What does Gabrielle Chanel (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

Grapefruit and mandarin orange bring citrus brightness, while blackcurrant adds a light fruity sweetness. Jasmine, orange blossom and Grasse tuberose form the floral core, and sandalwood and musk carry it into a creamy, soft woodiness.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick spring and summer, and daily wear, leisure and the office lead the occasions. It reads mostly feminine. Dior Grand Bal and Chanel Gabrielle Chanel Parfum have a close profile.
