Creamy Stuff
A new Chanel men's release? In 2024? Bring it on! “Superleggera” is a successful, albeit somewhat safe combination of “Allure Homme Sport” and “Edition Blanche” - and it is precisely the latter that delights me quite a bit…
“Superleggera” has everything a high-quality designer workhorse needs. It works wonderfully in leisure as well as fitness, from office to beer tent. Chanel's fresh-citrusy men’s DNA from recent years, which some have felt has been relegated to the pantydropper category for ages. But now it’s significantly creamier and… cake-like? Tart-like? And that without being a true gourmand? Yes, that works. Chanel has tested this extensively. It could be too sweet, soft, and waffle-like for the players and influencers of this world. It doesn't exactly pull every schlübbi down. But for me, it’s a great scent. And so it may go for some perfumes that take care of the scent and themselves - not just about external effects, prestige, followers, hype, and pillow talk. Musk pleasantly punches through. The grapefruit doesn’t remind too much of deodorants and shower gels. A slight saltiness can probably still be attributed to its own identity. Otherwise, safe and sound and smell.
Bottle: Chanel Standard
Sillage: with a suspicion of compliments
Longevity: doesn’t fade quickly… 8 hours!
Conclusion: not a game changer from Chanel… but a delicious, fluffy combination of some of their bestsellers from the last two decades. “Superleggera” has something, but it’s more of a Best Of. A bit of its own character is missing. At a high level.

I think it reminds me a bit of Joop Nightflight.
