Allure eau de parfum Chanel for women

I´m sorry, but it is vomiting!!
Peach and peach!!
Not for me :-(

Both Allure and Mademoiselle are amazing perfumes. And first spray, they do smell the same. The difference is in the dry down.

Allure dry down is floral and slightly sweet, but not Michael Korrs sweet. A balanced sweet.

Mademoiselle dry down is powdery, not old lady powdery, but feminine powdery.

If considering these fragrances, worth a trip to sample each on opposite arms.

A person of ample means could choose both. Mademoiselle being your fall/winter and Allure being you spring/summer.

I stand by Mademoiselle for year round, if you can only pick one. Allure is certainly staying on my wish list, but not sure I'll be able to justify both on my budget.

Me ha sorprendido gratamente este perfume. Lo encuentro cálido, delicado y elegante. La permanencia sobre la piel es muy buena y se integra muy bien. Me transmite calma, racionalidad y también un punto sensual. Pienso es ideal para mujeres de alrededor de los 30 años o más.

I was pleasantly surprised this perfume. I find warm, delicate and elegant. The stay on the skin is very good and integrates well. Gives me calm, rational and sensual point. I think it's ideal for women around 30 years or more.

Light, feminine, not too sweet, not too fresh, simple and elegant. Suitable for the office wear or for a date - that's Chanel Allure.

Lively citrus and velvety rose notes separate the EDP formulation from the EDT version to my nose.

The heart vanilla is thicker and sweeter and Allure EDP does not seem to share that powdery quality with the eau de toilette created by the prominent greenish honeysuckle note present during the life of the EDT on my skin.

I adore them both. EDT for work, EDP for play.

My addiction... I love both versions of Allure. EDP feels softer on my skin. On my skin it's a little less sharp, more powdery and soft and the magnolia (which i just loooove so much) comes out slightly more beautiful in the EDP. Also, for some reason EDP is more close to my skin than EDT. I love both versions,i always have a bottle of both. I agree with those who say this is not an oriental vanilla fragrance. Although there is lovely vanilla there, it's too fresh to be oriental vanilla. There is no other perfume that combines freshness, softness and warmth the way Allure does. LOVE!

beautiful fragrance but did not last long at all, suprised from chanel, it just vaporized on my skin. I took it back and got chloe which is very long lasting, also stella tocca is one of the most beautiful fragrances ever and really lasts to be such a soft powdery scent. To test I usually put fragrance on before bed on the top of my hands or on an index card and label it and in the morning i see which one has the better drydown and which lasts longer with the better drydown. It seems to help me, any other suggestions?

This is by far the best there is. It has a fresh clean sweet warm cozy smell very alluring. Worth ever penny!

I bought this with just one sniff and I regret it. It turns into a very soapy and terrible scent on my skin and unfortunatly, it doesnt leave. The duration is very good, but not the perfume itself.

Santa left a bottle of Allure under the tree for me. I must've been a very good girl :-) What I love about this is that I can enjoy it from the first spray right down to the sublime, soft dry down. You don't have to hold your breath for half an hour, waiting for harsh top notes to disappear like some other heavy hitters. It is just the right combination of notes. Not to citrusy, not too much vanilla. Just a beautiful symohony of fresh, lovely scent. This one's a keeper.

My 19 year old son went shopping yesterday and bought a bottle of this for me and another for his current girlfriend. He's pretty hip but never in a million years would I have expected this kind of sophistication from him. I had never thought to try Allure (or any other scent for that matter, I thought that I had found my forever fragrances, sticking to Sonoma Scent Studio's gorgeous Winter Woods, and Kenzos "Summer" as seasonal perfumes, but it really is fantastic! I'm in love!

If anyone would like to re-home their bottle of this perfume or share a little, please PM me. (Ideally in the EU) I had it some time ago, and I would love to enjoy it again.

There is little to add to the other comments. When it's first applied it reminds me of No5 but changes quickly. I love it best when there is just an elusive hint of fragrance that makes me wonder if I'm even detecting perfume or just imagining it. I really appreciate the faceted nature of it. At times the bergamot reminds me of Earl Grey, at other times the dusty cedar note is more dominant, or sometimes it's more fruity. But it's always unmistakable and fascinating, so much so it troubles my mind.

This perfume really deserves it’s name. It’s definitely alluring, it’s classic and expensive, it’s unmistakably Chanel - even though Allure is much warmer and softer than any other Chanel perfume.

Allure opens with delicate peach and vanilla which blend with orange blossom and jasmine in the gentle heart of this perfume.
Allure wraps around you like a soft warm pashmina shawl. It’s ladylike and sophisticated like silk stockings and high heels. It stays with you all day and the sillage is divine.

This perfume smells like no other perfume – whether you like it or not. You simply can’t go wrong with Allure.

In 3 words: SOPHISTICATED – GENTLE - DELICATE

I HAD THIS A FEW YEARS AGO, AND ITS DIVINE!... LIKE SOFT ELEGANCE MIXED WITH TENDERNESS AND MISTERY! THE SILLAGE IS INCOMPARABLE. ANOTHER GREAT THING ABOUT THIS SCENT IS IT ALMOST STAY THE SAME THE ALL TIME!! IT HARDLY CHANGES A LONG THE DAY, AND THE POWER STAY IS AMAZING... AROUND 8-9 HOURS. ITS SWEET BUT NOT CANDY LIKE AT ALL. GET IT, YOU WONT REGRET IT!

This is coco madamoiselle's older, more sophisticated aunt. She is dripping with diamonds, and always wears red lips - even to the grocery store. She tells you the wildest stories about her love escapades and always leaves her lipstick on the rim of a glass.

Alluring indeed. I love this one! It's like coco madamoiselle, but richer and more seductive.

Allure EDP is very crisp for a Chanel fragrance, and that's an advantage, as it smells wonderful. The bergamot and peach in its top are clean, sheer, and well within its class. Eventually a vanillic cedar and papery jasmine accord comes through, accented by orange blossom and vetiver. True to Chanel fashion, this scent is highly blended, and nothing really vies for a leading role (although to my nose the jasmine has the edge). At once feminine, sheer, serious, and modern, Allure is a terrific oriental for women in their 20s and 30s. It breathes sophistication and class, and its critics be damned.

1996 I received this perfume as a going away gift when I went to Spain. The perfect scent for life changing experiences in a woman's biography. An elegant and timeless whisper of youth.

I find this scent very feminine, calming and comforting. I do not understand the tv commercial - based on that the scent should be loud and aggressively sexy. It is more like a baby powder for adults. It is alluring, but not aggressive.

I've tired many perfumes but this is the one..

I just love smelling it on my skin.

My favorite perfume.. so far :)

Most women say that this is their number 1 :)
I don't see any other review like this on any other fragrance. This can't be a coincidence!

ALLURE forever!

Nice enough, but there is something about Chanel that doesn't go well with my chemistry. The base note gets very overpowering, both on this and on Chance.

Nice, but too loud, I hear the edT is nicer/ creamier, I think I might love that one, but I like, just it's a little abraisive

Allure smells very strange on me and I wish I knew what it was. Its growing on me though; in a way most perfumes don't....hmmm, interesting. Maybe it truly does have "Allure".

i like this perfume..it's fresh on the 1st whiff and then turn in yummy vanilla at the end,.the vanilla is sweet but not too sweet like d&g the one...i really like the base notes,.that's just great on my skin..this scent stay 6-8hours on my skin but i still smell it on my shirt after 24hours..my husband like this scent too..

Let's make one thing clear - Allure EDP is not an oriental vanilla.
It opens oriental and as the time goes by - it becomes more and more woody oriental.
On me, that is.
I cannot detect much fruitiness, even in the very opening but I get a beautiful bouquet of flowers with a hint of spice and a lovely chunk of bark.
Nothing more, nothing less.
It truly is a silage and lasting power winner, it lasts on me for 8-9 hours and the silage is very much noticeable even after 5 hours.
A brilliant fragrance for the fall and winter.
It is very special even though it seems to be quite popular, but personally, when I go to theatre or movies or restaurant, I can smell ladies wearing J'adore or Hypnotic Poison and so far I have not stumbled across a lady wearing Allure. Not that I'm mind this :-)
Very well constructed and very well balanced, it will go great with my gray cashmere coat, silky scarf and high heeled stiletto boots.
Overall 9.5/10.
I would give it 10 if I could detect the slightest aroma of fruit presented in the perfume pyramid.

my grandma has this and to me, this is not an oriental vanilla. i don't smell vanilla in this. idk what it is i smell but i smell something 'mature'. no wonder my grandma has this 'fume lol. it smells quite pleasant on her :)

Oh how i love this gem off a perfume ,
so delighfull to put one . I feel so calm relaxed and sensual wearing it.
a cremy soft ,gental floral whit hint off peach not sticky just gental mixing so well whit a twit off spicy citrus . th vanilla oh so gently swerling around all the other notes and tie it togehter so well.
A truly masterpice to me .
I love wearing this especialy if ineed to stay strong and togehter, This booze my comfidence quite a bit.
I love this stuff.defenetly a keeper in my collection.

I Dont feel that it last as long as the sensuel. But it sticks one for a long time anyway.
love love love

With a name like "Allure," I mistakenly thought this would be a gentle, cuddly sort of scent--all comforting vanilla, subtle florals, and warm musks or ambers that leave behind a soft, intriguing trail.

Instead, the EDP opens with the sort of sweetly synthetic white florals (jasmine and gardenia being the likely culprits) that drive up the nostrils like a cold metal spike. Thankfully, this is softened in the drydown by a touch of pleasantly creamy peach and orange blossom that prevents Allure from resembling one of the screechier Estée Lauders.

This smooth, rounded quality in the later stages is what ultimately distinguishes Allure as a higher-end fragrance, though even the youthful bergamot-patchouli combo of Coco Mademoiselle is more elegant and sophisticated to the nose.

Neither an oriental vanilla nor Chanel-worthy.

I have the allure sensuelle of Chanel and was curious about the allure. This does not smell much different from the sensuelle so i will not buy this one. But i like this one to.

I had the original Chanel Allure EDT some time last year. I just recently purchased this Allure EDP version last week. I tested both together and I can hardly tell them apart. They're both classy and gorgeous. The EDT version is more powdery while this EDP version is more peachy. They both have that classic late 90's vibe to them and I totally dig fragrances capable of sparking up nostalgia. I like both Allure EDT and Allure EDP and if I had to choose between the two, then I'd definitely go with the original Allure EDT version. While I adore the peachy~floral~femininity of Allure EDP, there's just something about that 1996 ALLURE EDT powdery version I can't seem to let go of. It's a total shocker for me because this version is sweeter than the original and I'm a an addict when it comes to sweet smelling perfumes. However, the powdery retro-ness of the original feels so radiant and I adore the smell of it on my skin. Anyways, if you're a fan of the Chanel design house, you'll probably like this. There's always something there to try.

Peach, vanilla, rose and magnolia with a hint of vetiver in the dry down. The peach is quite strong in the opening, but quickly settles and then this remains fairly linear until the end when the woody notes come through. This is feminine and warm, but not spectacular. I actually like the EDT more, it's lighter, without the somewhat messy peach note.

I wonder, what would have Coco said about Allure. She hated flaunting and gutsy people.
It smells expensive, very seductive and kind of heavy. I call it liquid sex :) Smell of the most expensive call girl, but mature one.
I like both, EDP and EDT. EDP is richer or thicker, EDT has the nice fresh citrusy hint. Honey-powdery, fruity and .... JASMIN. Which is the reason I cant wear it :/

So, I sprayed this on today. It did not do anything for me. I love Chanel, I truly do, but this one is just a miss with me (as is Sensuelle - patchouli overkill).

Initially, I just get a sharp smell. After a while, all I smell is peach. I smell like the peach juice in those tetra packs. Between the first spray and the peach smell, I smell nothing. After the peach has faded, it turns sour on my skin.

I find this to be a very safe fragrance, especially for Chanel. It does not really fit their old style which consists of No. 5, 19 and Coco. I am sorry this fragrance does not work on me - the notes all sound lovely. Oh well!

lets start with this , i have Allure sensual and Allure EDT and um not a fan of both ! so to be honest i didn't expect much from the EDP version,used to buy now and regret later so i ordered a 10 ml decant of this beauty.
Allure EDP is the one of few Chanel's scents that do not make me run a mile,its not being what they "expect" from Chanel.

Allure EDP is simply a fairy tale. i remember my 1st impression when i opened my package WOW! then i turned down the vial to make sure its ALLURE EDP ! yes it is indeed . I love how it opens with a bright, citrus-y feel before revealing the softer, creamy vanilla base.it cant be more beautiful. the moment i sniffed it i dreamed about winter , a christmas holiday when its cold , snowing and gray . wearing Chanel coat in beige while wandering at the most vital street in the city with the most handsome man holding my hand !
Allure EDP is all about being a real female , if i were a man i would get in my knees for this fragrance. sexy ,warm, delicious, timeless beauty in a bottle ,the composition of the fragrance seems expertly blended.none of the notes overwhelm, they all work in perfect harmony. the longevity is excellent! Allure manages to be warm, enveloping and smooth. it's a very comforting scent, the kind of scent you'd love someone you hugged to be wearing. :)
i do beleive if i tried this on few years ago i would run a way , iam soon to be 27 years old and i would love to get the largest bottle of this treasure , its my coming winter main hunt

in short ALLURE EDP is a fragrance for the woman that had it all - beauty, brains, social life, career and I agree it seems very ( put together ) being smart, classically beautiful, sophisticated woman wearing this because that's exactly what Allure EDP is !
10 /10 !

EDP - Bergamot, orange and lots of wood I would say. Very "perfumey" It reminds me of musty indian textiles (so must have spices in it that I can not name) and the smell of sharpened pencils - having said that it is not unpleasant and if I owned it I would not mind wearing it occasionally to business meetings but I would not buy it. I feel it lacks anything seductive or romantic. It does have something indian restaurant about it though...

It would be an excellent scent just without the peach, which I genuinely hate in perfumes. Why is it so prominent?!

This was one of my all time favourites up until a little while ago. To me it's more of a summer time fragrance, and more suited to daytime wear. For some reason I started to become tired of it, and sold my 100 ml EDP bottle which was missing just a few mls. on eBay. People always commented on the lovely fragrance, but I just wasn't enjoying it any more. I guess that happens with perfumes from time to time. Perhaps I should have kept it - maybe I would have fallen in love with it again.

I have the hair mist and its just lovely. I spritz this on my hair before I go out and the whole day I'm surrounded by this enchanting fragrance. There are very few fragrances one can deem perfect, but I think Allure is one of them. Its both sweet and spicy, the perfect blend of both worlds in one bottle. I would recommend this to anybody because its one of those strong fragrances that are very hard to dislike. Oh... its also a HUGE compliment getter.

I've always loved this perfume , since my first bottle when I was ...about 30 I think. now I'm on my 40 and still love this classic, sophisticad, "alluring" perfume for women on the way!
I don't find it as a typical oriental perfume, for me it smell more like a chypree but fresh at the same time: I don't know why, maybe for the cedar and bergamot notes. the most you wear it, the most you feel this freshness.
and is not a perfume for special occasion for me, not at all! I find it really wearable, modern, as I said, for a woman "on the way"!
LOVE IT

As said before, I´m so addicted that I bought today the soap and the body lotion too.

Concerning to the perfume, I´m already in my 6th bottle.

For me, together with Paloma Picasso, Allure is the best scent ever.

A Masterpiece!

this classic beauty is the Chanel's best. Just perfect. The perfume to which I come back in the end.

I can´t understand why it smells so strange on my skin... No cytrus, no flowers, no fruity; only vainilla and spices, and a bit synthetic. I´ll try it one more time after a while.
No puedo entender porqué huele tan extraño en mi piel... nada de cítricos, ni flores, ni frutas, solo vainilla y especias, y un toque sintético. Volveré a probarla más adelante.

I tried by a tester and then i had it a sample of this fragrance...it's wonderful, like a second skin, very chic ....i want it! :-)

Español rocks ♥. Despues de tan buenas reseñas me tome tiempo de probarla y cuando lo oli lo primero que pense fue: WOW! Demasiado femenina, demasiado primaveral y demasiado romantica. Pregunte por el precio y: OUCH! demasiado carilla u_u ni modo me aguantare a la idea, la recomiendo mucho para los bolsillos accesibles, hombre regalesela a su mujer creame no falla.

I love Allure. I bought it when i was 17. I remember the lady who sold it to me then, she could not believe that i loved it so much. I couldn't careless if it was for a specific age group. I just love it. This has class and elegance written all over it. it's better to wear it in the evenings. I am 26 now and i still love it.

Wow, I actually have this one. Someone gave this to my mom a few years ago, but I ended up keeping this. I thought it had gone bad by now, but now I realize that perfumes don't go bad easily.

So I sprayed it again today, it does not smell as warm as I seemed to do. I don't know if it is the it or if it is me. However, the smell is pretty much as I remembered.

I think it smells like a young wife, a good young wife. Somehow, it makes me think of my mom when she was in her early 30's.

I have never tried the EDT, but have had the EDP bottle for years as it is something I wear for special occasions. This is one of the best smelling perfumes by Chanel and a leader in the best smelling perfumes of all time in my book. I don't get that it is synthetic..I mean any more than any other perfume out there, as some others have commented. It's actually quite delicious, creamy and classic and to my nose smells like vanilla and orange when you first spray it. It is heavenly. As much as I love this one, my husband never compliments it so not sure what his opinion is. However, I also rarely wear it because it is not an everyday perfume imo. I guess it's up to the person, but I would only wear this at night or for a special occasion. I would also imagine it to be too strong to wear in hot weather. Like others have said, it really is a powerhouse - at least the EDP version.

A SURPISE FOR ME!
I HAVE BOUGHT ALLURE EDT TWICE IN MY LIFE SO FAR AND BOTH TIMES I GAVE IT AWAY.
LAST WEEK I WAS PASSING BY, BY THE CHANEL COUNTER AND A GIRL WAS SPRITZING ALLURE EDP AND A LOVELY SCENT LINGERED IN THE AIR...
I TESTED IT AND I WAS SURPRISED TO FIND OUT THAT IT WASN'T CLOYING OR SHARP ON ME AS THE EDT VERSION WAS.
IT IS SWEETER OF COURSE DUE TO THE EXTRA VANILLA BUT MORE EASYGOING DUE TO THE LACK OF CITRUS OR WHATEVER FRUIT APPEARS IN THE FIRST NOTES OF THE EDT VERSION.
THE EDP SMELLS SOMETHING EXOTIC AND SPICY (FROM AN INDIAN BAZAAR PERHAPS...)
I BELIEVE IT IS A PERFUME THAT WILL STAY IN MY COLLECTION.
WHEN I WEAR IT I FEEL LIKE I AM PLAYING IN "ONE THOUSANDS AND ONE NIGHTS"....

I agree TOTALLY with Turin on this one. This is probably the most synthetic perfume ever made. EVER!

This one's a powerhouse. I love it! Really strong and makes me feel feminine and confident. Great for special occasions and lasts forever on my skin. Perfection.

...the epitomy of Chanel fragrances.Simple and special,classic and modern at the same time!

such a classic fragrance, the longer you have it on, the better it gets.

A soft, feminine, powdery floral that screams class and romance. Not my personal style, but still a timeless classic.

Such a stunning, well composed warm floral fragrance. It is strong on application but absolutely divine and it only gets better (and more alluring!) as it develops on the skin. The floral notes are the most prominent, especially the jasmine and magnolia, and I do get a hint of vanilla and citrus. Very, very well balanced, long lasting and classy. Ideal for evenings whether formal or relaxed. Great with a black dress!

A perfect daytime fresh floral with a soft vanilla drydown. I don't understand why I waited so long to try this one. I have Coco, Coco Mademoiselle, Chanel no. 5 and Eau premiere. But to my surprise this one turned out to be truly special. I do detect a resemblance to CM, but somehow Allure doesn't give me a headache, like when I (over)apply CM. Must be the patchouli. I also detect the cold, metalic aspect many members mention in their comments about Chanel fragrances. In this fragrance it is a good thing, making it fresh and suitable for hot humid weather. I associate this fragrance with elegant gatherings with friends and family and chic office wear, but I'm sure it can be worn at any occasion. You just can't go wrong with this fragrance.

elegant seems the word du jour to describe this juice and i have to agree...but its not the first idea that came to mind.
i thought, "unusual, yet paradoxically old-fashioned"
the mandarin and vanilla are immediate---and before you can think of this is a
good humour creamsicle bar, the addition of buttery magnolia steers this
into white floral territory.
romantic? oh yes, surely.
heavy as well, this will have your head swim if over applied.... not a bad thing at all
anyone under late twenties should wait before smelling this

Oriental Vanilla? No, it's indeed a floral scent. Very sophisticated (I have the EDP) and elegant as everybody said here, Allure is without any doubt a gorgeous creation, not for teens!

elegant, classy for a real lady not for girls.

I agree with Jeca. I prefer Allure edt over the edp which I have. They are almost completely unique olfactory experiences to me. Allure "edt" is fun, bright and full of juicy fruits. Allure "edp" smells a bit like leather,cedar, soap, peaches and dry vanilla with my chemistry, but I dig it a lot. It's a comforting scent and one I reach for when I just want to smell clean and inoffensive. Allure ''edp'' also reminds me of Burberry!

it is an elegant perfum. I got it as a present. And though i don't wear it a lot i like this fragrance. It's not really MY scent, but it has something special!

Chanel's creations are my favorite perfumes in the industry, and Allure EdP is no exception. Where the EdT is fresh, sparkling and refreshing, Allure EdP is creamy, smooth and comforting.

This is a cool weather perfume, stronger and warmer than Allure EdT, but it's certainly not overbearing. Allure is a delicious blend of peaches and vanilla in the first ten minutes of wear, which then dries down to roses, peony and orange wrapped in warm, sweet vanilla. The other flowers are blooming on my wrist in the dry down, too. I can't pick out those individual notes, but rather I simply detect a few other florals mixed in with the rose and orange blossom. It's very feminine and... well, alluring! There is a smoothness to this perfume, a bit of woodiness in the base, that makes this a comforting scent that gets better and better the longer it's been on your skin. It's really quite a lovely creation.

All in all, I think I prefer the EdT to the EdP, but only just; they're both fantastic. I hope to one day own a bottle of each- the EdT for summertime and the EdP for winter wear.

I am not a fan of Chanel and Allure is no exception. Too strong, simply not me. The only Chanel scent that I really like is Coco Mademoiselle EDP - it is simply divine. The rest of the Chanel perfumes smell bad to me, to say the least.

I love this! I have all 3, the parfum, eau de parfum, and eau de toilette. I'm not sure if the compositions are the same for all but all but each one smells distinctively different. Not just stronger, lighter, etc. With the edt, it smells fresher, sparkling, citrusy, with light vanilla in the drydown. The edp is heavier on the peach, woods, and vanilla. The parfum is in a league of its own. Just one drop will keep you in powdery Allure heaven for hours!! My husband absolutely loves this on me and he normally doesn't like perfumes.

Allure is so very charming! At first spritz I loved the peach. About twenty minutes later I thought I was losing interest in the fragrance because it smelled kind of boring, like soap, similar to the drydown of Cristalle, I could smell the gentle florals and the woods. But as time went on, I kept getting whiffs of this incredible vanilla-woodsy scent. I could picture myself wearing a toga, with tropical flowers in my hair, dancing and chanting wildly around a beach bonfire in some ritualistic celebration on some tropical island way out in the middle of the Pacific. Very sensual, warm, and oriental. The scent of the cedar and sweet vanilla combined also remind me of being at a luxurious spa. I love perfumes that have vanilla in them, but are not considered to be "a vanilla perfume." Allure is magical!

This became very popular in Spain since it was published that Princess Leticia of Spain wore it. Apparently it is one of the brides´favourite for their wedding day. In my humble opinion it is more suitable for work or for a lunch with old school friends. Very comforting and sweet and at the same time elegant and discret.

Very nice scent, warm, soft, lovely, feminine...

Best "perfume", high quality, extreme long lasting! I got this a few years ago, but I wouldn't wear it outside my house despite how much I like it, coz' it won fit my age...

someone bought me allure edp for my birthday several years ago...although i used no5 at the time...i liked it so much decided after 22 years to have a change....never looked back ..i love love love it

I bought this when it first came out , it had a very classy seductive smell to it that I just loved.

allure edp is the best fragrance.. i liked it since it came out but i couldn't wear it then... now i'm 31 years old and i can't wait any longer... i hope that chanel never stops making allure!!!

I actually don't like it at first. I just bought it to give it a try. The smell for me is quite okay, since it stay long so im okay with that. But it bothers me when my sister told me that I smell like an old lady that going to mahjong =) haha. But since I already bought it I might as well finish it, right? haha

then, Those times that Im just waiting for my allure to finish, I met my husband. He loves smelling me ever since were dating. and when were not together, He keep hunting my smell.
Thanks to Chanel... It really gives you an expression... a signature.

Want want want!!!

This perfume makes me not care at all that it is so recognisable and that everybody and their aunt wore Allure in the 90s.
This level of perfection just erases such petty concerns.

just smelt it todaY
smells like my grandma !!
old sense like a mix of soup & orange..
not my type !

can't believe i waited this long to buy this perfume...as much as i LOVE all things Chanel..can't wait to get it in the mail!

So warm and cosy. Allure EDP manages to be minimalistic yet rich, deep, and very sophisticated. Its very linear to my nose. The vanilla is the main note that stands out, yet its not overwhelming. It is blended beautifully.

I cant pull out the notes that support this vanilla based perfume. It just has this seamlessness to it. Very streamlined vanilla.

It last a long time, and on me the sillage is moderate. But sillage is always poor on my skin so... try for yourself.

If you want vanilla elegance with simplicity. Allure is one of the greats.

Allure EDP is so beautifully balanced...the florals...the orange...the peach...the vanilla...the hint of spiciness...the warmth...the sensuality...the overall class it exudes. I tested this yesterday, shopped for about an hour, re-sniffed my wrists and "floated" back to the fragrance counter to make a purchase. Today I applied it, and I'm still "sniffing"...not to mention my husband has been finding every excuse to nuzzle into my neck (smile). Yes, it's "oriental", but so soothing, so cozy....it gives a very calm, direct, refined presence, much like that of a modern queen...confident, womanly, and in charge. This fragrance is definitely "alluring", but it is also commanding...once again, balanced. Another absolute Chanel beauty!!!

I rediscovered Allure EDP this weekend when smelling it on another woman sitting in a restaurant next to our desk. So many memories came back at once because I used to love and wear this perfume ten years ago. It was a favorite then and I am wondering about purchasing a new bottle. It is equally suitable for the office even though it contains lots of vanilla - a great advantage for me as a gourmand scent lover. This scent is a timeless and sophisticated classic.

I prefer the EDT version, but I enjoy also EDP!

In fact, I´m addicted to Allure, no matter its version!

Allure is really the best definition of the modern, classy woman.
It´s really a true new classic!

Oriental vanilla? Weird, I would have never thought of that. Though I can smell some slight traces of vanilla in this one, it's certainly not enough to be labeled an oriental vanilla, at least not in my book. The best way I can describe this is that it's very Chanel. There's something about all of their scents which smells awfully similar to my nose, and which makes the composition give off a rather general impression, meaning it is quite hard to pick out individual notes. This is a very grown up scent, ladylike, classy, and maybe just as safe a choice as the legandary No5. Imho it is really nothing outstanding, just as I can't find anything truly appealing about No5. I wouldn't mind smelling these on others (as a matter of fact I do, and a lot) but I will never buy any Chanel for myself. There's a certain coldness in all of them which I don't really like. They all evoke the image of an unapproachable ice queen to me, and this is not how I want to smell or come across at all.

Soft, a little bit sweet. Allure is warm and cosy fragrance. I can feel some peach in it too. A little bit sourness of citruses + mix of subtle florals must be really alluring. Though. I still prefer the sensual version or more mature ones from Chanel range.

Excellent perfume.My husband loves this one on me. Very beautiful, very sophisticated.

This is a comfortable, delightful, softly sweet, vanillic baby-powder scent. I would add it to my collecting anytime! Not intoxicating and evidently without any trace of a gourmand vanilla. It feels like a warm and fluffy blanket around a naked-just-out-of-the-shower body. Smooth, lukewarm, serene and peaceful sensuousness. Perfect for an adolescent, too.

soooo good, a must have, long lasting, very classy and feminine..you can smell all the ingredients both individually and all together in great harmony as well, dry down is fabulous, powdery soft and elegant..it is a little bit heavy and heady at first, you must wait for the smooth dry down..an other negative, it is a very much known scent which you can recognize on too many women around :)scent of a mature woman nad pereferably for the nights out, not an every day scent.

I wish I only wore beautiful haute-couture cream dresses, and Allure. Daily. It's like a dream :)

There is something, not really cold-hearted, but "disembodied" about Allure.

Chanel perfumes in general radiate a living goddess vibe which *will* put some distance between the wearer and simple mortals.

رائع جدا و رائحته فتانة فعلا عطر حب يصلح لان يكون للقاء حميمي بين زوجين
رائحة جميلة غير حادة لكن عبيرها جذاب ومغري للقاء جنسي بين زوجين فعلا يعطيك نشوة آخاذة تجعلك هيمان

allure is a innovative perfume and has a composition who gives an individual smell -that give this perfume a great power. We need a perfume who give us individuality, we need to have an unique perfume.It's a masterpiece.

Após alguns dias de uso, posso dizer que Allure EDP já é um dos meus favoritos.
Depois de algum tempo em sua pele fica incrível, a fragrância é muito sofisticada, especial, macio, quente. Tem que ser Chane ^-^

it is good now to in somer it is a very nice fragrance and i can vear every time somer vinter lovely

soo nice! love it. A perfume that fills the room and surrounds you wherever you go, a smell that makes people follow you ..

Allure edp is so yummy...:)
Very Feminine, luscious, sexy and chic !
It is classy yet modern...Could be worn for office or evening, but only in fall-winter !
I think Allure suites every woman !...
...this brings compliments, it is a very particular and recognizable scent !
Allure .... a Woman's scent !

I had that scent four years ago and I must admit its fabulous:) very long lasting, very chic and classic. absolutely love!!

I much prefer Chanel 5 than this one. It's too heady for me and the vanilla scent stands out too much. Perfect for evening wear cause on me it was quite strong.

This is my first Chanel in many years...I have worn No. 5 and No. 22 in the past, but this is my absolute favorite.

I tried both the EDT and EDP and preferred the the headier and more intricate EDP. It's a gorgeous, womanly fragrance - I can smell roses, jasmine, peaches, a touch of orange and vanilla, spices and woods. I find it fascinating how the fullness and complexity of the scent unfolds over time; it works beautifully with my body chemistry. And yes, it's expensive but it's Chanel...a tiny spritz lasts on my skin all day and into the evening.

This is not a little girl, bubble gum, ingenue kind of scent, or the latest celebrity fragrance...this scent is timeless and exemplifies elegance, femininity, sensuality and romance. I feel beautiful, classy and desirable when I have it on.

I like vanilla so I thought I would give it a try. Definitely smells like Chanel and initially I got the "old lady smell", but it has settled down nicely and I dare say I almost like it. So far Chanel Chance is still my favourite of all the Chanel fragrances as it has a bit more modern feel. Allure is certainly very sophisticated and very mature. Maybe one day...

I have this perfume almost for 10 years,finishing one and baying another,and I have never been bored ,i love love Allure

ooh i used to a own a bottle this delightfull perfume and i liked it more then the famous no5 ( still do)... used to wear it during college but it started to bore my young nose so i began to sprits it royal and 2 times a day... xD haha
now that i see and remember allure i considering to purchase it again!maybe upcoming winter
it has good lasting power and its a good fragance when you don't know what to wear ;-)can't go wrong with this one and i absolutly loove the floral drydown!

Just saw the EDT page and the little movie clip, never thougth of chanel allure being seducive, to me its just nice and distinguish

EDIT: i really want to buy it again!

It's fresh and sexy! Rather everyday fragrance. Love it! - one of the best I've ever sniffed:D

This kinda just smells like a pile of coconuts on me; I do like it; it's very comforting but just wish it had a little more depth...

Geourgeous perfume,intoxicating, long lasting, elegant, sexy,warm,can be worn in extremely hot weather as well as absolutelly freezing one, day or night, there is NO Other like Allure!

Someone here mentioned, if there is a possibility to have only one perfume it would be Allure. I agree.

Allure EDP is a smart perfume, profound and complex, yet at the same time simple, elegant and enjoyable. It is my favorite from oriental vanilla group, balanced nicely with flowers and citrus aroma. No loud vanilla, mild sweetness, appropriate warmth and depth.

The basic difference between Allure EDP and EDT, is that EDT is lighter and less sweet. But they are both great. From the top to base notes, from lasting power to silage, everything about Allure is next to perfect. I think Allure is very well accepted among people and you will probably receive good compliments and attention while wearing it.

If I would have to describe sexy, feminine and classy women, I would say she wears Allure.

On my skin it smells like lipstick...no development, no nothing. I will give it another try after a while.

People like this perfume easily. If you need fragrance to impress others – go and get it.
I personally find Allure a little dull, too much vanilla for my taste.
Not my cup of tea.

I don't know well the EDt version, but edp is truly a vanilla cake for me, and not in a good sense. It's definetely too expensive for that! Vanilla, vanilla, vanilla....very boring - for the price.

Beautiful & sensual fragrance! All WOMAN!!!!! Love...

Spicey and floral. Has that noted Chanel-ness about it. It's not my style of perfume, but it would be nice for those who like spicey yet soft fragrances.

This perfume is very sensual and classy but i don't know if it is age appropriate for me. I am 24. But I can definitely picture my mom wearing it. Though i must say the more I sniff my wrist the more I like it. I cant really pick out the vanilla note which is good because i am not a fan. Get a little peach and spice. Yummy. Definitely for special occasions. One of the chanels i like. May have to try it again.

I tried this scent on while I was shopping with a friend. Well I really like it. It's warm,smoky,sensual and very classy. I think I will add this to my birthday want list since it is rather expensive. But anyways I think that it actually enchances the skins natural scent rather than having you thinking "omg.. she's wearing perfume". Very classy,very sensual and so Chanel.

I find it very warm and smoky. And same time full of honeydew. I had it last autumn-winter, but stopped to use it in spring. With the first sun rays on my skin, the perfume left sour drydown. I gave it away.
I adored it when I got it last autumn, but I couldn't stand it when the spring came...

As the name suggests, Chanel Allure is one of the most intoxicating, sexy perfumes around. The rich scent mingles with my own scent to create something truly alluring. I have always worn this scent and am constantly stopped by women and men to ask what scent I am wearing. I only wear it once in the morning and it lasts all day. Infact, when I come home from work I ends up smelling of Allure. By far the best fragrance Chanel does, besides Chance Chanel (my favourite too.) The scent has sweet and spicy notes that is not too overpowering like some fragrances.It's last a long time especially if it is Eau de Parfum. Great parfum!!

Beautiful smell,i read once that Gisele Bundchen wears it..i could totally match it with her,very pretty girl feeling smell..

I like this one over EdT because it's much softer, creamier and rounder.
It is vanillic in a good way and it's mellow. Allure EdT is poor quality to me. Allure EdP is one of the few Chanel I wear with pleasure. Actually I used to wear it years ago. They gave me a 30ml bottle and I gloriously ended it up! Everywhere people commented on how good, sexy and elegant I smelled! I prefer other scents I own, but this one is better understtod by the crowd rather than my niche or extravagant ones.

This is my favorite perfume, my one and only...its very special for me. I use it everyday with its body lotion and I only apply it once a day and my body hair and clothing smells the whole day through! Its spectacular and I would not change it for anything.

Up to now, this is my all time favorite fragrance. I adore it.

I like this perfume, it's special, but requiers elegance, you can't wear this in jeans or sport equipment. More like a scent you wear at the office if you're ellegant, at a museum, at the opera, at the theatre,at a date with a classy smart man... My opinion: best perfume ever, but unfortunately, not for every ocasion.

I was surprised that this was a Chanel perfume. It was definitely not what I would have expected from their range. It is so deliciously soft and feminine. Whereas the other Chanel fragrances smell so sharp and mature.

On my skin it transforms into a lovely warm vanilla and jasmine which surprisingly exudes sex appeal. I was always one for describing Chanel fragrances as being classy and conservative, never in my life would I have thought that one of their perfumes would be so sensual and sexy.

Allure still does, however, stay true to the Chanel style, remaining classy, elegant and timeless. What I love most about this fragrance is its ability to suit almost every occasion. You could wear it to work, on a date, to a wedding or anywhere your heart desires. You wouldn't even have to re-apply this perfume at the end of the day because the lasting power is so good.

It is fairly obvious and easy to conclude that a woman that wears this has impeccable taste in perfume.

Lovely perfume. I didn’t like it at first, but after my mother received it as a gift, I fell in love with it. An it lasts soooo much on the skin and on hair…however, it is a little expensive for my taste. But I will definitely purchase it when funds will allow.

When I first sprayed it on me,I thought it was too strong and the citrus was more than I could bear.Ten minutes or so the scent was really nice with a soap and rose aroma.The perfume has a strong style for me.I like it because it's very provocative in a classic way,maybe because its covered fruity,sour and flower scent.

i could not bring myself to like this perfume. allure sensuelle is more of my taste. this one is more vanilla and powdery after wards.i personally like a bit loud fragrances.

This is my no1. def. I yse allure since 2000.and I tried so manny perfumes, but In my opinion this is most beautiful perfum ever made. Simply i'm in love with Allure.

I just had to write this it is soooo strange..I use Allure for a few years now, and this perfume shows a lot of character, but today more than usually.
I've sprayed it on to pulse points , on left and right hand, and it smells differently on both hands! On left it is almost fruity, sharper, honestly, I Find it a bit out of its character. On the right it is more what it usually is honey sweet with some dustiness, more creamy..At least it never fails to amaze me..

I tried Allure quite recently, just because I love Allure Sensuelle so much. What a lovley surprise! So soft, like velvet, but also so powerful. After ten minutes when it really starts to bloom you may wish that you had put it on with more care ;). Or maybe not - because the drydown is so amazing, you just want to have more and more of it. This must be one of the most popular fragrances ever made, and I understand why. It is feminine, long lasting and suitable for both day and night use in all seasons. It is a real No 1 and I'm almost afraid that it will make me forget about my other perfumes.

Chanel #5 for evening occasions, but Allure - for every single day. It's inspiring, especially as it opens after half an hour of wearing it.

I like this fragrance for a long time. Very character, elegant and long lasting. The special harmony of citruses, fruits and vanilla. After a tiny fresh overtone, a depth and sweet basis unfolds elegantly. I prefer EDP then the EDT.

This is definitely my number one perfume.
I can never give up Allure. I prefer EDP version as it is softer and more feminine. I have never seen a perfume that changes so much and takes incredible forms everytime. Very complex, perfect composition of flowers, fruits and vanilla. It is hard to say which note is dominant, and that is I think what makes it so unique.

I agree with the three comments made by malegia, imgcas and AmilkA.
I adore this melting pot of pure sophistication and elegance. To me i put this as another no1 perfumes. Warm and like the name says "ALLURING".

There will be a day when I will give away all perfumes and get me the big bottle of Allure.It is so refined, so well-mannered, so feminine that a woman may not need anything else! It creates an illusion of calmness, content, self assurance - with a drop of sadness. A scent for Ellen O`Hara.

One of the most delicious perfumes I've ever smelt. It changes a lot depending on who wears it. On me it's flowers (mainly orange blossom) and soft vanille, in others it's fruity. It also changes depending on the weather.
Just a piece of advice: it's better to apply with measure or to dab it.

others chanel - like chanel... but THIS ONE - the BEST! truly unforgettable scent, worth its name: tempting, alluring, falling in love :)

"impossible to resist and difficult to define"

In my opinion - the perfume nr ONE!

I originally tried this and hated it. I thought I'd give the Allure another spin and liberally spritzed it on last night. Upon warming on my skin, ohhh it was heavenly. Seductive, yet subtle orange and peach with just the correct balence of fresh and warm spices. Classy, sexy and downright lusicous. My husband really liked this one on me as well. Really, I was hoping to hate this, because now I will have to purchase a bottle!

Allure EDT - FOREVER!!! One of the best perfumes I ever had!

I prefer the EDToilette version, this is sweeter, the original Allure is younger and lighter, more radiant and joyful.
