The review

On paper, Chances is a reasonable bet if you want Chance for less.

The Essence Vault sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Chance's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.

At $32 per 100ml it costs 76% less than Chance — the 3rd cheapest of 7 twins we can price.

Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.

Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength The Essence Vault publishes, the price per 100ml, and how firmly the match is claimed. How it really smells on skin is what the votes below are for.

What it's built to smell like

The original opens on pink pepper, lemon and pineapple, turns to jasmine, iris and white musk, and settles into patchouli, vetiver and vanilla. That is the brief Chances is working from.

Top

  • pink pepper
  • lemon
  • pineapple

Heart

  • jasmine
  • iris
  • white musk

Base

  • patchouli
  • vetiver
  • vanilla
Pink pepper and hyacinth over soft patchouli, the lively modern Chanel that broke the mould.

Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.

How it ranks against the other twins

Of the 9 twins of Chanel Chance we can price, Chances is number 3 on price per 100ml.
