Which Should You Buy?
This one's a proper beast, a true love-it-or-hate-it classic that divides opinions. Some reckon it's a masterpiece, others get 'old woman' or 'horse s**t', but everyone agrees it's bold and distinctly Chanel. Don't expect subtlety; this is pure, unadulterated vintage glamour.
This one's a proper head-turner, a bold, creamy tuberose that's more human than floral. It's a love-it-or-find-it-a-bit-much situation, definitely not for shrinking violets.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.
Occasions
Its strong, complex leather and smoky accords, coupled with reports of good longevity and sillage, make it far too imposing for casual wear or the office. This fragrance truly shines in formal settings or on a date where its luxurious and sensual character can be appreciated.
Seasons
Built for the cooler edges of the year - autumn and spring pair best.
Occasions
Its potent white floral and leather accords make it too commanding for a typical office environment, though some find it clean enough. It shines brightest on dates and formal evenings due to its bold and alluring character, while its unique freshness means it can work casually during the day.
