Paco Rabanne CALANDRE Eau De Toilette 100ml (3.4 Fl.Oz) EDT perfume

Product Information

Lady Million Fabulous does not need to fight for the limelight. The crown falls on its rightful queen. So if you're looking for a feminine, seductive, but playful scent, Lady Million Eau de Parfum will not disappoint. That the family were from Catalonia had mattered to Rabanne. He was a Basque, born Francisco Rabaneda Cuervo, in Pasaia, near San Sebastian, the son of a colonel in the Republican army executed by Francoists during the Spanish civil war.

Following Rabanne’s retirement in 1999, his ready-to-wear lines went into hiatus, but were revived in 2011 under the creative direction of Manish Arora. The current designer is Julien Dossena, who took over in 2013. The fruity and aquatic fusion also makes Olympéa Legend a wonderful scent for summertime. Many users imagine enjoying a piña colada while idling by the beach. Born in 1934 in the Basque Country, he escaped the Spanish Civil War by fleeing to France at the age of five alongside his mother, a head seamstress at Balenciaga. Olympéa gives you the power to step into a room and make heads turn like the goddesses themselves blessed you. If vanilla has always been your go-to scent, you're going to love Olympéa Eau de Parfum. Olympéa places emphasis on salty vanilla and harmonizes with a dash of cashmere wood and ambergris. The parent company of Paco Rabanne, who has been working with the brand since the 1960s and launched the perfume Calandre in Spain, France and the US in 1969, also paid tribute.Lady Million's scent brings forth an image of classic, Hollywood, feminine beauty – a strong and gentle woman with a sweet smile who always appears put together. Lady Million initially welcomes you with the sweet embrace of raspberry and citrus with a slight hint of neroli. Alongside French designers Pierre Cardin and Andre Courreges, he helped upset the status quo of Paris fashion of the time, earning him the moniker of "enfant terrible". I’ve heard Yves Saint Laurent Rive Gauche is a sister fragrance to Calandre, but it’s been too long since I’ve smelled it for me to comment. I can say, though, that if you want something in the same vein but sweeter and rosier, try Chloé L'Eau de Chloé. For a grassier take with a hint of lemon, Chanel Cristalle Eau de Toilette works. For something more ladylike, try Estée Lauder White Linen. Paco Rabanne Ultrared takes us through a field of ripe strawberries and is reminiscent of the first flowers of spring. Paco Rabanne Ultrared is perfect for women with festive hearts and makes for a great day-to-day fragrance. This is a wonderfully light fragrance that's perfect for any time of the day.

With this perfume, the Spanish designer made himself known in the world of selective perfumery. An elegant and sophisticated composition, just like its haute couture designs. A classic and formal scent, perfect for any time of day, paying a clear tribute to Rabanne's passion for the female gender. This scent settles to become reminiscent of that iconic freshness after rainfall. It's unique, evocative, and distinct while still being subtle. Calandre brings a level of maturity to the table that few fragrances can match. This addictive top note then gives way to fresh pear and creamy sorbet, allowing the perfume to reach that hearty femininity. Finally, it settles in an undercurrent of subtle vanilla and cashmere woods, giving it enough musk to soften the edges. Marc Puig, chairman and chief executive at the fashion company, also said: "A major personality in fashion, his was a daring, revolutionary and provocative vision, conveyed through a unique aesthetic. Currently we can describe this perfume as a traditional fragrance, which invites us to return to the past and allows us to relive great moments.YOUR STYLE ... A great combination of floral notes such as lily, jasmine, rose, geranium and hyacinth star in the wake of this perfume. Along with them, we also highlight citrus aromas and warmer sparkles such as amber and musk, thus giving rise to a perfectly balanced fragrance. Perfumer Michel Hy developed Calandre, and it launched in 1969. Its notes include aldehydes, bergamot, green notes, geranium, orris root, jasmine, lily of the valley, rose, amber, oakmoss, musk, sandalwood and vetiver. (Michel Hy was a genius of the green chypre — he also worked on Yves Saint Laurent Rive Gauche, Yves Saint Laurent Y and Balmain Ivoire.) In French, the word “calandre” means “grille,” as in the grille on a car or a radiator. It also means “mangle,” a machine that irons linens when you feed them through its long rollers. With Calandre’s feel of freshness and molar-tingling metal, the name fits.
