{"product_id":"rabanne-1-million-eau-de-toilette-gift-set-bts371876","title":"1 Million Eau de Toilette Gift Set","description":"\u003cp\u003eSets are how most fragrance is bought in December, and Rabanne 1 Million Eau de Toilette Gift Set is one of the few that needs no explanation when it is handed over.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe scent itself is built on a straightforward contrast. Blood mandarin brings a deep, almost syrupy citrus sweetness, grapefruit answers it with a bitter edge, and mint runs cold across the top of both for the opening few minutes. Then the temperature changes completely. Cinnamon arrives dry and hot and stays at the front for hours, with rose beneath it adding body and a slight jammy richness rather than any sense of a flower. Leather is the smooth, polished kind, amber keeps a thick sweetness burning underneath, and Indian patchouli supplies an earthy, faintly bitter base that stops the whole arrangement collapsing into syrup.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is an eau de toilette, which here means it can be worn more freely than a concentrated version without emptying a room, though restraint is still rewarded. One or two sprays will see out an evening, and the trail stays on a scarf for considerably longer than that.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBoxed, it answers the question of what to give a man who has not asked for anything in particular. If he wears fragrance at all he will know this one, and if he does not, it is a confident place to start.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe house is French and takes its name from the designer Paco Rabanne, who showed a debut collection in 1966. Perfumery arrived through the Spanish group Puig, which established the fragrance division in 1968 and became owner of the brand in 1987. The first name was retired from the packaging in recent years. Christophe Raynaud, Michel Girard and Olivier Pescheux are credited with the composition.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rabanne","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54540637667655,"sku":"BTS371876","price":110.4,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/5049\/1463\/files\/download_bea7bdef-4505-4617-8fc2-131abad2bbcf.jpg?v=1786991689","url":"https:\/\/thescentvault.ie\/products\/rabanne-1-million-eau-de-toilette-gift-set-bts371876","provider":"The Scent Vault","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
