Chanel Perfumes

There seems to be so many Chanel perfumes.

I really don't like Chanel No 5. What are your recommendations for their fragrances? I don't like heavy musky scents...

Coco Mademoiselle. I love it and always get compliments.

MyGirlDaisy · 10/11/2018 19:08

Another fan of Coco Mademoiselle here but Cristalle is lovely light and fresh and I tried Gabrielle which is new recently and that’s a bit lighter too.

OHolyNightOwl · 10/11/2018 19:14

I have had Allure, Chance, Christalle, Coco Mademoiselle..and others I can't remember. They are all very elegant and long lasting, but none of them turned into a favourite on me.

NoMalone · 10/11/2018 19:15

Cristalle! Lovely but hard to find.

OHolyNightOwl · 10/11/2018 19:16

Thinking about it, while none of the Chanel perfumes smelled delicious on me, almost all Dolce&Gabbana perfumes do! Why would that be?

PhilODox · 10/11/2018 19:18

I like Allure, my DD likes Coco Mademoiselle.

Littlelambpeep · 10/11/2018 19:19

I have just bought chanel noir and I really like it as special ocassion perfume

LadyLapsang · 10/11/2018 19:57

I like No 19 and Beige.

Carbivorous · 10/11/2018 20:00

Coco 🥰

burblife · 10/11/2018 20:01

Coco mademoiselle is now my go to. I also like Chance.

Bezalelle · 10/11/2018 20:02

Misia. Smells like Parma Violets!

RainbowsArePretty · 10/11/2018 20:02

Coco Mademoiselle is beautiful.

Chance is nice too

FabulousTomatoes · 10/11/2018 20:06

I’ve always like Coco and Allie Sensuelle

FabulousTomatoes · 10/11/2018 20:06

Allure even Hmm

ggirl · 10/11/2018 20:08

I wear Chanel Beige , I like all of the exclusif scents except bois des iles which is too sweet and powdery for me.

Maraki · 10/11/2018 20:09

I love Cristalle in the spring, and 19, and coco noir in the winter. So elegant and timeless

crockofcrackers · 10/11/2018 20:09

I always get compliments on Coco Mademoiselle Smile

MissMarplesKnitting · 10/11/2018 20:12

Chance but the eau fraiche one. Eau tender is nice too. Madamoiselle is lovely but seems to smell a bit icky on me.

BadgersBiggestFan · 10/11/2018 20:13

Chance Eau Tendre was the only perfume I wore for 5 years. It’s lovely.

Check out scent addict to let you try them all (hopefully Chanel is included in it).

IrisApfelRocks · 10/11/2018 20:15

Another vote for 19 and Beige

ggirl · 10/11/2018 20:21

sadly scent addict don't stock Chanel , you can get decants from Ebay

moonbells · 10/11/2018 20:24

5 smells bloody awful wrong on me, while 19 doesn't. Depends on your skin chemistry. Go a few times to a store and try two at a time (one on each wrist) and see whether they smell lovely or like cat pee Grin on you.
I don't know many of the others since I like 19 a lot and see no reason to switch! Also can't wear it to work as colleague is very sensitive to perfume.

mizu · 10/11/2018 21:09

Chanel Chance is MY perfume, have worn it for years. I love it.

RJnomore1 · 10/11/2018 21:17

Allure is pretty much the only perfume I wear

namechanged0983 · 10/11/2018 21:30

Chance. Have been wearing for 15 years!
