Chanel Chance Eau Tendre For Women Review - The Floral-Zesty Blend of Scent
This perfume is one of Chanel's most popular scents ever made, so chances are, if you're interested in trying it—or have already tried it—you probably like floral fragrances; they smell nice and sweet, and are generally quite pleasant to wear.
However, unlike some floral fragrances out there which simply exude sweetness all over, Chanel Chance is more than just a simple flower smell.
There are actually several layers of complex aromas going on here. That being said, the scent doesn't exactly take itself too seriously.
Instead of trying to pretend it's something grander than it really is (like say a classic rose), it embraces the fact that it's a feminine scent meant for wearing around the house; it smells good while cooking dinner with friends or having coffee after a long day at work, but it also works fine for a date night out.
What Does Chanel Chance Eau Tendre For Women Smell Like
Chanel Chance starts off fairly lightly with notes of Blood Orange, Grapefruit, and Citruses; middle notes are Jasmine and White Musk; base notes are Vetiver, Cedar, and iris.
The scent is very zesty—there's definitely no lack of citrus elements to the scent. In fact, the scent almost seems to be like two different fragrances layered on each other.
The top notes give the impression of a juicy grapefruit mixed with a slightly bitter orange. Then once the fragrance moves down below the skin, the scent takes on a sweeter aspect which brings to mind blood oranges along with jasmine flowers.
There's also a hint of white musk throughout the whole fragrance, though it never gets overwhelming or too strong.
At the same time, there isn't anything about this fragrance that's especially girly either; it could easily be worn by anyone regardless of gender. It smells like you might expect a scent to smell from someone who enjoys both baking cookies and taking their dog on walks together.
Projection
Chanel Chance has moderate projection—it lasts for 4 to 6 hours on average. The scent will last longer if you don't wash it off immediately after getting dressed in the morning, or if you choose to layer it with another fragrance before applying it onto your skin.
This way, the fragrance will continue to linger throughout the entire day without fading away; however, this may cause the scent to become stronger towards the end of the day. As far as strength goes, this scent is rather mild.
When To Wear Chanel Chance Eau Tendre For Women
You can wear this scent anytime of the year. Chanel Chance is perfect for casual use during the warm seasons like spring and summer. It's also a great scent for wearing during cooler weather since it's not too heavy or cloying.
