As someone who has adored Chanel's chance perfumes in all their variations, I was more than excited to give the new eau splendide eau de parfum a whirl. However, my first impression wasn't positive.
However, I think that eau splendide comes into its own once it dries down on the skin. This takes a few minutes, but bear with it and you'll be left with a warm and sunny violet scent to match the liquid's lilac hue. Ironically, this process mimics the brand messaging: Chanel invites you to 'take a chance' on eau splendide.
Those instant top notes are punchy with both the sugary sweet and tart components of the raspberry. As it melds with the oils and warmth of your skin, the aroma transforms with the cedar and florals sprouting to the surface, making for a more complex and distinctive finish. I grew to love the subtle fruity whiffs as the day wore on.
After a few hours, it's unique, too. It might start out a little basic, but it develops a fascinating complexity as it dries. I've tried plenty of Chanel scents over the years, and this is a real departure from the brand. I think it's the first time they've led with fruit scents rather than florals. It doesn't smell like anything else they've made.
