Chanel Chance Eau Tendre Eau de Parfum Review

Fresh, girly, tender,
playful, delicate, youthful, sophisticated, dazzling, elegant, captivating,
inimitable… so many words and I still can’t describe the beauty of the new
masterpiece of Olivier Polge – Chance Eau Tendre Eau de Parfum.

The most
tender Chanel fragrance now comes in an Eau de Parfum version

Finally
the House of Chanel released an Eau de Parfum version of their most tender
fragrance – Chance Eau Tendre, and
if I had to choose only one word to describe this perfume, this would be
“phenomenal”. I have to admit that I’m biased though. I’ve fallen in love with Chance
Eau Tendre ever since I first sprayed it on my wrist. It was love at first
sniff and I’ve dreamed of an Eau de Parfum version ever since. Now that it’s
finally released you can imagine that my expectations were sky high and Olivier
Polge did not disappoint. Oh yes, you can count on French people. They know how
to make perfume ?
…and croissants. ?

Can this be the Chanel N.5 of the youngest generation?

Ever since it was launched, Chance Eau Tendre Eau de
Toilette has conquered the hearts of the younger Chanel admirers. Despite the
poor longevity of the Eau de Toilette version (compared to other Chanel Eau de
Toilettes), it remains one of the most beloved Chanel fragrances.

The new Chance Eau Tendre Eau de Parfum has the same fresh fruity-floral
opening but this time the longevity of this playful fragrance is beyond
impressive. On my skin Chance Eau Tendre Eau de Parfum lasts good 10 hours. I
was quite impressed when I first sprayed the fragrance on my wrist and I could
feel the pleasant scent all day long. I’ve been wearing the perfume for a few
days now, and I can say that a little goes a long way which justifies the high
price tag of the fragrance. Chance Eau Tendre Eau de Parfum is a unique
fragrance. It’s not just one of the many modern fragrances that come and go. The
new Chance is here to stay and make history!

Chance Eau Tendre Eau de Parfum is a statement fragrance. It’s
modern, yet classy and sophisticated; a fragrance that immediately captures the
attention with it’s joyful and soft character that slowly unveils its beautiful
heart of jasmine and rose. It’s a tender and delicate fragrance that would please
the senses of any perfume connoisseur. Chance Eau Tendre Eau de Parfum is not
the typical “safe” fruity-floral nectar that any 20-year-old wears. It’s a
fragrance with a unique character that leaves an impression and makes a statement;
soft but not fragile; tender but not vulnerable; an unforgettable symphony of the
finest flowers combined with the fruity freshness of grapefruit
and quince embellished in a veil of musky notes. That’s exactly what the
modern Chanel fragrance should smell like. Is this going to become the modern
Chanel No.5? Time will show… ?

Chance Eau Tendre Eau de Parfum

The notes

Fresh
citrus opening of grapefruit and quince combined with two of the most sensual
flowers: jasmine and rose; a creamy
base of white musk which brings clean cottony effect to the fragrance. Can you
imagine a more divine combination?  (I’m writing this review and I can’t stop
sniffing my wrist ?)

Chance Eau Tendre Eau de Parfum
has an unexpectedly fresh citrus opening that is quickly balanced by the floral
heart of the fragrance. Immediately after spraying the perfume onto my skin I
can feel the citrus notes and the jasmine. Thirty minutes later, the fragrance
starts to develop and I can feel the presence of rose and white musk. Chance
Eau Tendre edp develops beautifully throughout the day. It’s not too
sweet or too floral or too citrusy. The notes are very well blended and
balanced which makes the fragrance quite unique and hard to describe. It has
more depth than the Eau de Toilette version. The dry down of Chance
Eau Tendre edp is fresh and floral at the same time. The citrusy note is
quite distinctive and the combination of white flowers and rose make the
perfume elegant and captivating. Unfortunately, Chanel have not listed all the notes
of the fragrance and I would not want to make any guesses and mislead you but I’m
pretty sure there are more notes in this fragrance. The most dominant notes
that I feel in this perfume are grapefruit, jasmine and rose.
