The Coco Perfume by Chanel was the first perfume that was released by the Chanel house after Coco Chanel passed away. The Coco Perfume by Chanel was designed by Jacques Polge and was designed to capture the style and the image of this truly important legend. The result was a fragrance that was rich in paradoxes, designed to reflect a truly exciting woman who was many different things and never, ever the same. The Coco Perfume by Chanel features a fruity bouquet of unique top notes including tangerine and peach, which are then joined by the spicy sharpness that comes from coriander. The middle notes, the true heart of the fragrance, include jasmine and rose surrounded by clove, orange and mimosa. Finally you have base notes of amber, vanilla and sandalwood which bring the composition to a soft and gentle end.
Notable Notes: The most notable notes for Coco Perfume by Chanel include Sandalwood, Amber, Vanilla, Mimosa, Orange, Jasmine, Rose, Coriander, Tangerine and Peach.
Recommended Use: The recommended use for Coco Perfume by Chanel is with evening wear or as a signature scent.
The Coco Perfume by Chanel is a perfume that has been around for a long time, having been released in the year 1984. Coco Chanel was a great and famous woman, and she inspired this perfume which was composed beautifully and exemplifies everything that Coco Chanel was really all about. This unique perfume comes packaged in an elegant black box with gold themes. The bottle is shaped as a square with a glass top although there is also a version of the bottle that is a tall rectangle featuring a black top. Both of the bottle designs feature the logo and designer titles. The perfume itself is a dark honey color, luxurious and spa like.
The Coco Perfume by Chanel is classic, mysterious, musky, charming, sexy and still largely modest despite it all. The fragrance has a scent to it that is decidedly oriental with spice and some floral to it. This is a concoction that includes orange blossom, mandarin orange, vanilla, jasmine and rose which exemplify all of the same traits as the woman herself. This is a floral oriental scent, not too sugary or sweet. It is a dreamy scent, but not too sweet or too overwhelming. This is a very diverse fragrance in comparison to Chanel No. 5. I find it to be significantly more corporeal in nature.
Coco Chanel was a charming, unique, gifted woman with so much culture and creativity, and the Coco Perfume by Chanel really exemplifies all of these traits in her. If you want to know what the woman was like, try a little Coco Perfume by Chanel and you will have a much better idea of who she was.
