Les Exclusifs de CHANEL: Coromandel
Inspired by the Chinese Coromandel screens that Coco Chanel collected and displayed in her Ritz apartment, this modern Oriental updates patchouli, frankincense and amber by removing any hippie associations. Elegant and gorgeous with a plush benzoin drydown, Christopher Sheldrake and Jacques Polge have created a masterpiece.
From Perfumes: The Guide by Luca Turin and Tania Sanchez: Coromandel (****) (four stars out of five) "If there were such a thing as powdered white chocolate, it would smell like Coromandel. Wonderful." Luca Turin.
The lovely Josie at Bergdorf Goodman helped me with this purchase and she included a deluxe sample of Sycomore, the CHANEL Les Exclusifs essay on Vetiver, perhaps the best Vetiver scent ever.
