Olympēa Intense Rabanne 2017

Paco Rabanne... I only knew back then because my dad owned some of the fragrances. In my younger years, I had Black XS... which didn't really impress me at the time... otherwise, I would remember it better... I never owned Lady Million, it didn't really interest me... everyone seemed to smell like that fragrance... some note bothered me.
Then came Olympéa... the fragrance pyramid sounds promising... so off to the perfume store to test it... however, it developed on my skin not as I had hoped... I gave up on Paco Rabanne's fragrances... this won't work... then I read about the intense version... since I usually do better with the intense or elixir variants of various fragrances, I tried my luck again and gave Paco Rabanne a 2nd chance. Lo and behold... it was worth it! It develops wonderfully and I can perceive the individual fragrance notes well.
However, 1-2 sprays are enough, otherwise it feels overwhelming to me and my surroundings.
The longevity is about 6-7 hours for me.
In the cold winter, I can imagine it even better... a cozy, warming winter scent!
