In this article we’ll be looking at my review of the Paco Rabanne 1 Million mens cologne fragrance.
When choosing a cologne, you don’t just consider if it smells good.
You would want something that has that extra appeal, that unique scent that adds attractiveness and sensuality.
You want the kind of scent that would draw people to you, something that would entice women.
The only way for you to find out that is to wear the scent yourself so you can see if it suits your taste.
But so far among one of the sexiest scents that I’ve ever tried is the Paco Rabanne 1 Million.
Although it took me quite some time to try Paco Rabanne when it finally hit the high street, I still did and it was worth it.

Product Description
Paco Rabanne 1 Million is a signature fragrance created by Christopher Raynaud, Olivier Pescheux and Michel Girard.
The cologne made its debut in 2008 and became an instant hit with its very masculine scent.
The cologne is said to be created to give masculinity and seduction a boost which makes it a perfect cologne for evening use.
It has this very striking and crisp scent with woodsy notes, a scent that really smell great and elegant.
By wearing this fragrance, it gives you that woodsy with a combination of citrus notes which gives you that really nice scent.
The perfect blend of the different elements completes the quality of this scent.
Composition: With the way how the Paco Rabanne is beautifully packaged, you would surely expect much with this fragrance.
True to its word that it is name, the Paco Rabanne 1 Million is a great choice.
The moment the fragrance opens up it give you that woodsy notes followed by the notes of amber, cinnamon, patchouli, citrus and floral.
Some say that the cologne appears to be slightly feminine and I also kind of noticed that in the scent.
In fact, I know a few women who say that they also wear Paco Rabanne 1 Million.
But between masculinity and the softness side of this fragrance, there is no doubt that it still gives you that nice masculine scent.
The very first notes can be quite too strong but it gets softer as the other components of the fragrance come in.
When to Wear It: Paco Rabanne unlike other colognes can be worn for both casual and formal events.
You can wear it during the day time or night time depending on your preference.
Wearing this cologne is very versatile as you can use it anytime and anywhere.
But in my view, its best use is for evening wear or if you are going out for a casual event. It has that really woodsy and striking scent that really that is appealing.
Longevity: In terms of longevity, it is not bad but it is not so great either.
A few sprays can already give you that scent you desire. But its longevity will not last the distance.
It wouldn’t last for the whole day and night especially if you are outside.
Nonetheless, it can still give you that lasting fragrance which is not so bad for the quality of scent that you can get for such price.
Conclusion
My thoughts on Paco Rabanne are based on my personal opinion.
So far after using it several times, I can say that this cologne is worth the purchase.
Is it the best that I’ve ever had? No. But then I like the composition of this scent.
It is a good blend and combination of masculinity and a touch of softness in it which is very seductive and appealing.
This cologne is a good choice for evening wear and for casual occasions with its very striking and woodsy scent with citrus and floral notes.
With just a few sprays, I can already have the fragrance I desire. The only setback is that it is not as long lasting as what I expected it to be.
Over-all, it is still worth a try. If given the choice as to whether I would repurchase or not, I would of course still buy it.
