The verdict: On longevity they're evenly matched (long (7–9h) vs long (8-10h)) — skin chemistry will decide. Paco Rabanne 1 Million projects harder (very strong sillage), so it owns a room — and an office can be too small for it. They live in the same scent territory — sweet and spicy against warm spicy and tobacco — which is exactly why people cross-shop them.
