Fame by Paco Rabanne
Floral Woody Musk
Alberto Morillas, Dora Baghriche, Fabrice Pellegrin and Marie Salamagne
Paco Rabanne is famous for its sweet “voluptuous” fragrances for women which I have not been swayed by so far. Fame is the newest release from 2022, a tropical vanilla scent with a lovely velvety mango accord.
It smells like pina colada or any creamy fruit cocktail you would sip on a beach bar. It is gorgeous and feminine. Likeable and free-spirited. You can spray a ton of product on your holiday, let it sink to your sun-kissed skin and be happy. It is not as obnoxious as Olympéa but far more laid back and safe.
Some frag community members think that the bottle is a joke, I think it is cool and different; moreover, it reflects the juice inside.
The pressing question is “Do we need Fame”? As much as I think it is a wonderful aroma, I do not feel pressured to purchase a full bottle. Fame did not wow me so to speak. I do not wake up and want to put it on my skin or clothes. But that is my side of the story. If you are a Paco Rabanne collector or looking for a smooth tropical perfume, you are going to be pleased for life.
