Fragrance information:

Calandre Paco Rabanne arrived in 1969 — and it was immediately clear this one was here to stay. This is a feminine fragrance rooted in the floral and aldehyde families. The inspiration and craft behind the bottle belong to Paco Rabanne, Pierre Dinand, and Michel Hy. Available as eau de toilette.

It has a delicate sillage, staying close and personal. A couple of sprays will carry you through the whole day — longevity is firmly high. Brand country — Spain: a place that truly knows its way around a great scent. Calandre Paco Rabanne unfolds gradually, effortlessly, and with great refinement — a perfect choice for day or evening.

Perfume information

Description of the composition

The composition of Calandre is shaped as an expressive line of development, where accents shift without rush and without gaps. The creative approach of Paco Rabanne is evident in the way notes appear and fade. Nothing here feels random, and the composition keeps a clear direction. Eau de toilette sets the right density and pace of development.

In the first seconds you sense airy abstract opening notes: Aldehydes, Bergamot and Green Chord.

At the core of development you sense Geranium, Hyacinth, Iris, Jasmine, Lily of the Valley and Rose carrying a harmonious floral direction.

The accord architecture is shaped by these accords: Citrus, Floral, Musc and Wood without random overlap. Additional accords such as Powdery, Amber and Cosmetic expand the olfactory volume in the background. The gender direction is feminine, which clarifies the composition character. For persistence High indicates a stable lasting impression.

At olfactory-group level the profile is anchored in Fairy, Citrus, Green and Floral. It also reaches into Whiteflower, Ambery, Earthy / Mossy and Wood.

In summary Calandre holds a coherent structure — the opening sets direction, the heart develops the core line, while the drydown anchors the memory.

Persistence
The persistence of a fragrance is determined by how long it can be felt. It is a characteristic associated with ingredients that evaporate slowly. Persistence depends on the physical properties of the perfume ingredients—mainly their volatility and environmental factors such as temperature and humidity.
Persistence
High (5 to 12 hours)
4
Sillage
Imagine a light cloud of fragrance that, like an aeroplane trail, remains in the air after your appearance. This is the sillage - a subtle or vivid imprint left by the most diffuse element of a perfume composition. The sillage can be almost invisible when it is felt only by you and those around you. Or it can be so expressive that its presence is noticed even long after you have left.
Sillage
Imperceptible
2
Complexity and depth
The complexity of a fragrance is the number and variety of notes that create a unique composition. A complex fragrance contains many different notes that reveal themselves on the skin. The depth of a fragrance is the richness and intensity of the fragrance. Fragrances with a deep composition include heavy and powerful notes that stay on the skin longer and affect others over long distances.
