Our verdict on Chance Vive: Favourite

This Chance flanker is divisive: fans adore its sparkling, uplifting citrus-musk blend and effortless Chanel elegance, hailing it a versatile signature. Detractors, however, find it fleeting, generic, or plagued by an unfortunate ‘grandma’ or ‘cat pee’ dry down on their skin. Definitely one to try before you buy.

About

Chance Vive bursts open with a bright and effervescent cocktail of blood orange, grapefruit, and other keen citruses, providing an instant shot of invigorating freshness. This lively opening gradually softens into a delicate heart where a clean, ethereal jasmine intertwines with a subtle, plush musk. The journey culminates in a sophisticated, grounding base of earthy vetiver, dry cedar, and a hint of powdery iris, adding a refined depth that lingers with classic Chanel elegance.
