Unsweetened Cocoa Cedes to Powdery Purple Flower Drydown

The dominant unsweetened cocoa note opening of Nez à Nez MARRON CHIC reminded me immediately of La Perla ECLIX. From there, the two diverge quite a bit, with MARRON CHIC drying down to a fine powdery floral iris and violet perfume with only a touch of gourmand feeling. I do not find this composition all that sweet, and I believe that the sweetness is more from the naturally sweet quality of violet than from added sugar or vanilla.

MARRON CHIC is a subtle creation, with a near skin-scent feeling once it has dried down. I like this perfume, but I think that I prefer ECLIX for my cocoa fix and INFUSION D'IRIS for a powdery iris.

dull chestnut

Strong mealy smell at first -- a little bit chocolatey. A little like Tootsie Roll candy. Not very strong. Drydown is powdery & sharp, nothing I’d go out of my way for. Four hours later, a faint powder smell. I think people who want the smell of marron (chestnut) would probably be better off with Wickle Chestnut & Vetiver,if that's still around. (061309)

Unfortunately not a dream scent.....

....as I had hoped. Based on the descriptions and comments, I had high expectations for Marron Chic and was unfortunately disappointed.

On me, it initially smells like bitter cocoa with leather-soaked oranges. Oh no, I really don't like that.
After about 10-15 minutes, the scent does improve when the iris makes an appearance; the bitterness lessens, and the composition becomes slightly more floral and especially powdery without becoming a touch sweeter.
The base also develops rather herbaceous, smoky, a bit resinous. It tends to lean more towards the oriental direction, but unfortunately for me, nothing becomes gourmand or cozy, just still very powdery, but without a chocolate note.
There is a leather-like note that runs throughout the entire scent progression, which is not listed at all.
I can very well imagine Marron Chic on a man, as it reveals a rugged facet on me.

Nevertheless, it is a very interesting scent with an exciting scent progression, which I, however, do not want to wear on my skin. It just doesn’t fit, very unfortunate.

One good thing came from this test, though; I have now found my gem from this series, namely: Bouche Baie, which I like extremely well.

A truly cheeky hit!

Today I tested Marron Chic for the fourth time. Not because I find it difficult to describe the scent, but because each test is even more enjoyable than the last.

Marron Chic is for me the most beautiful gourmand-woody fragrance I have encountered so far.

I cannot perceive any of the listed flowers or citrus notes. From the moment of spraying, the scent is very gourmand, as if - very well dosed - Ylang-Ylang is included or perhaps Tuberose, both of which are not listed. Marron Chic is also slightly sweet - without being truly sweet, and beautifully soft woody with a very light smokiness. This is likely caused by the Iris, which gives it a certain powderiness, without stealing my breath away, as it often does.

The creaminess of Marron Chic is simply irresistible! I can't stop sniffing my left arm. Even now, after many hours, the scent is so beautiful, so enticing, so soft, so gourmand. It feels exceptionally calming to me.

The fairly good sillage ensures a good scent distribution, and it lasts and lasts and lasts.

In the base, a little green comes in, the sweetness completely disappears, but not the softness and creaminess.

Marron Chic is a cuddle fragrance par Excellence and is already on my wish list. Many thanks to the dear donor of this sample, which I will savor until the last drop.

Somehow I've lost my appetite

Marron Chic immediately brings to my mind a pastry chef, with ample curves, soft and cozy, with full hair and charming dimples, joyfully mixing her baking ingredients. She combines vanilla, tonka bean, chestnut purée, cocoa, and honey to create wonderful delicacies. One wants to try each of her cakes, to bite into the sweet treats, again and again, more and more. And our master baker stirs and kneads and folds and decorates and spreads and works up a sweat -

and well, that’s exactly the problem! A nasty smell of sweat sneaks in, barely noticeable at first but unmistakable, and unfortunately growing stronger. And that’s it for me, I just want a shower and then a sour pickle!
