A woody and floral fragrance inspired by casual Parisian elegance, evoking associations with the morning bustle of a terrace café in Paris. Paris – Paris is a fragrance built around the Damascus rose, a flower with a character that shows many faces. The sparkling freshness of the composition is emphasized by lemon and mandarin, and its spicy notes are highlighted by pink pepper and the woody heart of patchouli.
“With PARIS-PARIS, I imagined a sparkling floral composition inspired by Parisians’ fiery spirit and effortless elegance.” – Olivier PolgeParis – Paris brings to mind a carefree spring morning spent on the terrace of a Parisian cafe. Its rose hue is inspired by the stone facades of Haussmann’s stately buildings, shining in the rays of the morning sun. The spicy, sparkling freshness of the fragrance evokes an exciting adventure in the heart of the capital and the casual Parisian elegance that inspired Gabrielle Chanel. Paris remained the epicentre of Gabrielle Chanel’s world and creation from 1910, when she opened her first store on rue Cambon until she died in 1971. The city, vibrant with life and invariably inspiring, gave the designer a chance to discover herself repeatedly. Paris – Paris is an apotheosis of the lively atmosphere and unique style of this legendary artistic and cultural capital. The smell of paradoxes: rich but fresh, refined but accessible.

The bottle has a rounded shape, so it fits comfortably in hand. A plain cardboard box made of natural materials brings the waves lapping at the beach to mind. The large Les Eaux de Chanel spray-spray bottle allows for generous scenting. One dose of Les Eaux de Chanel fragrance evokes a feeling of freshness so evocative that it takes you on a long journey.
