“Clean sport done the Chanel way — elegant even when it's trying not to be.”
The 2004 launch that anchored Chanel's Allure Homme Sport line — Jacques Polge's fresh-citrus-aromatic that later spawned the 2012 Eau Extrême and 2024 Superleggera flankers. Orange-mandarin top, cedar heart, tonka drydown. A summer daytime release.
