1 Million is just one of those fragrances where I genuinely cannot comprehend how people can find it enjoyable. It’s simply just one of the worst smelling fragrances on the mass market at the moment, and yet it’s a cultural icon - most likely due to its gaudy and identifiable bottle. Overall this scent is a synthetic mess of warm spices and citric mandarin. This results in a scent that is trying to be both warm and fresh, but fails miserably. Instead, the final product is just a barrage of intense sharpness - assaulting the nostrils unforgivingly. I genuinely believe this is an awful, awful fragrance. I dislike it intensely, but that is the case with pretty much everything from Paco Rabanne if I’m honest.
There's a lot going on but I absolutely cannot stand it. Way too heavy for me, it's as subtle as a brick wall, just oppressive and nauseating. I feel like if I could just water this down to about half the strength, I could get my nose in and there might be something interesting here, but as it is, if I try it's just headache inducing. Total scrubber for me, but to be fair, I really just can't do these heavy, sweet scents. Just not for me.
Just not my cup of tea this one. I get lots of notes from this and things that I normally love cinnamon, grapefruit, leather, amber but I'm just not feeling this combination. I was put off by my intial encounter with it... when it was sprayed on me by one of those guys in toilets on a night out...he never even asked my cologne preference or anything? Just dowsed me in it. I thought I smelled feminine all night after that and was not impressed. A few nice notes came out on the dry down but still it's too much!
Very sweet smell, although it is enjoyable, this is a synthetic note to it that sticks out to me. A lot of people compliment me when I wear though and overall it is still a solid wear. Unique smell, a bit pricey though for its performance and cons.
