What it says: “The essence of a free and captivating woman. A woody and ambery oriental fragrance with a full-bodied character: sensual, deep and addictive. COCO MADEMOISELLE Eau de Parfum Intense is an oriental, woody and ambery fragrance with an extreme character. The fragrance is structured around an overdose of patchouli, warmed by an ambery accord of Vanilla absolute and Tonka Bean. A heart of rose and jasmine and the contrasting freshness of citrus add their notes to write this powerful score.”
Scent
In the intense version notes of patchouli have been increased, with added Tonka bean and vanilla giving that signature Coco Mademoiselle scent. The fragrance now leans from floral to more oriental with a slight sweetness that is not sugary but pure femininity. As wear time progresses the other notes start to emerge leaning more towards maturity and elegance.
The increased intensity of the perfume leads the fragrance to smell smoother and bolder without any sharpness. It is feminine, sexy, sensual and mature all wrapped up in a pretty bottle.
Longevity
As the name suggests this perfume is certainly more intense meaning this leads to incredible wear time. I can easily go a whole day and will still have compliments on my perfume by the afternoon/evening.
The bolder fragrance is sure to make its presence known as I have had people complimenting my fragrance when I get into cars or stand in a group setting. This is one of the longest wearing perfumes I have tried which is excellent considering the price you will be paying you will want to only have to apply once a day!
Bottle
Whilst being a simple design the bottle is strikingly elegant and like all Chanel perfumes will sit aesthetically on your vanity like decoration. The white and gold accents are sophisticated with subtle detailing in the lid. The shape of the bottle is a traditional rectangle and rather simple when compared to other intricate designer perfumes so it is still inkeeping with the classic Chanel vibe.
The mist is gentle and fine allowing for pleasant application as it distributes the amount of fragrance flawlessly. The experience of owning this product is almost as satisfying as the smell!
