I absolutely love this perfume; it’s now my signature scent. My first olfactory crush was Coco Chanel EDP when I was a kid, and I fell head over heels for this bottle dressed in black. Once I tried it, it surpassed the master and my crush, her sister Coco. The top notes blew my mind; it’s different from Coco but shares the sandalwood that drives me crazy. In Coco Noir, the vanilla note with citrus like grapefruit, bergamot, and lemon feels more present. I’m not a fan of citrus on its own, but with the rose, jasmine, and clove in the heart, they’re tolerable. To cap it off, the base notes are my favorites: patchouli, sandalwood, vanilla, tonka bean, and white musk. Here, they feel elegant and beautiful, present from the start. Among Coco Chanel scents, this is my favorite, followed by Coco, Allure, and Allure Sensuelle, my total crushes. In terms of projection, sillage, and longevity, all the Chanel ones mentioned are amazing. If you’re looking for quality and elegance, Chanel is the guarantee. Love Chanel and my Coco Noir.
I love it; it’s my signature now. My first olfactory crush was on Coco Eau de Parfum when I was a kid, and over the years, I saw this bottle with its black dress and fell in love with the packaging. When I tried it, wow, it surpasses the master and my crush, her sister Coco. The top notes blew my mind: it’s different from Coco but shares the sandalwood that drives me crazy. In Coco Noir, the vanilla with citrus (grapefruit, bergamot, lemon) stands out; I’m not a fan of citrus on its own, but with the rose, jasmine, and clove, they’re not bothersome, and I tolerate them well. To cap it off, the base notes are my favorites: patchouli, sandalwood, vanilla, tonka bean, and white musk. In Coco Noir, they’re elegant and beautiful, heard from start to finish orchestrated by the rest. From the Coco Chanel house, this is my favorite, followed by Coco, Allure, and Allure Sensuelle, my total crushes. Projection, sillage, and longevity: wow, all the Chanel ones mentioned are wonderful in quality and fixation. If you’re looking for quality, exquisite essence, and longevity, Chanel is the guarantee of elegance. Love Chanel and my Coco Noir 💖😘🤞💕
Today I tried this extract of Coco Noir and thought about buying it for Christmas. At 220 euros for 15 ml, that’s almost 15 euros per milliliter—a rip-off. I expected a bomb, and the first spray smelled of aldehydes mixed with something animalistic. After a few minutes, it neutralized, but it didn’t remind me of the perfume water. After 15 minutes, it got closer, though I still don’t like it. Regarding longevity and sillage, it’s the same as the perfume water, which unfortunately isn’t what I’m looking for (and yet it’s still my signature). Not worth it. By the way, the cream is another story: it’s a marvel. I don’t think it’s worth it either. Edit: It’s mind-blowing, more mature than the EDP, lasts 577 times longer, and might be more potent. With 4 ml, it will last forever.
Elegant and sophisticated, the chicest of Coco Noir.
