Great, semi-transparent take on a vintage feminine chypre
This one took me by surprise, its amazing but i tried to wear it and its too feminine and grand for me, i felt too uncomfortable and out of my element when i wear this.
Now to the scent, its very complex and has 3 phases: 1st one is the peppery green citrus blast in the opening, its refreshing and provides a contrast to what is later to come. After that comes 2nd phase, a powdery grand floral mid, it has a funky indolic smell to it, but never goes full animalic. But the funk is there for sure. 3rd phase is the resinous labdanum patchouli combo, also slightly funky and dirty. This fragrance doesnt have oakmoss, but it has that chypre contrast feeling to it for sure. Along with Antaeus and Cristalle, these are the best Chanels chypre offerings you can get.
