Paco Rabanne

1 Million Elixir

1 Million Elixir by Paco Rabanne is a masculine-leaning parfum from 2022 in the designer price tier. It opens with grapefruit and mandarin, moves into cinnamon and cardamom and dries down to leather, tonka bean and patchouli. Expect around 9 hours of wear, and it projects strongly.

Notes, explained

Opening

• Grapefruit Bitter, slightly sweaty citrus. More grown-up than lemon.
• Mandarin Soft, sweet, almost powdery citrus. Gentler than orange.

Heart

• Cinnamon Sweet heat. Reads festive, sometimes to a fault.
• Cardamom Cool, aromatic spice with a eucalyptus lift. Smells expensive.

Dry-down

• Leather Smoky, dry and a bit animal. Can be a new jacket or an old saddle.
• Tonka Bean Almond, hay and vanilla in one. Warm and slightly nutty.
• Patchouli Damp earth and dark chocolate. Either you love it or it's your least favourite note.
