Chanel Chance Eau de Parfum

Advantages: Long lasting
Disadvantages: Expensive

...This fragrance is like no other I have ever come across. It is totally unique. Recently new to the market but an instant classic. I sell perfume for a living in Harvey Nichols and this is a perfume adored by all. I've never once sprayed this on to someone's arm and they not have liked it. It can be worn by all ages. It's a long lasting perfume, the scent lingers with you all day. Recognisable. Classed as an oriental floral fragrance. It contains notes of hyacinth and citron, jasmine, pink pepper, fresh vetiver, orris absolute, amber patchouli and white musk. Very romantic and seductive. This product is available in 50ml, 100ml and now handbag size 3x30ml, as well as a range of bath time products. The Chanel Chance Eau Fraiche fragrance has recently been launched and is based on the original chance but a lot lighter and in my opinion does...

Review of Chanel Chance Eau De Parfum Spray

Wow! I love that Aadehydes smell you're wearing !!

Advantages: This is THE perfume - pure class!
Disadvantages: Expensive but worth it.

...also know that all my daughters have been keen to pinch a squirt from their teenage years onwards. History of the perfume When Coco Chanel commissioned Ernest Beaux to make a new perfume she told him "I want to give women an artificial perfume.Yes, I really do mean artificial, like a dress, something that has been made. I don't want any rose or lily of the valley, I want a perfume that is a composition." She wanted perfume to be 'un parfum de femme, à l'odeur de femme (the scent/smell of a woman)' Consequently this perfume was the first perfume to heavily rely on synthetic floral aldehydes. It is alleged that the perfume got its name when Coco was given a range of different perfumes numbered from 1 to 6 by Beaux to chose as her first perfume she chose number five, number five was also her lucky number Andy...

Review of Christian Dior J'Adore Eau de Parfum Spray

Givenchy Ange Ou Demon Eau de Parfum Spray

Advantages: Very seductive and mysterious fragnance, recommended for the eveing
Disadvantages: May be too strong for morning

...I got this perfumes for my birthday from my boyfriend's parents. They knew that I liked them as I found tester in one magazine some time ago and I was going to buy them myself. However they were quicker. There are few things which I would highly recommend in this product. First of all- fragrance. You have probably seen an advert and you need to admit it's a bit mysterious, seductive and it makes impression. There's no difference with the smell. If I would need to use only one world to describe it- it would be Seductive. This composition is very strong that's why I would rather discourage you of using it in the morning. All the senses are very sensitive in the morning and these perfumes may irritate you or even entourage. I remember when I spray it few times on me in the morning, it almost made me sneezing. It may be hard to believe but...

No5 you're my No 1.

Advantages: Price is rarely discounted
Disadvantages: Price is rarely discounted

...for boots while we?re at it. If you like heavy, musky fragrances, then this one?s probably not for you. It?s light, sophisticated and sexy. A very mood lifting kind of perfume. Men like it too. There?s nothing worse than getting all dressed up for a night out and your fella pulling faces as though you smell like a rancid skunk. This is the only perfume I?ve worn and never tired of. It?s always fresh, always attractive. I won?t tell you to buy it, but I will tell you to try it. It?s beautiful. DIFFERENT TYPES I?VE TRIED. Parfum 7ml- same great smell but never really got away with this one somehow. A 100ml refill bottle of eau de toilette lasts longer for about the same price. Nice little bottle though. Spray Deodorant- nice. It?s a good one to spray all over for a light daytime fragrance. Same great smell. I?d recommend this. Eau De...

Can you think of 5 places to dab it

Advantages: Smells wonderful, suits any occasion and most people, samples easily available
Disadvantages: A little costly

...are instantly recognisable, and the simple black, white and gold used for the packaging of all Chanel No.5 products helps keep it looking and feeling stylish and classic. The Outer packaging is usually primarily White with Black lettering and gold highlights. The Inner packaging may be black or white with the opposite colour used for any writing and again, with gold used as a highlight. ***The Many faces of Chanel No.5*** Chanel as a brand, have a few staples, and Chanel No. 5 is one of these. Modern Perfumes within the range may come and go, but Chanel No. 5 is always there. Because of its stability in the range, Chanel, over the years, have developed a wide range of bath and body items that contain this scent. It?s available as a simple perfume that you can dab or spray on, body cream, body lotion, spray deodorant, bath gel...

Review of Chanel No.5 Eau De Parfum Spray

sophistication in a bottle

Advantages: lovely
Disadvantages: pricey

...my father used to buy my mother this perfume as it was her favourite. i loved the lingering scent that trailed behind her. it can be worn for any occasion. sophistication in a bottle is how i would describe this scent. i was first given a bottle as a gift at xmas when my mother noticed her vast array of chanel no5 products - shower gels, soaps, hair scents, bubble bath and of course eau de parfums were disappering! from then on iv been hooked. whenever i wear it, where ever i go people always ask which gorgeous fragrance i have on. this perfume suits everyone and anyone. it seems to be to everyones liking. it is fresh and exciting. it is also very long lasting. if i put it on in the morning by peoples comments i know i still smell of it in the evening, which also makes it value for money....

A Timeless Classic

Advantages: Still a winner after all these years
Disadvantages: Pricey (very!)

...This opinion is not so much about Chanel No 5 the perfume (although rest assured I will be mentioning it!) but the relatively recently released "Purse Packs". These little packs contain a 15ml purse spray together with two 15ml refills. The spray itself is the perfect size for most handbags, being just 10.5cm (about 4 inches) high and 2cm (0.75 inch) wide. The bottle is glass with a gold top and a gold lid which has the double-C Chanel logo embossed into the top of it. When you replace the top and push down it also has that very satisfying Chanel "click" as it closes - one of my favourite things about Chanel products!! (Yes, I know I'm shallow!) The refills are not as long as the main spray but also have a small gold lid (without the logo). The three bottles are sold in a perspex case which looks smart enough itself to be...

ξ Odour Toilet. You Must be Kidding ξ

Advantages: I can't think of a single one.
Disadvantages: Wear it, taste it - too numerous to mention.

...bump into a mutual friend of ours who told him that I would much prefer a bottle of classy No 5 instead. It would show that he was extravagant and willing to spoil me. How wrong was she (and how come I let her come to the wedding after that)? Chanel No 5 may have been around for years and be classed as a luxury and timeless fragrance, but my nosebuds (copyright - my invented word) absolutely detest it. Imagine my horror then when my expected YSL turned out to be a humungous bottle of the vile stuff. Oh no, my heart sank into my fluffy pink slippers. I obliging sprayed some on and pretended to be grateful. He explained how Sarah had suggested he get me this instead and I secretly wanted to throttle her. Chanel No 5 is to me the essence of old ladies. It wreaks of mutton dressed as lamb, of surburbian Towns Women's Guild members. It is...
