Les Exclusifs Coromandel EDP Review

CHANEL COROMANDEL EDP REVIEW




Coromandel Eau de Parfum is a woody oriental. It is made of frankincense, benzoin, patchouli and amber. Coromandel is said to be inspired by the exquisite Chinese lacquer screens  found in  CoCo Chanel's apartments.

I had a huge trepidation trying Coromandel. I heard it was close to Jessica Simpson Fancy Nights. I did not like Fancy Nights with my chemistry, and put Coromandel exploration on the back burner. I feel everything has been pretty much accurately covered regarding the nuts and bolts making up Coromandel in other blogs, so Im going to take a bird walk to expand this review a bit in a few different directions.

Coromandel felt slightly familiar. I remembered Matriarch's CoCo Blanc also had a white chocolate, milky chai-vanilla wood feel. Chanel 1932 edt also resonated with me with its sweet, woody-vanillic base and its orris note that is once again used in Coromandel. Angel sprung to mind with its chocolaty-patchouli aspects. Coromandel is indeed beautiful, smooth and well done. It strikes me as a very creamy base driven scent. I might get a full bottle. (Sample Review)

Coromandel would be great for:
-Unisex oriental patchouli-woody fragrance for fall/winter
-An upgrade from the designer scent market into an exclusive range that's still highly wearable.

 What do you think of the current EDP of Coromandel?

COCO MADEMOISELLE INTENSE INITIAL IMPRESSIONS!

COCO MADEMOISELLE INTENSE  (INITIAL IMPRESSIONS!)     Notes: Bergamot, Orange             Rose, Jasmine             Patchouli, Vanilla, Labdanum, and Tonka  Sillage: Enveloping cloud. Medium to high.    Inital Spray Impressions: Citric opening not as bright and screechy as Coco Mad. Earthy but medium weight patchouli surfaces (not like angel patch at all) floral Rose is dominant then undercurrent of jasmine. Heavier than the current incarnation of Coco Mad but not as heavy as a vintage. Richer in tone than Coco Mad. Give it about 15 min to harmonize from first spray.There seems more notes going on than the listed copy. Its blending is hallmark Chanel. I dont feel its that close to the first formula coco mad because its brightness and substantial fruity presence is not here in the Intense. This is more Patchouli and mild Vanilla stirs with Rose in my wearing as the do...

Hot News: Caron NYC Boutique Closed

CARON NYC LOCATION CLOSED! Cafleurbon.com released news that that iconic Caron Boutique in NYC was closed. The Caron Boutique in New York City was moved to a small showroom space at One Grand Central Place| 60 E 42 St/54th Floor. Ms. Diane Haska was its gracious steward on all things Caron. Thank you Diane for keeping a bastion of true french perfumery alive in the USA. This whole development is sad for Caronistas around the country. I contacted Caron's Facebook presence and discussed my displeasure at such a decision and the ever increasing difficulty to get their products. I was instructed by those at Caron to contact: "Martina S." at Martina@parisperfumesinc.com or call 212-707-6200 is Ales Group USA HQ (parent company that owns Caron). Press 9 for Caron. It seems a new company is representing the brand. http://parisperfumesinc.com/  However, no flagship store to walk into, no real store presence in the USA.  UPDATE: Lord and Taylor and Bergdorf Goo...
