Lady Rebel was created by Sonia Constant for Puig and launched in 2009. It belongs to the women’s fruity floral family and has that fresh, bold character that sets it apart from conventional florals. Its rock inspiration doesn’t translate into harshness but into audacity — it’s a fragrance that pushes you to be yourself without apology.
