From your scent profile
Chanel Paris - Paris is a unisex fragrance where damask rose and patchouli meet on a fresh, green chypre base.

What does Paris - Paris smell like?
Mandarin orange and lemon bring a bright citrus lift, while pink pepper adds a light touch of spice. The rose forms the floral centre, and the patchouli rounds it out with a soft, green depth. The overall impression is fresh, clean and balanced.
Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays fairly close to the skin. Most voters pick spring and summer, and leisure, daily wear and the office lead the occasions. Many read it as feminine, others as classic. Yves Rocher Comme une Evidence L'Eau and Rochas Eau de Rochas (2015) have a close profile.
