How it moves

It arrives on orange, bergamot and grapefruit — bright, immediate, gone before you have decided about it. The middle belongs to rose, jasmine and litchi. The base is patchouli, vetiver and vanilla. That is the bit on your scarf the next morning.

What wearers say

4.1 out of 5 across 33,100 ratings — well loved, and not quietly.

  • Iconic for its bright orange-and-rose over patchouli; described as elegant, timeless, and confidently feminine without being loud.
  • Consistently strong performance, with reliable longevity and refined projection that reviewers say lasts through a workday.
  • Regarded as a versatile, classy all-occasion signature; the few criticisms cite its ubiquity and premium designer price.

Who made it

Jacques Polge composed it in 2001, for Chanel in France. Chanel's fresher, modern reinterpretation of Coco for a younger woman — a timeless orange-rose-patchouli.
