OldMoney Insta vs Stubbornness
Essence is chic, ladylike, French, but more mainstream fruity sweetness than the Ur Gabrielle.
At first I thought it was beautiful, now the fragrance is too heavy for my nose and almost goes into the fruitiness of e.g. Paradox, or also into the floweriness of J'adore, without an edge.
The radiant, golden-brightness that I like so much in Gabrielle Chanel Eau de Parfum is increasingly lost here.
While G. strolls lively through the alleys of Paris, Gabrielle Chanel Essence sits in a café, somewhat languidly. She is aware of her French classicism, but is a bit of an Instagram influencer - beautiful and teases this Old Money aesthetics trend in a rather unimaginative way.
Everything done right, but lacking charisma and originality.
for me, Gabrielle Chanel Eau de Parfum is the more authentically elegant Parisian beauty, with more individual flair, even if the fragrance doesn't come off so well in places.
It has a distinctive aura of its own that I don't find in Essence.
Essence is too fruity, sugary and dull for me.
Unfortunately, quite pretty, but ...Mais non.

I like this day very much
Gabrielle has swapped her boucle mini and boxy jacket for a curry yellow linen safari jumpsuit today and is visiting her neighbor Jour. Today she is less elegant, but a little more adventurous.
Off we go into the jungle, or tropical garden,...
