Lady Million

Lady Million Eau de Parfum by Rabanne is beautiful, ultra-feminine, glamorous and powerful. It opens with bright raspberry and gentle neroli, its citrus notes flashing like jewellery catching the light, but the fragrance quickly settles into its true character: a rich, sensual blend of white florals drenched in honey and warmed by patchouli and amber. Many sweet fragrances aim for softness or innocence, while Lady Million aims for neither. Instead, it is bold, self-assured and commanding. The honey note is dense and golden rather than edible, while the jasmine and orange blossom add a lush, almost narcotic quality. The result feels extravagant and slightly theatrical; the olfactory equivalent of gold heels and a perfectly timed entrance. Performance is one of its strengths. On my skin, it projects well and lasts for hours, leaving a warm floral-honey trail that remains recognisable long after the brighter opening has faded. Lady Million is definitely not a fragrance for minimalists. Some may find it too sweet or too assertive, particularly in hot weather. It thrives in the evening, during cooler months, or whenever subtlety is not the objective. More than fifteen years after its release, Lady Million remains popular for a reason. It captures a very specific fantasy: luxury, confidence and excess. Whether that feels irresistible or overwhelming will depend entirely on the wearer. For me, it succeeds because it embraces its own boldness without apology. It smells less like wealth itself than like someone thoroughly enjoying the idea of it. While I wear fragrances to suit myself depending on my mood and the occasion, I have noticed that Lady Million is one perfume that regularly receives compliments. I've been told it smells beautiful and expensive. Well, it's definitely beautiful yet, thankfully, quite affordable! My only real complaint is the bottle. Inspired by a cut diamond, it looks glamorous and distinctive, but the design is surprisingly impractical. Because the base comes to a point, the bottle cannot stand upright and must be stored on its side. It's a rare example of a perfume bottle that seems to have forgotten the basic requirements of being a bottle. Thankfully, Lady Million smells far better than its packaging functions.

White-Floral Bouquet of Jasmine, Orange-Blossom & Neroli... Opens with a citrus-fruity burst of raspberry, neroli & lemon that deepens into a white-floral heart of jasmine, orange-blossom & gardenia, all resting on a floral support base of white-honey, patchouli and amber. To me this is overall a white-floral bouquet of jasmine, orange-blossom & neroli highlighted. I get citrus, clean laundry & honey with marshmallow white-florals in the background. Over time the patchouli comes out. Well above average performance for a year-round wearing experience. Contrast to Lady Million Pac-Man Collectors' Edition: These are very close. Comparing them side by side, the patchouli may be ever so slightly forward in Lady Million Pac-Man bring a slightly stronger performance. Contrast to Lady Million Royal: These are different, but the Lady Million DNA is still very present in Lady Million Royal. The marshmallow facet is a little more forward in Lady Million Royal which has a softer overall approach. Overall: I think this was ahead of its time, with many 2022-23 designer releases having this kind of vibe. Well above average performance. You can't go wrong here. It's a love for me. Enjoy!

I’ve gone through 2 bottles of this already and it’s probably my all time favourite fragrance ever. I originally got gifted this when I was 16 from a middle aged lady who said it’s also her favourite fragrance. I also got a compliment on it from a store attendant who said she bought it as a gift for her aunty but “didn’t know it was that”, however it is not mature AT ALL. This is versatile for many occasions and ages, from winter to summer. It is fresh and clean, but also sweet with a light honey note. The jasmine and florals is also really strong in this but with the other notes it’s not a “floral” scent. It is sort of a generic, and has an obnoxious feeling to it (it smells amazing I think it just kind of a “loud” scent without actually being loud). It is not delicate and quaint nor really elegant, but it smells AMAZING. I find this needs to sit for a while for it to be the scent I love, when it is a fresh bottle I get disappointed because it’s very light and doesn’t have the richness, but otherwise it is a fragrance with decent longevity and I can smell this on me all day.

This perfume used to be my signature before I received angels and demons le secret, but I constantly go back to it because there’s nothing like it. The smell is just ethereal. It’s so elegant and I don’t think anything else smells like it, it’s truly a scent completely on its own like angel by mugler. It’s light but sweet yet has the elegant musk and spice to it that makes you truly feel like the fanciest lady in the room when you wear it. The silage is strong but not overwhelming and when it goes with your skin chemistry it’s just incredible. It’s one of the few perfumes where I just want to bathe in it every day because the smell is so addicting. For me at least it also lasts an eternity, I can smell it for days on me and my clothing. For anyone who smells good in la nuit Tresor a la Folie or la nuit Tresor la nuit, angels and demons le secret or angel by mugler this perfume will be absolutely stunning on you and I think you’d be able to just blind buy it.

Not for everyone, I highly recommend skin testing (not strip testing!) this scent for a few hours before making the plunge. Has been my signature scent for the better half of a decade now and I have received countless compliments, several by women who have worn Lady Million before and not liked it on themselves, and even once by my own friend who was wearing the exact same one at the time. An all seasons bright floral that is both appropriate for office wear and date night. I have received compliments on this perfume after applying it 10+ hours beforehand, and I can smell it on my laundry when I pull it out the hamper days after wearing it. The sillage throws quite a long way but it’s not overpowering, it lingers beautifully. Good value, the perfume itself is at a reasonable price point already but its longevity and sillage really make it worth it.

This must be one of the best I have ever had. (For reference, those that i remember I love was Armani She in 2008, Britney Spears Fantasy in 2006, La vie est belle in like 2012-2013, Jasmine Noir by BLGARI in 2015. This one I think I bought around 2012. I still love it and the only reason I stopped wearing it is because I always want to have what's new, but after having going round and sniffed all the newcomers in the local perfume shop, I took this up from the cupboard. It must be bought again, because they don't last forever, but this one is still just my type. In 2012 I thought it smelled like luxury and "mature" for my age then, in a good way. I don't really think so anymore as I associate it with when I was younger, but it is still a scent I always search for in new perfumes. I know nothing that smells like it!

Lady Million is one of the few fragrances I own that draws compliments. Weird ... I have a pretty large collection and Lady Million is not really my type of thing (for reference, my signature scent is the original Obsession). Yet I keep coming back to it. Both men and women love it. I smell raspberry and honey predominately. I don't always reach for it but every time I do it makes me happy. Also, I may be in the minority here, but I think the bottle is just beautiful. So what if it's tacky? It's fun. I love the gold and the compact shape makes it a little more sturdy and thus ideal for carrying in your gym bag. Lady Million can be found pretty affordably right now. This is just my opinion, but I think if you like sweet, white florals you will enjoy Lady Million. Give it a try if you can find it for the right price.

absolute gorg.. It was love at first sniff. The opening is filled with beautiful raspberries and white florals with a delicate honeyed, nectar-like sweetness that feels incredibly well-balanced rather than overpowering. Despite its sweetness, I wouldn't classify it as a gourmand—it's unmistakably a floral sweetness. the longevity and projection is impressive. On my clothes, it easily lasts for hours, and when I'm indoors, I can still catch traces of it the next day. The scent trail is so enjoyable that even the occasional whiff makes me smile. It's an excellent everyday fragrance, especially if you enjoy sweet scents but live in a hot, tropical climate like I do. It stays airy and elegant without ever becoming heavy or make headache

I really loved this one I was actually obsessed with it for a while and I thought it smelled amazing even my friends and family complimented me when I had it on and my mother and sister in law purchased it after smelling it on me. It’s fresh sweet rich and bright and put together but after using it for such a long time I got bored of it and stopped enjoying it any more it just wasn’t special anymore but it’s a scent that you could never go wrong with it’s simple and I don’t think it‘d offend anyone and the performance is so good lasts for so long and the sillage is good as well. I still find it nice but I think I need a break from it for a while

Reading these reviews with fascination and can’t help but wonder if the reason it comes off generic, boring or even cheap is because since its launch it has been replicated and emulated so many times. I remember when it first came out and I smelled it on my friend and was like “omg what IS that?!” ...it smelled so sweet, classy and unique. When I got myself a bottle, it was crazy because so many women had the same reaction to me. It absolutely does not get this reaction any more but I still love it! This must be my first experience of a scent I love becoming dated! Slightly citrusy, sweet white floral suitable for cooler weather and night time.

I love it! It’s sweet, but not sickly. I like the honey note, it’s not cloying at all. I am reticent to artificial honey scents in products because usually it smells off putting to me, but this one was a pleasant surprise! In the opening, the most proeminent notes are the white florals and the raspberries. The amber gives it body and depth. It’s not groundbreaking, yes, but it smells good, and makes me feel good wearing it. I think it’s a safe blind buy and a safe perfume to gift someone. It definitely going to be my most used perfume in spring/summer, since i don’t think it’s cloying at all.

The perfume tells a story of a strong confident lady who makes boss moves. I remember the very first time I had this scent on I got some many compliments that day! The weather was nice and sunny 🌞 the sweet honey nectar and flowers 💐 dancing off of my warm skin. We get so caught up in the hype every perfume has to be expensive or niche to smell good. To be honest many designers took a bite offthis baby right here. Who cares what others think wear what makes you smell good and special. I might consider 🤔 layering this with I want choo and watch them follow me like bees 🐝 😅

Finally I got my hands on this extraordinary beautiful perfume, and, it's a very BIG bottle!!! Every woman back than smelled the same when Lady Million entered my hometown Bergen, Norway, and, l have been sniffing it a million times, and never could forget "she..." "She" went straight into 1st place in my wardrobe by herself, and she shall stay there until "Dovre faller"!!! All compliments are already said, and, "Dovre" is a big mountain in Norway, and, it will take millions of years until it will disappear from the map...

After 16 very long years, I decided to order my past sexy perfume & u til now, IT DID NOT DISAPPOINT! Still gorgeous, the only thing I smell now that I know perfume notes more, is I can definitely smell the patchouli which I’m not a big fan of when it’s noticeable. But I realized with body spray, it kinda settles down & you can’t smell anymore. VERY happy with my purchase! I’m glad I took the 50ml not 30, because even the bottle is fantastic & on 30ml the top design it a put different. It’s a cap not a sprayer.

Delicate, honeyed florals and a raspberry note. Like breakfast crapes drenched in honey and jam, though somehow not overwhelming. This perfume changed my opinion on honey in fragrance. I prefer how it smells in the cold, but it retains a lightness all year round. Someone else wrote a review saying this smells weaker in the warm weather-- weirdly enough, I agree. She does not have a brash personality, Lady Million is well blended and smooth. Good lasting power to my nose, especially on clothes.

oh I LOVE you lady million! smells exactly how you'd imagine the girl in it's commercial smells. Very gold(en). I don't understand how can anyone not like it + it's a complement getter. Men have loved this. It is not heavy at all. It is VERY chic, very luxurious, alluring and just yum. It's just where I live everyone wore it for so long and it was so popular that there is no way I would wear this now, when the boom dies down I'll fall in love with it even more again I'm sure.

Sparkling, sexy & confident is how I would describe lady million... it also makes me feel that way when wearing it! I find the white florals hit me at the first spritz which then mellows into the fruitier/ softer notes with honey being one of the more prominent notes. This is a classic night out scent for me & I would wear it in the day but this feels more suited to the evening. This isnt a scent I get bored of & would recommend it if you want to try something new!

Beautifully jasmine is blended with honey and raspberry, it's not too floral it's not too sweet, i liked the cfreed white flowers at first sniff but it's too white floral that it becomes too nauseatic for me, but lady million is well blended and well managed fragrance, that has white floral and sweetness but both are blended in such a way that it never bothers you. Sillage is moderate but longevity is good and scent is just awesome. Definitely will buy it again.

Now THAT's the longevity every drug store perfume should have. It's a fragrance I always go back to and I love it in cooler months. It's addictive and so well mixed. Well done to all Perfumers who worked on Lady Million. I stay loyal to this classic and I'm not interested in other version of LM. I tried some but OG is the best. Some people say it's basic but that's clearly playing to its' strengths. A fragrance like this doesn't need to be over-complicated.

A floral fruity fragrance from the house of Paco Rabanne. The opening of this one is juicy, and fruity with the raspberry, neroli and hint of Amalfi lemon. The heart consists of the jasmine, gardenia and African orange flower while the dry down is patchouli, white honey and amber. The sweetness in this one is counter-balance by the underneath soapy bitterness making it a perfect one. silage and longevity are amazing. Sexy, sensuous and feminine.
