If you’ve ever wanted Paco Rabanne Phantom without the designer price tag, Circuit Pulse is it — our sweet-tooth oil-based impression, built to last.
Sweet, soft and just a little dangerous.
From First Dab to Dry-Down
Top: Lemon cuts sharp and sunlit. Lavender cools things with aromatic herbs.
Heart: Patchouli grounds it with earthy darkness. Vetiver snaps green and rooty. With Smoke.
Dry-down: Vanilla melts sweet and custardy; Cashmeran wraps it in velvety musk-wood; Woody Notes anchor it warm and dry.
The Case For It
The magic of a good gourmand is that it smells expensive, not like candy. This one keeps the sugar in check and lets the warmth do the talking.
Because it’s an impression of Paco Rabanne Phantom — not the designer bottle — you get the warm, sweet gourmand character you love at a fraction of the price, with none of the alcohol burn.
When To Wear It
It’s tailor-made for warm weather — spring days and balmy summer nights. A natural fit for him, and honestly great on anyone who reaches for it. Layer it on pulse points and let the sweetness bloom.
Impression, Not Imitation
Side by side, a designer spray hits louder for the first ten minutes — that’s the alcohol talking. Once it settles, an oil like this tracks remarkably close, and it’s still going strong hours after the spray has faded.
How To Get 8–12 Hours Out Of It
Apply straight after a shower while skin is still slightly damp; oil grabs onto hydrated skin and projects longer. A swipe through the hair or on a scarf extends the trail even further.
Inside the Fresh Aromatic-Gourmand Family
