Allure Homme Eau Fraichissante Pour l'Ete Chanel cologne – a fragrance for men 2002

That was a fantastic perfume with so many different facets!
At times it was sharp and light, at times sweet and intimate but always extremely alluring and classy!
I remember the weather temperature occasionally shifted my nasal experience of this little gem which I believe is the most wonderful male perfume the house with the two “C”s has ever produced.
I had more than a dozen bottles of it at home, all bought in advance of its imminent market disappearance.
It really brought smiles on peoples’ faces when they were close to me, wearing it.
It had good longevity, it was suitable for a business meeting,
formal dinners, at the gym and around the year (much like Fahrenheit is) and actually cost less that any other male perfume of the same quantity!

“Allure sport”, which came later is based on it, a more refined – better “constructed” version of “Allure Homme Eau Fraichissante Pour l`Ete”, but, with a twist 🙁 .
While very close to the original, the magic was gone.
That little something, the imperfection of the original formula, call it as you like.. I don’t know. You’d better ask Monsieur Polge.
