Oh my goodness - what does one understand nowadays under CHYPRE???
Okay, I am quite old and don't know much about fashion.
Forty years ago, only a very small group of bitter, herbal scents was referred to as Chypre. In the meantime, the circle keeps getting wider - well, times change.

‘Modern’ ladies who want to smell like a raspberry praline - go ahead.
