Lady Million Prive
by Paco Rabanne
Lady Million Prive is a rich, warm gourmand fragrance with a deep, cocoa-laden heart that balances sweet honey and vanilla with earthy patchouli and woody notes. It opens with a thick, bold presence—dominated by cacao, honey, and a soft floral backdrop of heliotrope and raspberry—giving it a velvety, almost dessert-like quality that settles into a creamy, comforting dry down. The scent develops its most intimate charm over time, shifting into a complex, slightly masculine-leaning warmth that lingers pleasantly on skin and clothing, making it feel both elegant and seductive. It's best worn during cooler months, particularly autumn and winter, offering a cozy, luxurious experience that stands out even among other gourmands. While some find it overly sweet or cloying, others appreciate its depth and sophistication, especially when it settles into a warm, soft, honeyed chocolate cascade that feels unique and memorable.
Pros
- +A deep, warm, chocolate-honey-gourmand heart that feels luxurious and indulgent, particularly well-suited to fall and winter.
- +Offers excellent sillage and a long-lasting, cozy trail—especially on clothing—making it ideal for formal or intimate settings.
- +More mature and balanced than the original Lady Million, with a calmer, more sophisticated dry down that avoids being overly sweet or generic.
Cons
- −Longevity is moderate—many find it fades noticeably after a few hours, especially on skin.
- −The opening can be too strong or overwhelming for some, particularly due to patchouli and honey-heavy notes.
- −May feel too sweet or cloying for those with a sensitive nose or preference for lighter scents; not ideal for summer.
