Paco Rabanne Olympéa Legend EdP 80 ml

Product Information

I think this is a little too sweet for super hot days but works fine for summer nights and cooler weather. The plum seems enriched with a hint of rum, it smells heavy and syrupy and the salt gives it that little something. Back to Olympea, there's some fruitiness that i just can't identify wafting a little throuought the day, some kind of red berry?

I hate bashing a perfume so much especially since I know everyone is different and I have seen some really good reviews but I just can't find any other words to describe how I feel about this scent. I can smell musk but it's not the musk alone that is throwing me off so much and again, I just can't figure it out. Your sweet scent is everything that those sweet people around me could smell when I walk by them on Sugar street number 57, with you, my sweetie on my skin of vanilla color. like straight up liquor when u spray it now with maybe a drop of the legend perfume that I loved so much.Strange concoction and it further solidifies for me that I don't like salt or plums, at least in perfume. The oriental blend opens with the enticing notes of salty plum and voluptuous apricot, leading to a heart that combines exotic ginger flower and soft floral notes.

It will be the perfect fall winter fragrance for me, I could easily see this being my Signature for that time of year. The drydown is a little hint of the original olympea but with plum, apricot and a whole tonne of tonka added. Apply this exquisite perfume to your pulse points, such as your wrists and neck, for a subtle yet captivating scent that will leave you feeling confident and alluring throughout the day. This a beautiful coconut scent that it’s very well balanced once you get over the first notes which can be slightly overwhelming, but trust me the dry down is to die for.It was great in the warm salty air of Mexico and it reminds me of a tropical vacation while I’m at home in the gloom of Seattle. Vanilla and plum rule here giving it an earthy darkness that is broken by a bright salty sea spray under a full moon. if you're wanting an olympea that truly is beast mode then definitely go for the intense, i can still smell that on my skin the following day!

I initially just wanted the original and possibly intense, but Legend was recommended to me out of the flankers. One of the laws, familiar from cooking, is also true in this fragrance; Add salt to the soup and so you can add sweetness as well! I get the comparisons to Cheirosa 40', as a matter of fact I layered them together today and to me it feels like it's almost the same fragrance. Then I wore it again the next day, 3 spritz and after that I got nauseous so I had to shower but after shower the smell was still a bit with me. Eu sinto esse doce,porém acompanhado desse licor de ameixa,com esse “que” alcoólico,da um equilíbrio trazendo um leve “ardidinho”ao aroma.I might smell a tiiiiny bit of salt and those sand notes that only appear after a long time in the dry down. The sillage not the greatest one but in the very first hours everybody and I mean everybody will smell you. It's muddled and overdone and the beautiful simple skin scent of Olympea Intense did not need to be messed with. I was enchanted in the first minutes after spraying (very unique), however with time it turns into pure ambery vanilla with definitely present tonka beans and isn’t that interesting. Many won't know how to appreciate this one but if you enjoy original Olympea but want a more in your face version, I'd go for legend.
