Paco Rabanne, the designer who likes to dress up his Black XS fragrance with rock and roll artists, is back. And this time we’re not predicting the end of the world, just a pure evening of Rock N Roll with the Plastiscines, the French rock band that seduced America.
After Izia, M, Skip The Use, The Rolling Stone, the brand is teaming up with Plastiscines, who for the occasion are revisiting 5 iconic Rock tracks for a digital EP to be released on February 3, 2014
Paco Rabanne’s BLACK XS fragrance, in partnership with Universal Music & Because Music, joins forces with the all-female rock band for a groundbreaking musical project. Created almost 10 years ago, Paco Rabanne’s Black XS fragrances transcend perfume and music lovers by revealing their rockstar potential. More than a fragrance, Black XS has become a key player in the rock universe, a pioneer in digital and live experiences, and a creator of content with numerous rock artists around exceptional and exclusive moments.
Plastiscines had been in the studio for some time preparing their next album. Black XS had long been keen to collaborate with an all-female band on the French rock scene, and had naturally been following the band’s news. The meeting was an obvious choice. Revisiting rock anthems is not a first for the trio, who have already had fun in the past with covers of the famous “I love Rock’n’Roll”!

For this project, the three belles have recorded, with their usual energy, a number of hits by rock and pop greats. Starting February 3, we’ll be able to discover their covers of the following five titles: Blue Jeans (Lana Del Rey), Sexy Boy (Air), Murder On The Dancefloor (Sophie Ellis-Bextor), C’est La Ouate (Caroline Loeb) and Wake Me Up before you go go (Wham!).
For this project, they called on the excellent Antoine Gaillet, who is now one of the best directors on the new French scene. He has worked on recent albums by Barbara Carlotti, Herman Dune and Armand Meniès, and most recently co-directed Love, the new album by Julien Doré.
A chance to celebrate with an exclusive evening at Le Badaboum. We’re giving away two tickets for this super-private concert! To your comments, write your most beautiful Rock n Roll moment!
