I have another perfume sample to share
today. Again, I can’t remember how long I have had this one, but I know I haven’t
smelled it before. I always mean’t to test it sooner, but didn’t for reason, so
now is the time!
It is Olympéa by Paco Rabanne
and it is a 1.5ml spritzer sample of the eau de parfum.
“The
divine perfume with a fresh oriental signature; it’s sparkling green tangerine
top notes reveal a unique salty vanilla accord. Then it’s addictive heart of
captivating jasmine and ginger Lilly scents unveils a sensual ambergris and
cashmere wood base”
Launched: 2015
Type: Oriental Floral / Feminine
Notes
Top: Water Jasmine, Green
Mandarin and Ginger Flower.
Middle: Vanilla and Salt.
Base: Cashmere Wood, Ambergris
and Sandalwood.
I wasn’t really sure what to expect from
this fragrance, I assumed it would smell like an ‘old lady’ floral but I was
very wrong. It smells quite sensual and it is a perfect example of a deep
oriental floral scent. I can really smell the Water Jasmine, Ambergris and
Sandalwood notes. I really do like this scent and probably would wear it. It
reminds me of the Lady Million (my favourite) fragrance, but deeper and more
mature smelling. Some hints of it also remind me of the Mugler Alien Man Fusion
fragrance. I would say it is more of an evening scent as it is strong in a deep
way, but it is not too overpowering. I would also class it as unisex, but maybe
bordering more on the masculine side. I do recommend that you give this one
this whiff; I wouldn’t recommend blind buying it though as it will surprise
you. I probably won’t buy a bottle as I already have two bottles of the Lady
Million fragrance and I’m not sure if Olympéa is maybe too on the masculine
side for my tastes, even though I do like it. I feel like I would like to smell
it on a man more than on myself.
You can purchase the Paco Rabanne Olympéa Eau De Parfum in 30ml (£48.00), 50ml (£64.50) and 80ml (£82.50) from PacoRabanne.com.
