Rabanne XS scores 86% against Creed Himalaya overall — scored twice, once on the opening and once on the dry-down, because a scent rarely stays still on skin.
The two phases agree: Rabanne XS tracks Creed Himalaya about as closely in the first minutes as it does hours later, so what you smell on the strip is a fair guide to what you get on skin.
Both are built on citrus, woody, powdery and aromatic. Creed Himalaya adds musky, amber and animalic that Rabanne XS does not. Rabanne XS brings herbal, green and soft spicy of its own.
