My sister wears Coco Mlle very nicely. Thats just the way it is.and thats one thing that makes perfume so interesting. Im glad you found Coco, at least. Oh, Good God, Angela. I see your point, thoughthis would be a tough one for a man to pull off, I think. If you have a stuffy nose and are unable to blow your nose, use a humidifier to moisten the air. Maybe Chanel's statement about doubling Coco's earnings was merely grandstanding for the press, but Women's Wear Daily later reported Coco Mademoiselle raked in $21 million that first year.3 It also broke records by winning the FiFi for Prestige Fragrance in all the FiFi countries the United States, France, Germany, Spain, Italy, and Great Britain as well as being awarded the European Star of the Year. Does anybody know if Safari by Ralph Lauren still in production? But hey this is a perfume blog, not a business journal, you might be thinking. I think its one of the most feminine and sexy fragrances for women out there. I am going to go against the flow here because I absolutely love smelling CM on a woman. Oh, I dont mean that youre weird, but I havent smelled it, and anything called Brigitte. Must be the juice. My addy is chemstgeek at gmail dot com (just in case). Angela- I agree with your opinion on Ruemer. Too much on mepepper, burnt sugared apricots and vetiver extremebut faint and beautiful on her; very dry, crisp and chiffon-like. little tiny Spock-eyebrow abilities : the formative years! Its like you can just feel the gears shifting through all its phases needs a clutch replacement, lol. Oh good! I still keep my bottle though, because thats what I wore when OH and I started dating and its still the perfume that he seems to like best. The first time I smelled it on someone I was blown away , and now when I catch whiffs of it its all I can do not to close my eyes and inhale deeply. Its a symptom of several medical conditions and may be temporary or permanent. This and Chance Eau Fraiche are the only Chanel scents I like, and Im really considering getting this. I dont like it, but Im in your age group, I suspect, and our formative Chanel years were probably defined by Carol Bouquet and Esther whats her name with the big lips for No. Dont be apologetic! I mean, NOOOO!!! But new, A new study finds that roughly 86 percent of people with COVID-19 lose their sense of smell. I wore it for a while when it first came out and got compliments on it all the time. I particularly liked the phrase high-pitched floral SMACK! and also have to agree with the screechiness and profoundly irritating and considering the popularity (big $$) of this one , I thought I was just missing it somehowin spite of an SA assuring me that it was just wonderful .its times like that, that make me glad for my Spock-eyebrow ability. Top notes are Grapefruit, Mandarin Orange and Black Currant; middle notes are Orange Blossom, Jasmine, Ylang-Ylang, Tuberose, Lily-of-the-Valley, Pear and Pink Pepper; base notes are Musk, Sandalwood, Cashmeran and Orris. But after having it on for a while, it would make me actually feel queasy and I never fell queasy. Ive had my bottle of Coco edp in the classic bottle for 18 yrs. Ive bought more bottles of this stuff in the range, than any otherbut not for myself! =(. Email me at krnszn@gmail.com. Get a sample and try it on your own skin HKMom. Im kinda scared Ill tire of it quickly. If thats the case, you probably wont like No. I still need to try Cuir de Russie and Sycomore.sigh, so many frags so little time. I just spit hot cocoa! I ended up buying it 4 years ago when I sprayed it in the mall then held my 3 month old baby and after my husband took the baby and said how good she smelled :)). Ill be happy to split this three ways, certainly makes it more economical Ill email you both. When CM first came out all those years ago a SA tried to squirt me once. I just like fragrances for the joy they provide. What more do you need to say? Id guess the Chanels you might like best would be Coromandel (if you are all right with chocolatey patchouli and lots of it), Bois des Iles (still aldehydic, but tamped down by spice and sandalwood), Eau Premiere (so pretty, and although it has an aldehydic lift, they are fat, creamy aldehydes), and maybe Coco. I think it is genetic but possibly not dominanteveryone in my family can do it, but no one in the CEOs family.my daughter is very disappointed to not have any Spock-eyebrow abilities. As for Vanessa Paradiswell, she got Johnny Depp. Selecting perfume in the morning is always a difficult / time consuming task. Funny about Light Blue, too I have a coworker that wears it, and some days she smells really pleasant, all citrusy-clean. It must be genetic though as my toddler can already involuntarily raise just one of hers. lolI embrace my own element of weirdness but sometimes I do get wildly different results from perfume. Sbe doesnt overspray by any means no sillage for miles around, etc. That sweet patchouli/musky drydown is my favorite part. But still, she doesnt read that way. Last medically reviewed on November 28, 2017, A well-functioning sense of smell is something most people take for granted, until its lost. no need to go on a travelling circusi have one right here and my third preteen has joined the ranks with his older sibling of cracking up/be highly embarressed of me!!! Ill have to look for that ad! I love the bottle and I love the commercial! There are some other good leathers out there, too, for less $$. (ya gotta let these SAs know where they stand), guys..i can do the spock eyebrow with the left..the whole three leaf clover tongue thingy and..i can move my ears without anything else on my face!!! You may have narrow nasal passages for several reasons, including genetics, aging, injury, or a medical condition. I guess Chanel tried Nicole Kidman for No. Of course anyone is free to comment. I was browsing at Ulta before a date once and gave myself a hearty spritz.as soon as I got to the car I knew I had made a mistake. I totally dismissed her and the CM with disdain as I was afraid they were going to discontinue my beloved Coco. Side effects printed in the leaflet material may include impaired smell. Hey there Perfumegeek and Karin lets go for it! have they reformulated this? CM on the other hand, was everything I wanted CoCo to be and more. Ive certainly spent plenty on other scents, though! I have no idea what happened. Amirage annoys me now, Im sure theyve reformulated it because I liked a better on her when she had a bottle (about 5years ago ???) Perhaps we can somehow get the army of Coco Mademoiselle wearers to switch to other Jacques Polge creations for the house of Chanel (Sycomore, Bel Respiro and Beige, perhaps?? It wears chypre-like on her, very smooth and peppery, with most of the sweetness relegated to the background. I never got the appeal. Coco Mademoiselle Parfum by Chanel is a Amber Floral fragrance for women. I dont see the similarities between CM and Chance that others mentionedfor me (and on me) theres a huge difference between the bergamot and the screeching lemon in their openings. . I dont find it old-lady-ish at all. (another cool thing for your resume) because this is EXACTLY how I feel about CM. August 2022, Celebrity perfumes Maybe you should have a bottle. Why does that happen? All I get is the sharp topnotes and a bug spray dry down! Im happy to host the split. Angela: Im sure I have a vial of this somewhere, but I dont think Ill be scrambling to find it any time soon. Angela, you crack me up! This procedure can improve breathing, snoring, and other complications. All these years I had thought it overly spicy and resinous for my taste, I never noticed how beautifully the flowers were blooming amidst the woods and spices. ), by the way, and has bottles of No. Nice analogy! There! Another instance of Coco Mademoiselle abuse occurred during a commute to work. 5 parfum that stunned me so with its beauty. I inherited none of the ability at all. So little time, and for a lot of us, so little money! I dont remember ever giving CM a sniff, but I will, just as part of my fragrance education. There is something about it that makes me want to re-visit on a more frequent basis: I think its because my shnooze became overly sensitve to all these mass-produced fruity/gourmand scents that girls wear these days. For some reason, Coco Mademoiselle is a particularly potent fragrance. Because they both have supernatural sillage they really make themselves known to anyone within a 20-foot radius and linger lonnnnng after the wearer has departed. I feel exactly the opposite about these two: I admire Coco but cant wear it; and CM is one of my perfect scents. I hope you get your decant! Up until recently, I thought of it as the generic womens version of Acqua di Gio. Im in the Deep South and it seems everyone under a certain age here wears pink perfumes, if you know what I mean. There's plenty of Chanel out there for all of us. Reminds me of the scent of original Herbal Essences shampoo or fresh, green and androgynous in a specifically 70s way (faintly representative of Patous 1000). The scent is even worse. Sounds like you need to wear them side by side for a day and see what you think. They sell it in Marshalls 1.7oz for $25. But those random whiffslovely. Oh, and calling Luca Mr. I suppose what your friend doesnt know cant hurt her, but it sounds like you need to order a set for yourself! I wear Coco Mademoiselle. I just hate smelling it from a hundred feet away. In the same article, "industry insiders" guessed Coco Mademoiselle . Chanel really does have a range. 5 in EDT and EDP standing neglected on her dressing table (thoughtful but obviously unappreciated gifts). I agree with bring back Catherine! She says sexy and intelligent in a way I find timeless and ageless. In the same article, "industry insiders" guessed Coco Mademoiselle might earn as much as $15 million its first year. It sounds like we see it the same way! I NEVER smell Coco Mlle around here is it really that prevalent elsewhere? It sounds like a terrific scent on you. Great point, and good for you for seeing through the strategies! especially when its not me .lolsix bottles right now already..ALTHOUGHI want to split Coromandel and 28 La Plausa after the New Year. Subscribe to followup comments via email. The nose behind this fragrance is Jacques Polge. CM will probably always remind me of nights out but these days Im wear to 31 Rue Cambon while also wishing for Cuir De Russie and Sycomore. 31 Rue Cambon is at the top of my wish list, but cant imagine ever using up a 200ml bottle or paying $200 for it (which is actually pretty reasonable when you consider the $ per oz cost). It sounds like it smells lovely on you! Whenever I go out, its AngelAngelAngel. And too my detriment, like the more girly scents, so that makes it hard to find a Chanel. I think I surprised her when I asked if it was Coco Mademoiselle, and surprised myself by not only not wanting to hang myself, but actually liking it -on her-. Ill be sticking with original Coco, which is one of my all-time faves, anyway. Think I really just wanted the bottle, and at $60 a pop for the 50ml, I thought it a better deal than the .25 oz perfume for $80. Is the Chance Eau Frache decant still up for grabs? and some real beauties (right there with you on 31 Rue Cambon and Bois des Iles). Normally, I like musk just fine. So my husband approach her husband to say, your wife just passed by and her fragrance was outstanding. Yikes! 5 ads, and Ines de la Fressange and Vanessa Paradis for Coco. Replies to my comments Diviation? Theres not much nicer than finding you really like a scent you already have. Have you tried the masculines? They say the Gardenia isnt cloying (I like that), but doesnt last. on other women. However, in Women's Wear Daily1 before Coco Mademoiselle launched, Chanel's "Vice President of fragrance and internet marketing"2 said Coco Mademoiselle could double Coco's business. Chanel is interestingsuch a bifurcated line. Wish I knew. *scrubs monitor and keyboard clean*, I loathe Coco Mademoiselle on meits very harsh & masculine. Call your doctor if you have difficulty smelling. Since I live in the rural west, I seldom encounter anyone who actually wears perfume, so I dont have to worry about smelling like everyone else. That could be good AND bad! and she put some on in the airport duty free a couple of weeks ago and it jus went vile I said do NOT get that, I made her try Miss Dior Cherie because its similar to Coco Mlle and Id hate for her to have a bottle of Coco Mlle and then try Miss Cherie and like it more. It seems like everything geared towards my age group (Im 22) is so LOUD! As someone for whom lemon is the kiss of death, I am nonetheless happy to smell Chance on my GF, who is 53 (!
