How the top picks smell
Rabanne Invictus (Eau de Toilette, 2013) opens with marine notes and grapefruit and ends on ambergris, gaiac wood and oakmoss; overall it reads as cool ocean breeze, grapefruit and bay leaf. For Rabanne 1 Million Elixir (2022), expect warm vanilla cream with sweet apple and spice: apple and davana up top, vanilla, cedarwood and patchouli underneath. Rabanne 1 Million Lucky (Eau de Toilette, 2018) comes across as juicy plum, grapefruit and creamy honey on woody cedar, with greengage plum and grapefruit at the start and oakmoss, patchouli and vetiver at the base.
