What does Coco Noir (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

Bergamot, orange and grapefruit set a sparkling citrus opening. At the heart, rose, jasmine and geranium build a floral core, with patchouli adding an earthy depth. In the base, vanilla, tonka bean and sandalwood sweeten and soften the scent, while frankincense and white musk leave a warm, powdery dry-down.

Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick autumn and winter, though spring is not far behind. It is chosen mostly for evenings and nights out, and it also finds a place at work and in daily wear. Half of voters read it as feminine. Chanel Coco Mademoiselle Eau de Parfum and Chanel Allure Sensuelle Eau de Parfum have a close profile.
