Paco Rabanne is an atypical fashion designer, who has never hesitated to break the rules. Thus, when he creates perfumes, he does not simply craft a scent. He also imagines a story and an entire universe. Since 2008, 1 Million has plunged us into a luxurious world. The man who wears this perfume seems capable of obtaining everything with a simple snap of the fingers. Oriental and fruity, this juice currently ranks among Paco Rabanne's best-sellers. In 2023, the house therefore decided to create a new version of it. Welcome to the kingdom of 1 Million Royal by Paco Rabanne!
It was in 2008 that Paco Rabanne gave birth to one of his greatest perfumes: the timeless 1 Million. Buoyed by its success, this oriental and fruity juice did not take long to see the emergence of its feminine counterpart. Then, year after year, Paco Rabanne also took pleasure in creating other versions. This is how 1 Million Intense, 1 Million Lucky, 1 Million Cologne and 1 Million Privé, among others, came to be. In 2023, the atmosphere becomes even more dazzling and luxurious. Let us discover together the composition of the men's perfume 1 Million Royal by Paco Rabanne.
The very lively and refreshing opening of 1 Million Royal
Like many perfumes, 1 Million Royal by Paco Rabanne opens with a very lively and refreshing breath. Thus, it immediately captures men's attention, while boosting their energy day after day. To achieve this, it relies on citrus. Mandarin lends it a tangy breath, balanced by the slight bitterness of bergamot. As a reminder, this fruit results from the crossing of the lemon tree and the bitter orange tree. Sharp as needed, it brings a very zesty side to 1 Million Royal by Paco Rabanne. Cardamom then appears, for a spicier result. Typical of oriental compositions, this element is also meant to be slightly anisic and camphoraceous.
1 Million Royal by Paco Rabanne offers a more aromatic heart
At its heart, 1 Million Royal by Paco Rabanne turns toward a more Mediterranean and aromatic register. It contains clary sage. Different from the sage used in cooking, this one has a chypre scent, itself also emblematic of oriental perfumes. Its advantage? Sage is also a very good fixative! Thanks to it, 1 Million Royal by Paco Rabanne holds perfectly on skin for many hours. Lavender, meanwhile, gives the whole a more powerful tonality, evocative of the gardens of southern France in summer. Slightly retro, it recalls the scent of classic eaux de Cologne, irrevocably anchored in men's collective memory. Finally, violet leaves add a crisper, more green aspect to this heart.
The final amber and woody notes of 1 Million Royal by Paco Rabanne
In its base notes, 1 Million Royal by Paco Rabanne gradually asserts its virility. Cedar gives it a drier, sharper and more distinguished breath. It also reinforces the structure and natural elegance of this juice. Patchouli, for its part, evokes the darkest side of the male personality. Woody and earthy, it comes to build the whole composition's structure. Finally, 1 Million Royal by Paco Rabanne closes with a final breath of benzoin. Close to vanilla and caramel, this last note adds a more enveloping and gourmand facet to the whole. The Paco Rabanne king might therefore well conceal a tender heart behind his provocative appearance…
