Coriander: A sensual feminine scent signed by a feminine nose
This is exactly the case with the magnificent oriental Coromandel which exalts Coco's love for the baroque with the exquisite scents of an amber patchouli with exquisite luminosity ...
Coromandel, a powerful oriental fragrance to trace the indelible memory of Coco
For Jacques Polge, the creation of the perfumes in the Les Exclusifs de Chanel collection is a real “recreation”. Indeed, this beautiful collection is above all intended to be selective, even elitist, but above all to exude the charm of the most beautiful memories of the beloved founder of the house of Chanel, Gabrielle of course!
The great lady of fashion liked to decorate her apartment on Rue Cambon with magnificent Asian decorations, including the famous Chinese panels called coromandels because, according to her, they exuded "the infinite patience of the craftsman and the flawless hand of the master". Jacques Polge will therefore offer in 2007 a perfume that will take shape with the same sophistication to the great lady passionate about baroque, Coromandel.
Coromandel will therefore offer us the Orient dreamed by Gabrielle Chanel but an Orient less opulent than in many perfumes, an Orient with chic and Chanel sophistication in short ...

Patchouli and its wonders in the fabulous Coromandel fragrance
Coromandel therefore has nothing in common with the animal powers of the usual patchouli perfumes. Much calmer than its competitors, Coromandel is well amber and gourmet and opens like a window on the oriental world bathed in lights and colors without locking us in too animal powers. Besides, how can we imagine that Jacques Polge could compose an oriental like the others for Chanel?
Coromandel opens with woody and nervous notes of olibanum which will wrap in a candied orange that is both dynamic but velvety. Then the beautiful jasmine accustomed to the luxury of Chanel perfumes will marry a spicy and raw black pepper which already announces the strength of the wake to come. Indeed patchouli appears in the sensual and burning depths of benzoin, tonka bean, labdanum and vanilla. The incense will wrap around these amber heat to give the woman or the man of Coromandel the irresistible sensation of being enveloped in an enigmatic wake.
“The heavy facets like drapes disappear behind this light and modern structure and on skin, the patchouli softens, caramelizes, swells and becomes rounded. A successful approach since Coromandel is meeting a real craze among perfume aficionados. »Olfactorum about Coromandel by Chanel.
