  I just rediscovered a scent that reminds me of my childhood: bare feet, freedom, jumping on wet earth with green herbs. The opening didn’t seem fabulous to me, very earthy, but within minutes a fresh, freshly harvested patchouli emerges, with jasmine and lots of tuberose. I don’t perceive other notes, but the vibe of freedom makes up for everything. I like it for rainy afternoons and summer nights. Longevity is over 12h with a wide sillage; I recommend no more than two sprays.

  I loved Coromandel from the very first moment. Who can’t love such a perfect creation? Like Chanel’s works, it screams elegance, glamour, and class. I smell all the notes from the start; it’s an aromatic bomb that takes off. Within minutes, sweet citrus, then the richest white chocolate I’ve ever tried, wrapped in herbal and sweet patchouli, opulent benzoin, smoky incense, amber, and musk. In the dry down, roses and white flowers. It’s captivating, hypnotic, bewitching, wonderfully oriental, and brings me memories of Guerlain’s Shalimar, though I prefer Coromandel. If I had to give it a feminine image, it would be Rita Hayworth dancing with sensuality; it’s a caress for the skin full of sex appeal. Coromandel, you are perfection made into perfume.

  If you like Gaultier 2, it has that amber vibe. The Chanel one is a bit sweeter. Very rich!!

  Starts with a sparkling citrus note and evolves into an ideal unisex scent for patchouli fans. In Coromandel, it blends with vanilla, white chocolate, woods, and a hint of incense. It’s intense and creamy, yet not heavy; warm and cozy. I think it’s a very luminous version of patchouli and I love it. Although it’s unisex, it sometimes smells masculine, giving it a sexy vibe on a woman. Compared to Dior’s Patchouli Imperial, it shares the dry-down patchouli, but this one is sweeter without the smoky touch. It feels a bit more intense. The trail is moderate and lasts 7-8 hours on skin, better on clothes. I admit both are elegant, but given the price, I’d hesitate to buy the full bottle. Since I like both, I’ll stick with Coromandel for its bright opening and sweetness. Scent 7/10 Longevity 7.5/10 Sillage 6/10 Value 5/10 Versatility 8/10 Packaging 6.5/10 Would I buy again? I haven’t purchased it yet.

  After a sparkling citrus opening, this develops into a perfect unisex fragrance for patchouli lovers. It blends vanilla, white chocolate, woods, and a hint of incense. It’s intense, creamy, and powerful, yet not heavy; warm and cozy. It’s a luminous interpretation of patchouli that I absolutely adore. Although unisex, it sometimes feels masculine and very sexy on a woman. Compared to Dior’s Patchouli Imperial (similar dry-down due to the patchouli), it’s sweeter, lacks the smoky aspect, and is slightly more intense. Moderate trail and 7-8h longevity on skin, longer on clothes. Both are elegant, but given the price, I’d hesitate to invest in a full bottle. I’m sticking with Coromandel for its brilliant opening and sweet spot. Scent 7/10, Longevity 7.5/10, Sillage 6/10, Value 5/10, Versatility 8/10, Packaging 6.5/10. Would I buy again?

  I’ve been wearing Coromandel for days and I’m impressed by its consistency: it smells the same every day. The opening is bitter, orange peel with earthy patchouli. As it settles, the orange fades and the patchouli mixes with the creaminess and sweetness of white chocolate and resins; that phase is my favorite due to the earth-chocolate contrast. In the dry-down, the chocolate recedes and the earthy, ambered, sweet notes take over. The projection is excellent, lasting days on clothes and up to 24 hours on skin. I guess the scent lingers until you wash it. I’ve loved it a lot, but it feels very distinguished, and I don’t feel comfortable wearing it. I think it’s a unisex scent for formal occasions and cold weather, but thanks to the chocolate, it has a cozy touch that makes it usable daily without being too elegant. Pleasantness: 8/10 Interesting: 9/10 Versatile: 7/10 Original: 8/10

  I’ve been wearing Coromandel for days and I’m impressed by its consistency: it smells the same every day. It starts bitter, orange peel, and earthy patchouli. As it settles, the orange yields to the patchouli mixed with the creaminess and sweetness of the white chocolate and the density of the resins. That earth-chocolate phase is my favorite. At the end, the chocolate drops and the earthy, ambered, sweet notes stand out. The projection is excellent, lasts days on clothes and up to 24 hours on skin. I suppose the scent persists until washed. I loved it, but it feels very distinguished; I think it’s unisex for formal occasions and cold weather, although the white chocolate gives a cozy touch for daily wear without being too elegant. Pleasant: 8/10, Interesting: 9/10, Versatile: 7/10, Original: 8/10.

  Spectacular patchouli, mediocre performance. It leans feminine to me because of that classic sweet powder touch. It feels elegant and refined. If it lasted better, I would have worn it more, but the enthusiasm goes away just like the perfume (4-5 hours and low power). Au revoir. PS: Others say it lasts longer or they smell it better, so try a small size first; the patchouli quality is on another level.

  I usually don’t like white chocolate in perfumes, but here I love it. Coromandel is ambered with a sweet citrus opening, a shy patchouli, a ‘fine’ white chocolate, and smoky incense. It doesn’t feel heavy to me, although I don’t see myself wearing it daily.

  One of my favorite scents. The star is patchouli, earthy but not dark or overwhelming, thanks to the white chocolate. It opens with very vivid, sweet, mature citrus. You can already sense the patchouli in the opening, present in all phases, especially the heart. The opening is a treat. In the heart, patchouli, white chocolate, and resins shine; I really detect the benzoin and amber with an attractive warm, caramelized touch. The dry-down leaves an ambered scent where the patchouli isn’t strong anymore but is noticeable. After extensive use and with a 200ml bottle at 30%, it performs well in projection and longevity. When I bought it, I was confused because I couldn’t smell it after 2-3 hours. I was disappointed and left it for four months, but when I revisited it, I felt the same sensation. Since I had already used up the sample, I started using it frequently. People notice it at 6 hours. It might seem like it doesn’t last, but it does. It’s from Chanel, which makes very French, soft, and elegant perfumes, except for Le Lion. I recommend it for all year round except hot days. For those who like this type of aroma, there are two similar options where patchouli shines clean and luminous: Richwood by Xerjoff, which substitutes chocolate with Mysore imperial sandalwood, but new batches are a disaster in longevity and projection, cost more, and smell like skin in an hour. And Rosendo Mateu’s #7, simpler than Coromandel and Richwood. The patchouli comes with vanilla and oud; of the three, I sense the patchouli most here. The other notes are supporting. The oud is very deep, woody, and the vanilla is more present.

  One of my favorites. The star is an earthy patchouli, neither dark nor loud, thanks to the white chocolate. It opens with sweet, mature citrus; the patchouli is present from the start, especially in the heart. There, it blends with the chocolate and the resins emerge: benzoin and amber with a very attractive warm, caramelized touch. In the dry down, the patchouli fades but leaves an amber trail. It performs well, although it initially disappointed me (2-3 hours) and I left it for months. When I returned, with the grass worn down, I used it a lot. People smell it at 6 hours. Chanel makes soft and elegant perfumes except for Le Lion. Ideal all year round except in heat. If you like it, try Richwood (Mysore sandalwood, but new batches last little and are expensive) or Rosendo Mateu’s #7 (simpler, patchouli with vanilla and oud, the latter more present and woody).

  Ultra-luxury patchouli, sophisticated, and with great longevity. The projection is moderate, but its elegance lies in the fact that it’s not a beast. Keep kids away; this is for men or women with class. Definitive, it’s not a commercial proposal to mass-produce, but it’s not challenging either. A delight that for those who appreciate aromas is a treat. In comparisons with Richwood, they are similar and would be redundant; in terms of taste, in my case, they are tied. But well, this is the one I have, haha.

  Pure luxury patchouli, sophisticated and with brutal longevity. The projection is moderate, but that’s its elegance: it’s not a beast. Kids, stay away; this is for classy people. It’s neither commercial nor challenging, a delight for scent lovers, an absolute treat. Compared to Richwood, they tie in my taste, but this is the one I have, haha.
