Chloé L'Eau de Parfum Lumineuse Chloé 2023

Where is Chloe and what have you done with her? Anyone expecting the typical Chloe DNA will be disappointed here. I've already tested Lumineuse several times over the past few days and I'm not warming up to it.

I personally don't smell any of the rose, which I usually find successful in Chloe. I perceive amber and a powdery-dry, synthetic vanilla, accompanied by jasmine and a fruity nuance that I had interpreted as orange before I read the notes.
The powder synthetic also remains throughout and reminds me of a note I've noticed more often in perfumes lately; in Un Jardin à Cythère dry grass is mentioned as a note, in "Memori - Coeur Azuki | Kenzo" rice/vanilla. In the dry down, all that really remains is powder and something slightly resinous.

I would like to like it, but unfortunately it gives me a headache, even though the notes actually fall right into my sweet tooth.
Maybe I can fall in love with it if someone else wears it...
