A women who doesn't wear perfume has no future

A women who doesn't wear perfume has no future.

                                                                - Coco Chanel

I am so excited!

You know why?

Well, I have got a new perfume!

It's called Chance by Chanel (Eau Tendre) 

Chance by Chanel 

I love the subtlety of the fruit and floral notes in Eau Tendre. I didn't want a fragrance that would surround me like a cloud, nor did I want to smell like overripe fruit, heady flowers, or candy. Eau Tendre is light and femine--just what I was looking for. I also like that it stays pretty much the same, at least on me, and doesn't morph into something odd or funky after a few hours. I am comfortable wearing this with jeans or wearing it out to dinner. 

I didn't think I would care about the bottle, but this one is gorgeous. It's classic and elegant, and with its pale pink liquid, it looks beautiful sitting on my white vanity-- a lovely bonus.

For those who say that it doesn't last, I find that my nose definitely gets used to it after a few hours, but even when I can no longer detect it, my friends say they still can. They told me several times how good I smell!

Classics

Coco by Chanel (Eau de parfum)

N°5 by Chanel (Eau de parfum)

Those who are devoted to Chanel will still have their classics. But they were always too strong/heavy/powerful for me, which is why I initially bypassed the Chanel counter. I am delighted that Chanel created this one for those of us who prefer something a little softer and lighter. I definittely don't see it as just another copy of all the other fruity-florals out there, most of which are way too obvious and sweet for me.

Price

A bottle (50 ml) of Chance (Eau Tendre) costs between 50$ and 60$

A little pricey, I know, but it is really worth it ^^
