PACO RABANNE EAU DE CALANDRE FOR WOMEN (1969 VERSION) ORIGINAL EAU DE TOILETTE 60 ml 2.0 FL.OZ.
This is the first women’s fragrance launched by PACO RABANNE PARFUMS S. A. PARIS.
A LEGENDARY FRAGRANCE
Paco Rabanne drew inspiration for the fragrance’s name (Calandre) from the grille of a Rolls-Royce.
At the time, Paco Rabanne used metal in his fashion designs, and Calandre reflected this.
Calandre is a floral fragrance combining rose, jasmine, green notes and Rabanne’s signature metallic note—a scent unlike any other, seductive, elegant and unmistakable, as PACO RABANNE writes in the fragrance’s leaflet.
Silver metallic-colored box
The transparent rectangular glass bottle has black bands at the top and bottom.
Plastic/metal cap in black and metallic tones, with the pr logo on top.
The heavy, clear bottle was made by French artisans at Pochet du Courval, bearing the HP trademark, a world leader in luxury perfume glass packaging.
The understated packaging and bottle (inspired by the façade of the United Nations building) were designed by renowned designer Pierre Dinand.
