Coromandel Eau de Parfum by Chanel
Amber Woody
Jacques Polge
Amber – kitchen spices – sweet warmth. Not my style. The smell is much more bitter on the paper which I actually prefer. My skin eats bitter oranges and citruses, unfortunately. On paper, it stays ambery, punchy and strong.
It is an oriental woody scent for fall and winter, but don’t be scared of the word “oriental” in this case. It is still French perfumery hence it is European oriental rather than truly Middle-eastern. If you are into spicy warm amber, Coromandel is a nice quality blend which is going to take you through the day. Test it on your skin first to see how it performs, and whether the notes come through in the way and intensity you want them or not.
Personally, I would not wear Coromandel but I would not mind smelling it on my husband. With that being said, I would not mind, I would not be head over heels about it. That is that.
