetic smell, begins very citric and evolves to a comfortable vanilla-gourmand base. The lasting power is very good, as well!

I bought one today and i´m testing for evening and night. It reminds me "Angel" for her of "Thierry Mugler" coz it haves (for me) smell of caramel (by the pralinè). I discord of Dunatko that in the end it´s only vanilla... for me it leaves caramel, like a candy really.

I think it's too sweet like a candy.

It is nice...very fresh at the beginning and the very sweet...it last quite long and reminds me a bit Thierry Mugler A*Man even it is not so warm but more fresh...a good fragrance for men who love sweet parfums and it is good for summer

Great sweet summer juice. This fragrance is perfect for those who prefer gourmand and exotic, enticing composition full of sweet and modern chords. Bloody orange gives explosion of sweet freshness at the beginning, and makes this gourmand composition a bit lighter and exciting. Praline, Tonka and vanilla makes good seductive construction with warm and rich aromas. Design of a bottle is ultra modern, ultra bright, and the name is just perfect for this edition - Ultra Red :)

its fresh from start... sweet - similar to black xs:-) hmm nice... but quickly comes the base note and you can smell only vanilla... vanilla... and vanilla :-(

I want this so much!! It seems to be sweet, just like I love! Wonder if the staying power is good...
Could anyone tell me?
Thank you!

its soooo sexy, i love sweet fragrances very much on men so, those who do, will like this one too. Seems like paco rabane is going on with the sweet scents, (after xs black which i also like. Its not that agressive, its lighter but still last.

I did try it. Awesome!!! I love Ultraviolet... Im gonna to love Ultrared...
