Intense, effeminate, and resinous. It’s more masculine than feminine; it’s not a very delicate perfume. Its use is for winter. The sillage is excellent and the longevity is also good. Recommended.
Charming and exquisite, a classic among orientals. I agree it’s more masculine than feminine. It reminds me a lot of CK Obsession, both in scent, longevity, and trail. It’s for special occasions, nighttime, and with good attire; it’s not for daily wear because it draws attention wherever you stand. It stays in history even if you’re just a witness to its presence once. That’s why I consider it more masculine.
I went to the only Chanel boutique in the country with my girlfriend to buy her Sycomore, but I tested both fragrances. Sycomore was identical on both our skins. Coromandel on her was poetry: balanced and addictive. On my skin, at the start, I had that ‘olive’ note I also get with Egoiste; it’s not unpleasant, but it wasn’t what I expected. It lasted two minutes on the front before moving to the base. After the first hour, the fragrance was a perfectly orchestrated symphony, a delight that makes me drool to this day. On her skin, a note activated due to her pH made it totally feminine; on mine, the dry-down was sublime, unisex, and without feminine notes. It smells like a melting white chocolate bar you can only smell, not taste. A delicious torture. Excellent performance, over 12 hours. I bought Sycomore because they only had 75ml of Coromandel, but this jewel deserves 200ml. My rating is 9.99. I don’t give it a 10 only because it’s for cold climates. A must-buy.
Coromandel is a beast, a masterpiece that leaves you breathless. While it’s hard to find and almost inaccessible, it screams 1920s French elegance. It opens with a dense, sharp scent reminiscent of olives or olive oil, with a chaotic touch evoking French vineyards or Jesus’s olive grove. Then it explodes into a tyrannical floral heart, a dictatorship of rose and patchouli that blends with an oppressive harmony of lily and jasmine, giving it an unreachable depth. It closes with a bewildering base: white chocolate, benzoin, incense, wood, and musk. It’s innovative, one-of-a-kind, and a suffocating breeze of the classic and gourmand. With incredible projection and longevity, it remains revolutionary today because it explodes with white chocolate without falling into cheap praline. For a few seconds, it reminds me of Britney’s Fantasy, and although they’re structurally different, I feel Coromandel is the sophisticated grandmother of that Fantasy, its imposing predecessor. Magnificent fragrance.
A fragrance overflowing with elegance and sensuality. What did you expect from Chanel, a house with true savoir-faire? All their scents, even the new ones, are well-crafted. Coromandel has a sweet spot that gives it a special appeal. I think it’s ideal for cold climates. The longevity and projection are quite good. Best for events where you want to stand out, as it has a distinctive aroma, though it is pricey.
It oozes elegance and sensuality. What did you expect from Chanel? All their fragrances are well-assembled. Coromandel has a touch of sweetness that gives it a special appeal. I think it’s very suitable for cold climates. Longevity and projection are quite good. It’s better for events where you want to turn heads, given its special scent and high price.
A characterful perfume that, despite its resins, doesn’t smell as ‘Arab’ as others; it’s quite French. The patchouli and resins give it an exotic touch, and I detect a delicious white chocolate note. I see it as unisex, perhaps with a slight masculine lean. Longevity and projection work well. It reminds me of high-quality Christmas air fresheners, so it’s ideal for winter. A great Chanel fragrance without a doubt.
One of the most exquisite and enviable perfumes ever created. Although it’s hard to find, it’s the call to elegance of 20th-century France. It opens sour and heavy, with a hint of olives or northern vineyards; then it moves to a tyrannical floral heart with rose and patchouli. The base is an exotic mix of white chocolate, benzoin, incense, and musk. It’s revolutionary and ahead of its time; if it were launched today, it would still be innovative for exploiting white chocolate without abusing praline. For brief moments, it reminds me of Fantasy by Britney Spears, sharing an DNA of chocolate, jasmine, and musk. A magnificent fragrance.
It lives up to the Coromandel screens: a complex work that’s hard to categorize and changes identity. It starts fresh and fleeting with citrus, but soon reveals its definitive mark: an incense and resinous oriental gourmand with an intermittent layer of patchouli and vanilla. It reminds me of Opium Pour Homme and Jaipur by Boucheron, but with more punch. For my tastes, it’s much better when it shows its vanilla and chocolatey side than when it turns powdery and incense-heavy. Scent: 8/10, Trail: 6/10, Longevity: 7/10, Versatility: 4.5/10.
The blend is impressive! A velvety aroma of patchouli and white chocolate that evokes elegance and high breeding. The longevity is long, about 11 hours, and just smelling it is a pleasure. The nearly drunken floral notes intoxicate my senses. Coromandel has enchanted me so much with its notes and the image it projects: it’s within my reach every time I spray it. ~ Platinum Egoiste, my friend, you’ve met your match and her name is Coromandel ~
A sweet and vibrant luxury that smells like pure magic. Patchouli and white chocolate dance with vanilla and balsamic resins over a complex floral and incense base. It’s warm, opulent, and transports you to romantic corners of the mind. A well-crafted, deep, and captivating fragrance; the more I wear it, the more it captivates me. Without a doubt, one of the warmest and most unforgettable orientals I own.
It works well for me. It starts with very short citrus notes before quickly revealing an earthy patchouli that balances the creamy sweetness of white chocolate, vanilla, and benzoin. Dry and woody facets alternate with sweet ones, and you can detect a touch of incense. It’s a woody oriental gourmand, unisex, with brutal performance. Top-tier ingredient quality. Perfect for autumn, winter, and evening. Long-lasting with a heavy sillage.
I like it. Very brief citrus opening, then immediately in comes an earthy patchouli, balanced by the sweet and ambered touch of white chocolate, vanilla, and benzoin. During the development, that earthy-woody-dry facet swaps with a sweeter and creamier one. A slight incense touch is also felt. It’s a woody oriental with a gourmand touch, perfectly unisex, and with very good performance. Excellent ingredient quality. For autumn and winter, for night. Long-lasting longevity. Heavy sillage.
The Chanel gourmand. It’s well-made and feels high-quality, very refined. After a citrus chocolate opening that doesn’t quite work and a fleeting two-minute illusion of a dirty stable, Coromandel settles into a white chocolate paste with resins and a very natural, sharp patchouli—not the refreshing kind from an old water jug. It’s a gourmand without being cloying, sweet yet woody, indulgent and earthy, though a bit too acidic. In between, there are memories of cashmere blankets, perfumed sachets in closets, and a certain decadence that makes me think of Venice. It’s a well-made fragrance that smells expensive. It doesn’t offer anything new; it reminds me of a mix of Gaultier Kokoriko, Shalimar Parfum Initial, Black Orchid, Good Girl, and Dragon’s Kiss. If someone gifts it to me, I’ll be furious.
The Chanel gourmand. It’s well-made and feels high-quality. Very refined. After overcoming a citrusy chocolate opening that doesn’t quite work and a slight two-minute phantom of a dirty stable, Coromandel performs like a white chocolate paste with resins and a very natural patchouli in an acute version, not the refreshing kind that smells like an old pitcher. Gourmand but not cloying, sweet but woody, indulgent and earthy, though a bit too acidic. In between, there are memories of cashmere blankets, closets with perfumed sachets, and a certain decadence that makes me think of Venice. Coromandel is a well-made fragrance, it smells expensive. It also offers nothing new; it reminds me of a mix of Gaultier Kokoriko, Shalimar Parfum Initial, Tom Ford Black Orchid, Carolina Herrera Good Girl, and Cartier Le Baiser du Dragon. I get it as a gift and I get annoyed.
Things about Coromandel: I don’t know if it’s my favorite fragrance, but I’ve probably smelled around 100/120, and what I know for sure is that it’s the best blend of ingredients I’ve ever seen. It’s simply masterful in creating a new accord. It smells high-quality. Although it says it’s for women, it’s completely unisex: what’s 100% feminine about a balsamic with chocolate? Nothing. In the opening, you notice the orange and some flowers; I love that the opening has a surprise bonus—they fade quickly, leaving that exquisitely balanced patchouli, benzoin, and incense-tinged white balsamic. It’s incredible that this balsamic, which should cover the chocolate, is complementing everything. That’s the great mastery. The rest of the notes are anecdotal. It has outrageous longevity for not being heavy and an acceptable sillage (medium by my criteria, though for most Fragrantica users it would be heavy). To sum up, for me Coromandel is a jewel of balsamic perfumery, full of spaces without offending, noticeable without being aggressive, dripping with luxury and class. I don’t recommend it blindly if you’re not used to balsamic scents. Three sprays are more than enough for the whole day. The 75ml bottle costs €175 (standard price) and the 200ml at €320. If you love it and it lasts all day making itself known, it comes out cheaper than most standard designer perfumes. Scent: 8.8, Longevity: 9, Projection: 9, Price: 6.5 (75ml) / 8.5 (200ml).
Coromandel Things: I’m not sure if this will be my favorite after sniffing about 100 fragrances, but it is definitely the best blend of ingredients I’ve encountered. They are masters at creating new chord combinations. It smells high-quality, and although they market it as a women’s scent, it’s 100% unisex. What does a balsamic with chocolate have to do with being 100% feminine? Nothing. In the opening, you get orange and florals; some may not like it, but I love that surprise bonus that fades quickly to reveal the fragrance’s core: a balsamic accord of patchouli and benzoin that exquisitely complements the incense-infused white chocolate. It’s incredible how the balsamic doesn’t overpower the chocolate but accompanies it throughout. That’s true mastery. The rest of the notes are just anecdotes. It has an absurdly long longevity without being heavy, with acceptable sillage and projection (I’d say medium, though Fragrantica claims it’s heavy). It’s a balsamic gem that fills spaces without offending, distilling luxury and class. Don’t buy it blindly if you don’t like balsamics. Three sprays are more than enough for the day. The 75ml bottle at €175 is standard, but the 200ml at €320 offers better value per wear due to longevity. Scent: 8.8, Longevity: 9, Projection: 9, Price: 6.5/8.5.
Chanel couldn’t recreate a gourmand better with that unique signature. It opens slightly citrusy, but the chocolate lurks to be the protagonist from the start. It’s a French white chocolate mixed with a luxury café-style vanilla, very creamy and realistic in the Guerlain vein, with a powerful patchouli base. Chanel doesn’t usually give us such pastel vanillas, which is perhaps why Coromandel seems so original to me (though I sense a certain reminiscence of Shalimar). And then? A delicious chocolatey incense with woody touches that is simply de-li-cio-so. I don’t feel it as very floral, maybe a hint of rose deep in the background, but it’s more focused on being resinous and earthy. Although it’s creamy, it also feels a bit powdery without being talc-like. In my opinion, it doesn’t evolve much, which I appreciate, as it seems perfect from the start. It has very good longevity and a noticeable sillage. Its problem is that I see it as not very versatile. Totally winter for formal moments. All of Chanel’s exclusives seem perfect to me, but I highlight: 1. Coromandel, 2. Sycomore, 3. Misia, 4. Chanel N22. I hope to do justice to this treasure.
This perfume is crazy. When I first smelled it, I thought it was something traditional, well-executed but simple, and not worth my money or attention. Stupid of me. This perfume is one of those works of art that, once you learn to appreciate it, opens up a new world. The opening is citrus and neroli, classic (like Aqda), but then emerges that sweet tone, not cloying at all, of white chocolate blending with earthy patchouli. This phase is magnificent, like a good Chopin piece. It doesn’t do anything weird, but it grabs attention. The longevity is monstrous; it sits close to the skin, but that’s its character. A huge cult classic that I hope I can wear well.
Hard for Coromandel to leave someone indifferent. After a nice citrus opening, on my skin it smells of intense olive, which makes me hate it. No rose, no patchouli, no jasmine. Just olive. This scent lasts forever, and when I’m already more annoyed than a monkey, not sure if by the fragrance or my inability to appreciate it, it surprises me with a dry-down where a slightly sweet white chocolate blends perfectly with the rest of the notes like an orchestra. It has me completely confused.
Hard to imagine Coromandel leaving anyone indifferent. After a nice citrus opening, on my skin it smells of intense olive that makes me hate it. No rose, no patchouli, no jasmine: pure olive. This scent lasts forever, and when it has me more annoyed than a monkey, it surprises me with a dry-down where a slightly sweet white chocolate blends perfectly with the rest like an orchestra. It leaves me completely baffled.
I love it. It smells like incense without being heavy. It brings to mind the aroma of Arab tea houses, that rich scent you notice upon entering. Ideal for a rainy autumn day. It’s a beautiful perfume. I’ll add that it’s different, strange, and very distinct from the norm; that’s what makes it extraordinary for me. That difference means not everyone likes it; when you wear it, you’ll get comments like “What do you smell like? That smells weird!”. It’s not a common perfume.
I’m quite thrown off by this fragrance. I bought it blind after reading reviews and checking the notes, and honestly, it hasn’t captivated me. It smells like salt to me; I don’t detect the chocolate or the flowers. It reminds me of Narciso Rodríguez for Her, which is also unisex—less masculine, but neither sweet nor feminine. I prefer warm, creamy, and soft scents. Not for me.
Curious that the opening reminds me so much of Mugler’s A*men. Is it the patchouli?
I agree with @Lau_Selin, but my overall take is positive. It brings me memories of Narciso Rodríguez. It’s an earthy, slightly dusty rose, beautifully masked by patchouli and incense so it doesn’t dominate. A touch of elegance. Totally unisex. In short: it’s good, but nothing particularly new or groundbreaking to justify it.
