Chanel
Chance Eau Fraîche EDT
“Fresh citrus with elegant bones — the Chance you'd actually recommend.”
The fresh-citrus 2007 entry in Chanel's Chance line — Jacques Polge's launch, the brightest, most daytime-leaning member of the line. Lemon at the top, a jasmine heart, settling on a vetiver-musk drydown. A spring and summer daytime fragrance.
The take
What works
- ●Citron-hyacinth opening is the best in the Chance line
- ●Patchouli-vetiver base adds depth that avoids sweetness
- ●The most versatile of the Chance siblings
Trade-offs
- ●Longevity falls well short of Chanel pricing expectations
- ●Projection demands a reapply after a few hours
