Women's Perfume Essens W127 — a Fragrance Inspired by Paco Rabanne Lady Million

A floral, fruity fragrance for women who love to be the centre of attention

🏛️ The Legend of Paco Rabanne Lady Million

This fragrance was introduced in 2010 and instantly became a symbol of glamour and luxury. The composition was created by three world-renowned perfumers — Anne Flipo, Béatrice Piquet and Dominique Ropion. Anne Flipo is known as a virtuoso floralist, the creator of Star Magnolia for Jo Malone. Béatrice Piquet is the author of Dior Hypnotic Poison and Cartier Baiser Volé. Dominique Ropion is a master of sillage hits such as Dior Pure Poison and Frédéric Malle Carnal Flower.

🔗 A direct child of the Angel revolution. Lady Million continues the «fruitchouli» direction (fruit plus patchouli) that Angel started and that became one of the most commercially successful profiles in perfumery. Specifically, Lady Million is neroli, raspberry, jasmine, honey and patchouli, brighter and more glamorous than its predecessors.

👫 A male companion. Lady Million was created as a pair to 1 Million (2008), the men’s fragrance with the same golden ingot that became one of the best-selling men’s perfumes of the 2000s. The paired strategy is simple, the men’s one is bold with cinnamon and lemon, the women’s one is seductive with raspberry and honey.

🌸 The fragrance pyramid. Top notes are neroli, lemon, bergamot and raspberry. The heart is jasmine, orange blossom, Arabian jasmine, ginger flower and tiare flower. The base is patchouli, honey, amber and cedar. Raspberry, not abstract «berries», is the specific note that together with neroli creates the sparkling start. In the heart is a dense jasmine accord with orange blossom.

💎 The bottle. The golden ingot is not «in the shape of an ingot» but a golden diamond. The design was developed by the studio NO Good Company (Fabien Baron and team), which also created bottles for Calvin Klein, Burberry and other major brands. The metallic layer on the glass is a reference to the fashion past of Paco Rabanne, who in the 1960s became famous for dresses made of metal plates.

How it sounds and wears. «Raspberry lemonade with jasmine and honey settling on patchouli» is a recognizable description. The start is sparkling, sweet and sour. In the heart is dense jasmine with orange blossom and ginger flower. The base is warm, earthy, honey smooths the bitterness of patchouli. Longevity 6–8 hours, noticeable sillage. Fragrantica rating is 3.76 out of 5 with 18,000+ votes.

⏳ More than a decade and a half. In 2026 the fragrance turns 16, and during this time it has spawned a whole series of flankers — Lady Million Prive (2016, with vetiver and cocoa), Lady Million Empire (2019, with goji berries), Lady Million Fabulous (2021, gourmand) and Lady Million Royal (2024, raspberry and tonka bean). But the golden original of 2010 remains the reference point.

📖 Stories of Four Notes

Neroli — a refined floral-honey note with a light bitterness. In perfumery it sounds elegant and fresh, adding sophistication and charm to the composition. It is neroli that makes the opening of the fragrance so noble and memorable.

Raspberry — a juicy berry with bright sweetness and a light sourness. In the top notes it creates a feeling of joy and playfulness, and together with lemon and neroli it unfolds especially juicy and life-affirming.

Jasmine — a delicate flower with a sweet depth. In the heart of the composition it gives the fragrance femininity and sensuality, and together with gardenia and orange blossom it creates a luxurious floral bouquet.

White Honey — a soft, enveloping sweetness with a floral shade. In the base it adds warmth and comfort to the fragrance, and together with patchouli it creates a velvety, lasting trail that is impossible to forget.
