December Perfume Challenge: Day 24 - Paco Rabanne Lady Million


Merry Christmas Eve everyone! Are you all doing anything special? I spent most of the day (or afternoon, really) working on dinner - prime rib, roast potatoes, creamed spinach and yorkshire puddings. YUM! I wanted to pick a Christmas-y scent, but I didn't have one, nor could I think of one, so today it's Paco Rabanne Lady Million. This scent seems really popular right now as I have several friends who absolutely love it. But I guess the real question is, do i?

I say: "I remember the sales girl at Sephora saying this was her favorite scent for going out and I agree that it's more of an evening scent than an every day scent for me. It reminds me of Very Sexy by Victoria's Secret which actually does make me feel sexy (okay, very sexy even). I don't even know where to start with this scent - it's a little musky, dark - not particularly floral per se. I'm at a loss with this one!"

They say: "Vibrant and sensual, Lady Million is like a voluptuous nectar of flowers. Powerfully seductive, the sparkle of bitter orange and a hint of raspberry reveals the fragrance's first breath. Smooth and bright, a burst of neroli follows. Then the lethal weapon: heady orange blossom slips out of its sheath. Its narcotic sweetness then reveals itself, bewitching and demanding all attention. Joining with sambac jasmine and underlined by gardenia, the blend soars into something more carnal—yet ever subtle. Now the obsessive pulsing of patchouli enters the fray, pacifying notes of honey with an addictive and supremely tempting sweetness. Amber endnotes become all enveloping, floating around like a ray of light on a diamond.

Notes:
Neroli, Bitter Orange, Raspberry, Orange Flower Absolute, Sambac Jasmine Absolute, Gardenia, Patchouli, Honey, Amber."

I wonder what absolute is. Probably not vodka. See ya tomorrow on CHRISTMAS!
