Peppery Black XS
Black XS L'Exces for Her is a little similar to the original Black XS, however there are some qualities that make this flanker more appealing to my nose.

I find this fragrance to be less sweet, and in some ways, a touch more masculine. I've always admired the Black XS packaging and its edgy, 'rocker chick' advertising campaign. I'm absolutely digging the strong hit of pepper in Black XS L'Exces for Her. It's unique and daring on the skin.

Neroli is usually a note that features in my Summer perfumes, so I'm not accustomed to smelling it in such a strong, wintry fragrance such as this one. It actually works quite well alongside the cranberry, rose and pepper. Black XS L'Exces for Her is tart yet sweet at the same time.

I'm not a 'rock chick' by any means, nor am I a goth or an emo. If anything, I would describe myself as elegant and reserved. Forget Black XS L'Exces' marketing campaign, and forget Iggy Pop. Anyone can wear this fragrance. For me personally, it's one of those smoulderingly sexy scents. I would pair it with some black pumps or a tight red dress.

The original Black XS for Her is a fruity gourmand, whereas Black XS L'Exces for Her is a more toned-down version with less sugary fruits. That's not to say that it has weaker longevity and projection, quite the contrary. Black XS L'Exces is just as potent as its predecessor.
