Spicy and pleasing One Million
Fragrance description: The fragrance reminds me a bit of YSL la nuit de Lhomme in combination with the normal One Million. Sweet and spicy is a very good description. However, I don't find it smoky, as others have described it here. Maybe I'm already a bit hardened by the Amouage Interlude 53 :D
Fragrance progression: The fragrance starts directly with full power cardamom spice and a sweet mandarin. It can only be compared to the normal One Million to a limited extent. The Royal version is definitely more mature due to the spiciness it brings. The fragrance also remains sweet and spicy until the end, only with pleasant lavender and sage notes added later.
Compliments: I have already received several compliments in the office. My wife also likes the fragrance. I think most people will like the fragrance.
Longevity: The fragrance lasts about 10 hours on the skin and a few hours longer on clothing. But you would expect that from a perfume concentration.
Sillage: Unfortunately, I don't notice the fragrance as well after a few hours. but I have also received compliments where I could no longer smell the fragrance on myself. Unfortunately, it makes me smell-blind at some point. But that doesn't mean that it's the same for everyone and that others can no longer smell the fragrance!
Usability: I think it works for everything. Even for everyday office life or summer, if you don't spray much. The pleasantness of the fragrance is also very good.
Bottle: The bottle looks nice, but the quality is, let's put it mildly, very inferior. The integrated sprayer in the bottle is unfortunately no better. But maybe I'm already too spoiled by my Amouage or Creed fragrances.
Price/performance: The retail price is around 120 euros for 100 ml. (2024) If it's on offer, you can buy it without hesitation. The only thing I find a little outrageous for the price is the bottle. Looks are definitely not everything.
Overall assessment: I would rate the fragrance 8/10.
