Paul Sebastian’s launch fragrance, which is still sold today, is called Paul Sebastian Fine Cologne, a mixture of subtle spices, sweet floral and citrus, with rich undertones of soft woods and musk released in 1980. It was followed in 1982 by a men’s fragrance "VSOP" and in 1985 by "Design", the company’s first women’s fragrance. After developing "Brownstone" in 1988 and "Tribeca" in 1989, Paul Sebastian worked with designer Alexander Julian to develop "Colours", a women’s wear collection released in 1992. The company found success with its own Casual (for men and women) and Design (for men) in 1995. In 1997, it returned to pairing with outside designers, working with David Chu on "Nautica" Women and “Nautica” Competition and developing Embrace for luxury goods company Mark Cross. It also released its own Paul Sebastian Silver in 1997. In 2004, Funky Sexy Cool for women was released under the Paul Sebastian name, a sweet scent featuring honeysuckle, fruit, and lilac, and its newest scent, released in 2006, is Paul Sebastian Kinetic.
