Coco Mademoiselle Intense

EDP2018Olivier Polge

“The original's bolder, later-evening alter ego — all the elegance, none of the restraint.”

Coco Mademoiselle Intense
citrus
vanilla
patchouli

The denser, more concentrated 2018 flanker of Coco Mademoiselle — Olivier Polge's launch, doubling down on the patchouli-rose-vanilla character of the original. Rose at the heart, settling on a Madagascar vanilla-patchouli-tonka drydown. Fall and winter, balanced day-to-night.
