Paco Rabanne Lady Million Eau De Parfum 50ml

I want to start this by stating that @influenster gave me this product for #free in exchange for an honest review. #incentivized That being said, I am not normally someone who enjoys or can even tolerate perfume on occasion due to allergies to additives and whatnot; however I love this scent. It's rich and decadent without feeling too heavy, heady, or strong. For me, it reminded me of what my mom's perfume smelled like when I was a child; however much less concentrated and more natural and raw. My daughter loves the way I smell now too, continuing a tradition while letting me build my own and feel like a "fancy woman" like this beautiful and golden work of art was designed for. It's definitely worth a try, even with #sensitivities. Thank you so much @Influenster ... MoreI want to start this by stating that @influenster gave me this product for #free in exchange for an honest review. #incentivized That being said, I am not normally someone who enjoys or can even tolerate perfume on occasion due to allergies to additives and whatnot; however I love this scent.

I generally am drawn to spicy, earthy fragrances. Lady Million is neither of those - very floral, reminiscent of fabric softener and jasmine. I like it anyway, but a little goes a long way. Like one spritz and you are set. It really sticks in the nostrils, so you'd better like the scent ! I would wear this to remind myself of springtime. There are two annoying things: the bottle itself cannot stand on its own due to its shape. That's ok, but tough to get a good picture of the bottle. I am storing it in the box to keep my cat from constantly pushing it around (and eventually to the floor). Second is I ended up with a headache after the first few times I wore it. I have had reactions to fragrances before, but I cannot say for sure if this perfume is the cause of my ... MoreI generally am drawn to spicy, earthy fragrances.

I have received this parfum from Influenster and brands in exchange of my honest review. When I first opened the box and smelled it, I had mixed feelings about this fragrance. I found to be very overpowering and synthetic at the initial spray which somehow gave me a sort of nausea effect. But let this not fool you, as the parfum completely changes, loose this initial heavy smell almost within next 10-15 minutes and it opens to a much nicer, enchanting smell. It has very sweet fruity opening, but this softly fades away to softer floral notes like neroli, gardenia and orange flower. It’s floral accords combined with amber, patchouli and white honey makes this fragrance a stable and unique scent that can be differentiated by people easily. It’s definitely a seductive ... MoreI have received this parfum from Influenster and brands in exchange of my honest review.

It’s floral accords combined with amber, patchouli and white honey makes this fragrance a stable and unique scent that can be differentiated by people easily. It’s definitely a seductive fragrance, which changes smell as per the skin type. I have very white skin type which usually changes heavier smells to a much softer version, and I really liked the fragrance on my skin after it settled. And it’s a very long-lasting fragrance as only 2-3 sprays lasted around 8+ hours. My other concern about this fragrance was its popularity when it was first released. I remember smelling this parfum in many places I go in the first few years after it’s released. So if you are a person who prefer to go for a more unique smells, but still looking for a fragrance that is really long lasting, you can easily try to layer down this parfum with more lighter fragrances to soften it’s smell which is on the heavier side, and also to create a more unique smell that no one has! I tried layering it down with Molton Brown Lily of the Valley Star Anise parfum and the result was amazing! So if you are looking for a timeless long lasting parfum that can also be layered with other fragrances, go for Lady Million and you will not be upset.

A classic, beautiful scent!

I received this perfume for free in exchange for my honest review. At first, I was a little worried if I would like this perfume as I am not the biggest fan of floral fragrances. However, this perfume is so much more than just another floral fragrance! Upon the first spritz of this perfume you immediately smell that neroli/raspberry and jasmine note that is sweet and floral. As the perfume dries down, the honey note (which I think is super unique and my favourite part of the fragrance) really comes through! It becomes this woody/earthy floral scent that is warm and seductive. Overall, I love this fragrance!! It is not too overpowering, suitable for all ages, and not to mention the bottle is stunning. 10/10 would recommend.

Classy, sophisticated perfume

I received this product for free from Influenster and Paco Rabanne in exchange for my honest review. I have not been wearing perfume regularly as my workplace is a scent-free environment, but when I tried on Lady Million Eau de Parfum, it reminded me how much I've missed wearing perfumes! It's a strong scent at first and a little spritz goes a long way. The scent is floral, and has hints of citrus and honey. It's a very classy, sophisticated smell and makes me feel very put together when I have it on. I would say this scent fits all seasons and can be worn whenever. The design of the bottle fits this perfume perfectly, it's very fancy. I've tried wearing it for the whole day and can confirm it is long lasting. Couldn't be more happy with this perfume.

Lovely for a night out fragrance

I was incentivized for this review with a gifted fragrance from Influenster and Puig in exchange for an honest review. <3This is my first time trying Lady Million. Upon opening the package, the bottle is stunning. I am a big fan of functional and beautiful packaging, and Lady Million hits the mark on both of these. It is a stunning addition to my vanity for the diamond shaped packaging and I am also in love with the easy to use trigger spray that sprays the perfect amount.In terms of the scent, I really enjoy it. With my particular skin chemistry, it first shines with the neroli and bitter orange notes, and the jasmine. After the dry down it becomes a little more woody and sweet with still a strong citrus finish. Later during the day I can really smell the amber ... MoreI was incentivized for this review with a gifted fragrance from Influenster and Puig in exchange for an honest review. <3This is my first time trying Lady Million.

Later during the day I can really smell the amber and patchouli and it makes me feel a bit sensual and sexy when I can smell myself. I do wish it projected a little more and had more lasting power but that's the only area this fragrance could do better for me, personally.

Paco Lady Million Eau De Parfum EDP-S 80Ml

This is how far behind I am Paco Rabanne has already got Olympa Aqua on the perfume counters, and Im just getting around to reviewing the original Olympa. Ive actually had the sample for a bit, but its mostly just sat there, waiting while I reviewed other, more likely candidates. The folks over at Paco Rabanne have done a great job of keeping the brand relevant with the youth market, but have not shown much interest, so far, with the notyouth market, which of course includes me, and partly explains why the lack of interest is pretty much mutual. I did review Black XS For Her way back in 2007 but I skipped Lady Million altogether. Kevin, however, gamely reviewed Invictus ugly, he said, and I wholeheartedly concur, so here I go1with Olympa, the fragrance for the ... MoreThis is how far behind I am Paco Rabanne has already got Olympa Aqua on the perfume counters, and Im just getting around to reviewing the original Olympa.

I did review Black XS For Her way back in 2007 but I skipped Lady Million altogether. Kevin, however, gamely reviewed Invictus ugly, he said, and I wholeheartedly concur, so here I go1with Olympa, the fragrance for the modern day Cleopatra. As is so often the case with these big designer launches, it took a team of big name perfumers Loc Dong, Anne Flipo and Dominique Ropion to put it together. Its advertised as a fresh oriental and as a a unique fusion between a sensual salted vanilla accord and refreshing floral notes,2 and thats all reasonably accurate. Olympa starts with a very juicy, very green citrus overlaid with a decent lashing of ginger. It announces its fresh orientation right out of the gate, with vague allusions to Glade and LEau dIssey, but its otherwise a nice enough start. It sweetens up as the top notes fade, with candied but watery floral notes and then creamy vanilla over a woody musk with salty solar undertones. It has a summery, almostbeachy feel neither caramel popcorn nor coconut are listed in the notes, but there are faint strains of either or both, and theres just enough powder to lend a velvety finish to the far dry down. Verdict Its just fine. Its reasonably wearable and reasonably pleasant if applied in moderation despite the fresh and watery notes, it is not really a sheer scent. Not surprisingly, I found it both too sweet and too synthetically fresh for my taste, and in general, it called up modern youth on spring break more than Cleopatra. Still, not bad, and a far cry better than Invictus. If you want something along the same lines, but maybe a little more sophisticated, you might try Calvin Klein Reveal. If you want more fruit and less fresh, you might try Thierry Mugler Womanity. Paco Rabanne Olympa is available in 30, 50 and 80 ml Eau de Parfum and in matching body products. I think there was originally an Extrait as well, but perhaps it is already sold out The notes include mandarin, ginger lily, aquatic accord, jasmine, vanilla, cashmere wood, sandalwood and ambergris.

Powerful Yet Elegant Scent

Note: This perfume was gifted and incentivized through Influenster for my honest review.First of all, the look of this packaging is super flashy, luxurious, and screams expensive. I found it overly flashy while at the same time mesmerized by it. The amber colour of the perfume is just gorgeous in the bottle.The scent itself at first whiff is delicately floral with a curious undertone of something else. Very gently woody and old world almost. It’s very comforting and at first smelled a bit mature but I couldn’t keep my nose away from my wrist where I spayed it. It’s not quite the intense mature smell of my grandmother’s perfume but much more gentle.It has an incredible elegance of the traditional woman and still a that subtle woody undertone that gives it a ... MoreNote: This perfume was gifted and incentivized through Influenster for my honest review.First of all, the look of this packaging is super flashy, luxurious, and screams expensive.

I’m just in my early thirties and this scent feels slightly mature for my fresh, floral taste, so I took off one star, but I have to admit I just can’t stop smelling it. It’s just so delicate and unique.I wrap this scent up in three words: elegant, powerful, and delicate.
