The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2015 by Rabanne, 1 Million Merry Millions is a Woody Spicy fragrance created by perfumers Christophe Raynaud, Olivier Pescheux, and Michel Girard. The composition begins with a bright burst of mint and blood mandarin, cutting through the air like a fresh breeze. These top notes quickly give way to a heart of spices, rose, and cinnamon, creating an unexpected warmth that balances the citrus freshness. As it settles into its woody base of leather, patchouli, and amber, 1 Million Merry Millions becomes a rich blend of contrasts — crisp yet warm, spicy yet floral.
Apply two sprays for a balanced experience — the minty top notes are fleeting but powerful, while the spicy heart and woody base last through the day. This fragrance reads best close to skin rather than filling a room, making it perfect for an office setting where subtlety is key.

Christophe Raynaud
Architect first, craftsman secondChristophe Raynaud is a perfumer who describes himself as a craftsman with the sensitivity of an artist. He begins each fragrance with a raw olfactory block, working for hours to shape it as a sculptor would — first as architect, then as craftsman.
“At first, I am the architect, and then I become the craftsman.”
