Perfume for Women - Timeless Elegance, 100 ml 3.4 Fl. Oz

Lots of these reviews are about how this fragrance compares to the real thing (understandably so)... I'm not going to do that because I don't have that kind of knowledge or experience, so I'll just focus on this fragrance itself.It's great.Bought this for my girlfriend and she likes it a lot. I didn't get it because she loves Chanel or anything like that, she just likes smelling nice and I figured I couldn't go wrong with an $8 bottle. If it was awful she could just chuck it. But it's not! It's actually got a really nice scent to it.(Keep in mind I'm a dude who knows little about perfumes):It's light & sweet but also musky, if that makes sense. I don't want to say it's a subtle scent, because that muskiness I mentioned is clearly discernible, but it's not "in your face". It's got a really nice light, sweet fragrance.When you're up close, the fragrance is noticeable but it doesn't throw scent far into the room. Meaning people won't smell you before they see you, but it's noticeable when you're nearby. Definitely not overpowering, which we both like.This fragrance has what she calls "an old lady scent" to it (haha) which, despite what that might imply, is not a bad thing. It's got that "classic" aura to it - it smells "classy". I'm sure those with more perfume knowledge than I can define that a bit better.The scent itself is somewhat complex - the more you focus on picking out individual fragrances, the more you find and the less certain you are what they are. Again, little to no perfume knowledge here, but suffice it to say it's a really nice blend.All in all - great perfume, especially for the money. If you're looking for a nice gift for someone (and they don't care about brand) or just a nice new scent for yourself, this is an excellent choice. I'll be buying it again for sure. Hope this review helps!

Fragrance is such a personal preference and reviews can be so subjective. So they aren't really a helpful buying tool.So my review of "PARIS" CoCo Mademoiselle is intended for wearers ofCHANEL CoCo Mademoiselle.I have been wearing the scent for nearly20 yrs,and while I do own several others. It's CoCo that is my signature. My purchase arrived in 4 days in perfect condition. I immediately noticed a heft to the product and realized this was a 3.4 oz bottle-(I have only ever bought the 70.00/1oz bottle. Good start.The bottle itself exceeded expectations. Really beautiful and a doppelgänger of the original -we are on a roll.I sprayed myself a bit and some into the air. WOW. Instant recognition. At this point I was a happy girlThe negatives: you do get a "whoosh " of alcohol at first but it dissipates pretty quick. And -bummer- it doesn't linger. In fact it disappears altogether. But it does smell so much like the real thing that spraying throughout the day with bottle that stays chilled in the fridge sounds pretty enticing -consider it a body spray instead of perfume and that would be a more accurate description. And for under 8.00 it's just fun. It will not replace the original but it's a great stand in for when funds are low 💋

This is probably one of the best imitations of Coco M I’ve come across.Coco M is a classy, sophisticated, elegant, feminine fragrance with superior longevity and sillage. When it first came out, you could smell it on a lot of people and you just knew what it was. It’s expensive too, so out of reach for many of us who would need to save up for it. I knew I liked it upon first sniff, meaning I didn’t even spray it on myself or a test card to know that I wanted it.I’m glad I waited all this time before considering buying it, and even happier that I came across an affordable dupe that comes so close to the real thing.Paris M has the same sophisticated, feminine, and elegant scent/performance. It smells more expensive than it is. Sillage is good mostly when you first spray it. It lasted a good 3 hours on my skin, with longevity being much better on clothing.Both Coco M and Paris M are sweet, but not overly sweet (in my opinion). Given how strong both are, I don’t see myself using Paris M during the daytime, and certainly not when it's hot. This type of fragrance has the capacity to become cloying with heat, even with a light hand.If I must use it during the summer, it will be for an evening out. Otherwise, I plan to use it both day and night in cooler temperatures.The bottle is cute, but the top is rubbish. It doesn’t fit well so by the time I got the fragrance, the top had come off and there was some leaking.Paris M was a blind-buy and I am very pleased with my purchase.However, I don’t consider either Coco M or Paris M to be safe blind-buys for everyone, especially if you don’t like strong, oriental, or gourmand fragrances with sweet accords. Some people claim they find both perfumes weak, others say they are quite strong. So if possible, test this fragrance on both your skin and clothing, to see if you can tolerate it for a whole day.If you can't smell either one on your skin, remember that most people become anosmic to a fragrance after spraying it, especially if you spray too much. So you can't smell it, but everyone around you is passing out. With perfumes like these, a few spritzes (on your pulse points and top) is all you need.
