Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - 1 Million Lucky EDT
A daring and addictive spin on the sweet-woody genre with luscious plum and hazelnut over a honeyed, woody base. Powerful, playful, and impossible to ignore, 1 Million Lucky is a statement-maker for nights that need excitement.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Plum Lucky EDP
Plum Lucky is Alexandria UK's dupe of Paco Rabanne 1 Million Lucky, borrowing the plum-hazelnut-honey gourmand formula. The fruit-nut opening reads sweeter and less refined than Rabanne's original, and the cedar-patchouli base is thinner with much shorter legs, but the playful fruity-gourmand personality is a fair, budget echo.
