Excellent as always. I wasn't immediately blown away, but the dry down was really beautiful. I'll have to give it another try soon

Just got my sample and wow, I love it. I'm not a big fan of rose either, so the powdery violet and iris being the notes I get right off the bat--makes me extremely happy. It just gets better as time goes on. Lovely review.

I love it. It seems so different from the Chanel fragrances I own or have tried. It's odd but I like it all the more for it.

i learn so much,and my awareness is heightened from listening to you lanier...'wear what you like,and not what they say you should like'..........lately i've taken to spraying on a hint of mouchoir de monsieur on a fresh t-shirt when i go to bed at night.....y'know i loved that movie about coco chanel and igor stravinsky.
@laniersmith17989 жыл бұрын
I loved Coco Chanel & Igor Stravinsky but my favorite Chanel movie is "Coco Avant Chanel" with Audrey Tautou. Perfection! Oh and Mary how chic you are to sleep in Mouchoir de Monsieur....isn't it lovely to drift off on a dreamy lavender, vanilla and amber pillow of Guerlain? Thanks so much for stopping by.

A lot of these notes you mention resemble the ones in Coromandel, but this sound nothing like Coromandel. Its an exciting time to be a fan of the Chanel house lets hope they deliver. Thanks for your impressions :)

Hi Lanier, this one sounds like a fragrance firmly rooted in the traditional style of the old classics like Shalimar yet with a modern presence and I like that very much. Looking forward to try it! All the best Carlos

@laniersmith17989 жыл бұрын
It is floral, it is powdery but it seems to work in the same way as Dior Homme works. You know, that fine line between Mother's Chanel clutch and Dad's Louis Vuitton gym bag.

Lanier, there's nothing I like better than a quicky while still in pajamas. Well-done! (Lol) Seriously, you made Chanel Misia sound so wonderful and oh so elegant. Much like a beagle from the Westminster Kennel Club Show, I'm gonna sniff-out a women wearing this scent so I too can do a quickie while wearing my pajamas.

Finally got to mark Faconnable off my buy list this week. So hard to find. And now add another Chanel right back on the list. So many Chanels on the list. So hard to buy this house. The list never seems to get smaller. When RobbieX and Lanier Smith agree on a fragrance its usually worth buying. Guess I will have to get my spring / summer rose kick from Faconnable for awhile.... Probably not all that awful of a thing ... really...

PS Bowling Green is pretty cheap on Ebay right now. RobbieX has it rated higher than Chanel Pour Monsieur and Balmain. This I have to see. Hate buying on ebay but this time I might do it.

Wouldnt hurt my feelings any if you told me where you bought yours. This has been discontinued for awhile and when you buy from Ebay you dont know how these guys stored it for the last few years. 6 months ago you couldnt find this at all and now its magically appearing. As if someone had a secret warehouse of a thousand bottles they forgot they had.
