Chance Eau Tendre Chanel for women

LOVE LOVE LOVE Chance eau Tendre! I've never been able to wear a Chanel fragrance, or so I thought! Who knew? This opens with a blast of sparkling if not crisp citrus, pear and apple. The dry down reveals the unmistakable Chanel signature scent... The dry down and the longevity is where it departs from being an overpriced Daisy, IMHO. I've never been able to wear Daisy or any of the Daisy flankers as they just disappear on me. Now I've got the best of both worlds - the fresh idea of Daisy but the lush longevity of Chanel. Frankly, eau Tendre beats Daisy hands down. This one is just delicious. I'm on a roll as I've now discovered I also love the original Chance for completely different reasons. I'm grateful for the reviews on this site that give me courage to try new fragrances. Thanks Fragranticans! Thanks Chanel!!!
PS I think it's the Daisy Eau so Fresh that it's most like.

I'm a guy but i will give the description for such a masterpiece with pleasure.
It open very cooling in a fresh fruit quince and apple.
This improve the quality of chanel ,so much naturel ingredients.
For my nose it's not a citrusy scent at all , like i said apple ,quince with floral background.
Perfect for hot summer days , it's unique, cold and long lasting.
This can be worn by womens of any age .
Crisp and energetic.
Best feminine warm weather scent IMO.
Also rest of the chance line is great , chanel's are great !

This is a rare one - the only light, fresh floral I've ever liked.

I'm actually tempted to say that this is one of those truly perfect perfumes. It's sweet and uplifting, but not too girly or overly citrusy. Well balanced, clear and sheer but noticeable.

This one might not be quite as statement-making as other Chanel fragrances, but it's definitely a wonderful one.

Beautiful scent for a young lady. light, warm, sweet and floral. A clean scent to life the mood !

Chance eau tendre was a subtle surprise. What I thought it was was a lightly woody, chypre fruity floral. It, however, has no character, it is surely a light, inoffensive scent, it does not make a statement, which is very important to me in a perfume. It therefore comes out as a simple, fruity floral. I do like it for that special virtue, but neither does it pay any tribute to the original Chance, nor does it smell anything special, like something that would be used strictly to parties. And, the lasting power is pathetic. It does not last one single minute. If you like this scent, you can try Daisy by Marc Jacobs, Which is more long lasting, has fantastic silage and is much cheaper. If there are any mistakes, I am sorry for them as I wrote this article from my iPad.

The second soft floral I have liked. Smells quite similar to Noa which I am very fond of but without the warm coffe note.

i had this last summer no complaints i would for sure buy it againlovely summer scent very femme

There is something about the name that just wins me over...tender water. I love the impression that that name gives me but the perfume doesn't live up to it IMO. I think it is too sharp and dry to be "tender". I wish the sharpness would fade to a softer scent but I didn't get that.

Beautiful smell..but reminds me too much of Versace (Versace) which I already have, so won't be buying it.

Bleh. Smells like EVERY other mainstream fragrance. If you don't wanna smell just like candy, don't buy it. I was looking for a clean fresh mildly fruity scent and this was nothing but un-unique fruit mess. I feel like I've already smelled it 1000 times before. BORING AF

I will preface this by confessing that I have not worn a fragrance since the 80's. I am now in my 50's, happy and content except for the extra pounds I've gained this year. I am working on taking off those pounds, but in the meantime, I felt like I needed a bit of a psychological lift. Over the past few weeks I have made it my mission to find a fragrance that would do that for me. After a lot of sampling, and not finding any fragrance my husband and I BOTH liked, I was almost convinced I would have to abandon my search. But I am stubborn, and after finally seeking guidance from a knowledgeable SA, I took home four samples, one of which was Chance Eau Tendre. I tried it and really liked it, and much to my surprise, my husband said he liked it too and would actually be able to enjoy this one! (There were others he said he could tolerate, but that wasn't enough for me.) So, I immediately ran right out and bought the 100ml size and I am so happy I did.

I love the subtlety of the fruit and floral notes in Eau Tendre. I did not want a fragrance that would surround me like a cloud, nor did I want to smell like overripe fruit, heady flowers, or candy. Eau Tendre is light and feminine--just what I was looking for. I also like that it stays pretty much the same, at least on me, and doesn't morph into something odd or funky after a few hours. I am comfortable wearing this with jeans or wearing it out to dinner.

I didn't think I'd care about the bottle, but this one is gorgeous. It's classic and elegant, and with its pale pink liquid, it looks beautiful sitting on my white vanity--a lovely bonus.

For those who say that it doesn't last, I find that my nose definitely gets used to it after a few hours, but even when I can no longer detect it, my husband says he still can. He has told me several times how good I smell!

Those who are devoted to Chanel will still have their classics. But they were always too strong/heavy/powerful for me, which is why I initially bypassed the Chanel counter. I am delighted that Chanel created this one for those of us who prefer something a little softer and lighter. I definitely don't see it as just another copy of all the other fruity-florals out there, most of which are way too obvious and sweet for me. (I tried a lot of them over the past few weeks.) I know others disagree with me, and that's okay. Fragrance preferences are highly subjective, and it would be a boring world if we all liked the same things. But I know what I like and what my husband likes, and this is it! Yay!

I just tried this one from a sample I received. At first spray, I thought I liked it a lot. My husband also liked it a lot when first sprayed. After it started drying down, though, it seemed to get sharper and sharper on me. It makes my eyes burn. When I sniff my wrist, my nose burns! No, I'm not allergic--it's just that kind of scent on me--very sharp and chemical-like. I can't say that I get **ANY** notes. Certainly no quince or grapefruit, just a very sharp chemical scent. I've had it on for about 45 minutes, and I'm still waiting for something good to happen, but it still seems very sharp and synthetic. At this point, I definitely wouldn't buy it. I'll try it again, though, from the sample. Sometimes I get a different feeling about perfumes on the second or third try.

Chanel is the house which never dissapointed me. Until chance eau tendre. When it showed up I purchased it unsniffed - because it's Chanel - and this was my mistake. As name says - tender,but in a weak way. I would call this not eau tendre, but chance pop edition-it is pink and not unique - just like pop editons.
P.S. Gave this to my mother-in-law- she likes it a lot because her favourite perfume is MJ Daisy.

The thing I love about Chanel is that it is so in your face, unique and creative. It has that same je ne sais quoi that Guerlain has (if you know what I mean). This fragrance, although fresh and non-offensive, does not have that Chanel pizzazz that all of their other fragrances have (save Eau Fraiche). Unfortunately, along with Mademoiselle, I feel like this is Chanel's attempt to appeal to younger masses in order to keep their house contemporary. Chanel is an acquired taste and they have a mass of devotees (myself included) and I believe that they should stop trying to appeal to the 'next generation' and keep (re)producing classics. If they keep doing this, those who truly appreciate and understand the house will keep wearing it. Just my two cents.

Not bad at all. I kinda like and enjoy this scent, indeed.

If this is your very first perfume or if you are looking for something light and lovely for everyday usage, go for it. (Oh of course only if you can afford it.) By the way, it lasts quite long.

However, would I buy this? Never, ever! I already have tons of fragrances which is MUCH CHEAPER and just like this. Moreover, we already have enough boring fruity florals on the street. This does not deserve CHANEL nor CHANCE.

Just saw the lotion and the twist purse spray in the catalog at Nordstrom that will be able to be ordered as early as Dec 5! Yay, if the lotion is as strong and long-lasting as their other lotions, this EdT will get some much needed help in the longevity department.

Starts nothing interesting or captivating but on the skin, after like half an hour, it becomes a beautiful floral with a character. It manages to stand out while being a total crowd-pleaser. It is my safe-Chanel, a safe daily choice for the Chanel girl..

Blech. Just what the world needs: another fruity floral. Chanel, please don't sell out so easily!

Just heard from a buyer that they are coming out with a lotion in the spring. Before Mother's Day. I was thrilled.

I have to say that it doesnt represent chanel because of its light and inoffensive smell. However i love it so much even though its lasting power is just so so.

Absolutely devotedd to my Chance EAU TENDRE <3

I can wear it every single day for the rest of my lifee !


Too bad that Chanel didn't come out with Shower gel & Body lotion for this perfume.

ok

Delicious & yummy <3

I love it , love it, love it !

Just doesnt last more than 2 hours & and you have to spray a ton :(

I got so bored with it. I wore it all day and night.I dont think its an evening one. It didnt last long on me but it lasted on my clothes. IMO nothing special.

Elixa, if that is how some people recognize a masterpiece than they should maybe put on a display Raid tin. Cause obviously it is a masterpiece. Few years back they used to catch flies with a flapper Looool

I agree with Elixa, its a MASTERPIECE

So far, I've used the sheer moisture mist with the body gel. Absolutely gorgeous! Love it as a summer fragrance. Its fresh without being too floral. Love the grapefruit on top and the jasmine somewhere in the middle. The sheer moisture mist is perfect for a light veil of moisture when I don't really want to wear perfume.

To those whom critisizing Chanel...

Do you use internet?
Do you pay with credit card?
Do you own a car?

If your answers are 'YES', means you are moving forward...with times.
So is Chanel.

Maybe this one doesn't smell like their other fragrances,but this one is a MASTERPIECE - whether you like it or not.

Perfect composition of fresh, creamy flowers, surrounding you and let everybody else know: 'You are here'
...with smile and class.

EDIT: Guys love it!

I think it smells a bit like a very synthetic cleaning-product :(

Tender, yes and much better than the original one for me. I love quince and the very pattern drives me insane! A little tutty-fruity pink but not disturbing, not offensive and not teeny. This is well crafted combination which appears once a year, maybe and almost form a notable brand as the actual one.

About the scent:
Innocent, non.offensive,very nice, clean, sexy?? No not at all. I cannot imagine someone dislike this perfume.suitable for every occasion maybe except for night parties.
I would say a perfume for those who have sensitive nose and are not so in love with perfumes in general and specifically with orientals and strong scenes.(maybe that is why it is so popular in Sweden where Many people don't wear perfumes)

Would I buy it?
No, not at all,because: 1) the smell is very boring and ordinary for my taste, the dry down smells like your body smells after showering with a expensive soap or shower gel, like many others perfumes somehow better blended.

2) Very overpriced.
This is mainly a daily office scent, if you are so in love with this perfume and rich enough to pay that much money for a small 50 ml bottle, that is OK, otherwise you can buy 2,3 bottles of good less boring perfumes at ebay by the same money.
3)It is not even very long lasting like coco chanel, allure sensuelle etc that a small bottle really goes a long way and therefore worth the high price.

update: Though the perfume is quite non-offensive and quiet, it smells really synthetic and linear at times that makes me cough and I have to to wash it off, I really did not expect such low quality from Chanel . sorry.

Best perfume ever!

Very poor lasting power. Not a classical, not something you would remember. Just nice.

I love this scent!

i just adore this perfume

wish it lasted longer than just 2 hours !!

This is a very citrus-y and sweet scent. While it smells pretty and doesn't bother my nose in any way, I can't find anything about this fragrance that makes it special. When spending a lot money I expect some kind of "wow" factor, this just doesn't have it.

Discovered it thanks to a colleague who was passing by. The trail she left behing.. oh... I would have followed her in my sleep.. it was sooo good! It turned me almost into a blind sleep walker (and I'm a woman, a straight one!) :)

So.. i guess that for lighter everyday office fragrance it's Chance eau Tendre I'm after. (Haven't fully made up my mind though, but it is a likely purchaise). It's light, breezy and delicate. Serious and elegant enough to be perfect for office but nice enough to make me happy. It just brings a smile to my face. :) A lovely scent!!!

beautiful. a slightly sharper twin of dior addict shine.

Looking for a delicate fragrance, I tried this one at the Macy's counter. Very delicate and soft! The fruit and florals were just "ok". When the cedar and amber warmed up it was SO much better. Then after a total of thirty minutes it disappeared. Nothing left. Absolutely NOTHING! I've never had a Chanel do that before.

I've only smelled it on magazine strips which isn't the best way to fully smell a fragrance but to me it smells like the scent sweet pea from bath and body works? It might be just me.

This does not smell like a Chanel to me. I bought it because I like it but it is not your quintessential Chanel fragrance. You know when you catch a whiff of somebody and you know they are wearing Chanel even if you do not know which one it is exactly? This is not that kind of perfume.

This a fruity floral yet done well. This does not smell cheap like nor does it smell like it belongs in a body spray bottle. It is sweet, fruity, floral, soft, fresh, slightly powdery, and slightly musky. It does smell a lot like Marc Jacob's Daisy. A girl in the office wears Daisy and sadly most of our officemates (I work in an office where most people are too boring or too straight to know who Marc Jacobs is) cannot tell a difference.

I no longer wear this is in the office because of that reason and only wear it now during the weekends. Bummer because I really enjoy this scent. I would classify this as a day fragrance but you can definitely get away with wearing this at night time.

Lovely, Heavenly, calm, fuzzy and romantic is how I'D describe this scent. Funny how I didnt care too much for this perfume at 1st when I saw it in my moms collection. I sprayed it a cople of times and didnt think much of it until I kept smelling its traces around me...it gives off the most lovely feminine romantic aura.

Both sophisticated and young. The first time I wore it I got asked by everyone what it is I am wearing. Love!

This one is very light/floral/fruity. You could wear it to work or school easily. It is a romantic scent for the younger market. Not typical Chanel, but it is a Chanel because the notes are very well balanced together. The dry-down is smooth and warm and I can still smell it after 6 hours... (again Chanel-like). In a way it reminds me of D&G light blue. Lovely

Really lovely fruity floral scent. It's a fruity floral scent for grown ups! Very grapefruit and iris, with an amber & cedar dry down. the citrus notes make it fruity, but not too sweet. the iris and amber give it a beautiful powdery touch. it's youthful and mature all at once.

it doesn't smell like other Chanel fragrances. for those of us, who don't really care for Chanel fragrances..this one is a dream come true.

I had no intention of purchasing this fragrance, I am more of a Coco Mademoiselle kind of girl, the Chances don't really appeal to me. I got Eau Fraiche as a gift and can't remember the last time I used it. The SA talked me into trying Eau Tendre and... mmmm its actually a really beautiful composition. I'm so sad that I discovered this so late as its the ideal summer scent... I would've had so much fun spritzing this on during June and July. But thanks to global warming the weather is still nice and warm and I'll be able to wear it for a few weeks at least before putting it away for next summer. I really recommend everyone go and give this a sniff because its not your typical floral fruity. Its so gorgeous and I think it would make a wonderful addition to any woman's wardrobe who was not too fond of the two previous Chances. My wrist is still glued to my nose 4 hours later.

It is a floral fragrance, female and refreshening. Being a lightweight perfume is better to use in hot days.

Overpriced floral-citrus fabric softener to be used on the bedsheets of Hampton housewives.

Slightly offensive.

omg this is sucha heavenly scent
beautiful
delish.....yummm <3
warm & inviting
Only one negative: Doesn't last very long : probably 2 hours max :(

Wish it lasted long !

My little sister bought this scent, and at first I scoffed at her. I am instantly wary of anything with amber, which is all I smelled on the little card that she sprayed. Well, amber and laundry detergent.

Then one day I saw it on our bathroom counter and, being a perfume junkie, thought, "What the hell, I may as well try it." On my skin it was the most luscious, sensual perfume I have ever worn! Even though I was just sitting around the house alone, I instantly had the urge to put on something sexy, apply lip gloss, toy with my hair, etc. God help my boyfriend if I ever have this on in his presence; this stuff puts me in a very... um, romantic mood.

Sadly, now my sister and I are fighting over the same fragrance, and since she found it first, I am being cast out of perfume Eden. I am on the hunt for anything as hot as this, so please drop me a line if you have any suggestions!

I loved this scent immediately. It's so light, soft, tender and i think it's perfect for spring-summer seasons, though would not be bad for others as well. Initially i also found the smell similar to Marc Jacobs Daisy fragrance but still they are different. I like them both and they'll be among my favorite perfumes.

I've tested this more than twice in a shop but still I have no idea what it smells like! So it didn't really make an impression. I wasn't bad at all... but I probably wouldn't even recognize it on the street if I smelled it on someone.

I guess it's in a way a good thing I didn't fall in love with it as it seems to be almost too popular these day. (I prefer not to smell like everyone else.)

But like said it also wasn't bad and I don't mind smelling it on other people. Not in any way an offensive pick.

Definitely a different one from Chanel!

Lovely scent.
After indulging on other Chanel scents, I find this very light and sheer. Almost like a day in a field of flowers, but not too loud or serious. It is a fresh floral scent for a girly-girl like me. I had Chance EDP before, but this version is lighter and different. Just what I need this summer.

This smells like detergent. And not a nice one at that. It starts off with some promise - like you're being swamped with very sweet, very pink flower petals. Then it dries down to a headachy detergent-like musk. Lasts for about 5 hours on my skin (fairly dry), with an ok sillage. Make sure you try this on your skin - the initial hit of flowers are nice (I didn't get any citrus at all), but the dry-down is nose-scrunchingly bad. Better luck next time Jacques Polge.

A charming summer scent...when the flowers are blooming OUT OF CONTROL!

OMG! today i try this one on my skin .. LOVE IT!!!!!!!!

I love it!! The sweet, juicy pear/peach scent (probably the quince) induces hunger pangs =D

Wonderful fragrance is very unique and gives comfort
Fragrant and wonderful version of a wonderful and distinct

Love love love this perfume. So fresh and sweet with a lot of grapefruit. And it smells sooooooo much like Luscious Pink by Mariah Carey. I have the Mariah one but I want this too :)

Love, love, love this one! On me it smells like Jo Malone Nectarine Blossom, only smoother, better, softer, sexier. If anyone has it and would like to swap with me, I'd be happy to consider giving 2 bottles of anything I've got on my swap list for 1 Chanel Chance Eau Tendre.
Please send me a message if interested!

Sprayed today in Shop
First sniff... GRAPEFRUIT OVERDOSE!!!
Whoa!
I wouldn't say its a recognisable from 'House of Chanel' perfume.. However..
I sprayed this on tester paper stick, not skin.
30 minutes later.. Very much calmed down, now starting to notice the floral
2 hours later ...very very powdery, Hyacinth all over, sharpness almost gone

I own Madamoiselle, Chanel, its very similar.

Sorry, Its not on the list of my "poke a stranger omg what are you wearing" list, (TRESOR, GIORGIO Bev Hills yellow stripe, Dior EAU SAUVAGE, Always does that to me) Correction, I lie. Dior Eau Sauvage always makes me ask him "are you single?" As my clothes drop to the floor. lolol

Absolutely amazing, my new summer guilty pleasure! I love the original Chance in winter and it is such a classic, but this one could be a summer classic. Beautiful! And i suggest get the body cream as well, or if not, at least the glitter gel.

It is similar to Miracle but the grapefruit note reminds me more of Cheap & Chic I Love Love by Moschino.

I love Chanel with all my heart. But my GOD what a snore. So generic.

Lovely, well balanced, optimistic!!! Pitifully, not long-lasting, at least on my skin

i got so much compliment while first time wearing this perfume. this's the perfect sense for winter, sexy, femenine.

If you like sweet and delicate smelling liquid detergent, then this perfume is for you. To be honest, it was nothing special for me; the flowery accord was quite nice although not exciting, and the dry-down was disappointing, I just got a faint smell of sweet dried flowers mixed with hay. I have an air-freshener that smells very similiar!! In my opinion Chance Eau Tendre is not worth the money. I agree with some of the comments that it is "watery" and fairly boring, not really "chanel like". I loved the original "Chance" by Chanel! Now that really wowed the crowds! But Chance Eau Tendre is too weak and too fragile a fragrance to really make its mark as a perfume; it remains bland, never really maturing (on my skin at least) into anything grandiose.

What happened to my review? Why was it cut to only several lines?

Here below is the original one I posted.

This is absolute feminine beauty and romantic elegance in the extreme. No harsh edges, completely clean, aristocratically haughty, and without question very distinctly Chanel. Lancome’s Miracle goes sour and acrid on my skin; not this one, no such bad manners here. Marc Jacobs Daisy wilts in dry down to an overly sweet, sugary, candied teenage mess on my skin; not this one, no such loss of backbone here. Eau Tendre remains fresh, feminine, womanly, and exquisitely tender, true to its name from opening initial spray to full drydown which it reaches in about 4 hours on me. No question here that non-indolic jasmine is used since I detect no rancid indolic fecality in the core of this scent. Good. Sometimes synthetic is better. I prefer it that way in this creation, which is the epitome of tender feminine elegance in a bottle. The quince and grapefruit here open this creation with a juicy freshness followed through with a gorgeously clean jasmine and cool hyacinth. Earthy iris gives an elegant complexity anchored by a subtle musk layered perfectly with more clean freshness in a light woody cedar, and a bit of tender amber warmth. I close my eyes and inhale a delicate whispering subtle breeze of fresh floral loveliness. I could bury my nose in my wrist and leave it there forever with this one. If heavenly angels, nymphs, and apsaras had a scent, it would be this one. I will carry this bottle around and reapply as needed. I heartily agree with Giselle Viz in that this concoction is worth every single penny.

It's feminine, light, airy, and fresh...but nothing special. Don't get me wrong--I like it a lot. But for the price, I don't think it's anything amazing. It's different from the other Chanel fragrances. It's good summertime scent for young women in their teens.

This is absolute feminine beauty and romantic elegance in the extreme. No harsh edges, completely clean, aristocratically haughty, and without question very distinctly Chanel. Lancome

I tested this at Macy's. Honestly, it's okay. It doesn't smell like a Chanel (even less than the original Chance, which of course is less Chanel-like than Coco Mademoiselle, which is less Chanel than No.5, 19, and Coco, etc.) In other words, it's quite a ways down the Chanel food chain. However, that being said, it's pleasant enough. Not very unique or memorable, but it left a pleasant enough warm-ish slightly fruity slightly floral drydown on my wrist.

Huele muy parecido al Daisy, y casi no fija en mi piel

It's sooooo perfect for the summer! I't a BEAUTIFUL fresh floral with sweet citrus notes. The sillage is AMAZING! It will not last too long on your skin because, the notes are VERY DELICATE. It is supposed to work that way. When YOU don't smell it on yourself anymore,( people around you DO smell your sillage though) dont worry, that's just fine. If you keep the bottle handy, (perhaps in your purse) all you have to do is re-apply. No problem! That's what your supposed to do with perfume anyways, right? When the perfume reaches it's drydown period and, you feel like the scent fades away, go ahead, remind your nose and brain of the beautiful scent by spraying it on again. It's worth every penny! I promise!

Very pretty, airy, light, free, a little sweet, refreshing... I like it a lot BUT the magic doesn't last. It fades away quickly. Reminds me a lot of Miracle by Lancome, although Miracle has pepper and is so much stronger and nice as well.

It reminds me of another perfume, I'm not sure which one. I like this perfume even though it was very expensive. It's a very summery fragrance and I were it on hot days :)

Generally,i like this version of chance by chanel!It is clean,soft,gentle and very pleasant to wear especially during the summer period,but i wouldn't choose it to become my signature perfume because it is very similar to daisy by Marc Jacobs which makes it somehow lose its uniqueness.Actually,i prefer the original chance!

Fresh and floral, very similar to daisy, but I like daisy better because this one is fresher and more sheer. Without the powdery notes in daisy, it seems to lack some personality.

I was talked into buying this today at 1:00PM. You can not even smell it now at 8:18PM...I'm glad she gave me a sample so I didn't open the plastic packaging. My skin must absorb it and eat it up!

This was a big surprise. I am not into citrusy notes and I definitely don't like hyacinth. But I really liked this composition on a card. Unfortunately it didn't work on my skin. I think this is a woody floral, not a fruity floral.

Quite fresh to start off with. Very similar to Daisy (Marc Jacobs) as other reviewers have noticed but Daisy is a bit softer and prettier. It is also similar to Harajuku Lovers Music Wicked Style (the latter being almost the same as Daisy).

I think I like the original Chance EDP better.

This smells so great on someone I know that I am envious, it smells banal on me and really not attractive.. I like eau fraiche better but it also has poor lasting power on my skin. I have no chance with all the chance fragrances. I guess I will have to enjoy them on others for now. Sigh

i love it! very light, tender, delicate))))))

I enjoy this wonderful, light somewhat fruity fragrance. I agree with some comments, it is a twin almost to Lancome's Miracle, as I've sampled that and now can smell the similarities. Still a beautiful scent......

too much pepper for me and totally Lancome Miracle.

Huele a pura ensalada de fruta!! pero eso no es malo :P perfecto para verano, como ya lei por ahi se parece a Daisy pero este dura masy es mas rico! =D

Very summer. Love it :)

Well I have changed my mind about this perfume:)
unexpectedly I got this as a gift from my husband...
I wasn't a big fan of this when I tested this few weeks ago, But after using it for few times I was totally attracted to it...It's a nice refreshing fruity floral fragrance....And I agree with Lizaan, It makes me happy all the time and It's a not heavy at all... Love it... :) Good selection for Spring/Summer..

I bought this for my graduation yesterday, I wanted a perfume that would remind me of that day. It smells so lovely, it's a beautiful fruity floral. I felt wonderful when I wore this perfume, so pretty and summery. It just made me happy, and it was a happy day so hopefully this perfume will make me smile again. The only bad this is the lasting power, that's something Chanel can improve I think.

Smells exactly like Marc Jacobs Daisy and Daisy is much cheaper.

i was excited to try this but let down slightly. i kept smelling my wrist and thinking "this smells so familiar, what is it?!". well on me it smells very similar to marc jacobs daisy, but not as good. while daisy smells sweeter/florally-er (not a word, lol, i know!) this one smells more bananaish. sorry, i'm not good at finding words to correctly describe scents. overall, OK perfume, but it did not excite me.

So soft, and yet saturated. Almost intoxicating, it's like a woman every men wants to get married with.

If Eau Fraiche is the woody interpretation of Chance, then Eau Tendre is the floral interpretation. Both of these Chance sisters manage to contain different element without being confusing. In Eau Tendre's case, it's the sweetness and floral-ness with a bit of independence. IMO, the Chance sisters both represent modern woman who has multiple roles and responsibilities. Eau Tendre is more womany, where as Eau Fraiche is a bit unisex.

It's really one of a kind.

=================================================

If you sniff too much the first time, though, it could smell like apple. Then you have to wait until it evaporates a little and then try it again.

=================================================

I have to say that this scent reminds me a lot like Miracle by Lancome.( One of my favorites a few years ago) This one is much lighter and fresher, it's a shame it doesn't last.

Quite a pleasant perfume... but I'm not in love with this...I only get an apple and passion fruit mix scent out of this..can categorize as a spring perfume since u get the feeling of blossoming flowers around you when you wear it...:)

I love it out of all the chances, this one is my most favorite it compliments my chemistry very well.

Liked it, but the original will..still be the original one ;)

pls keep it forever. I'm not a fan of Chanel perfumes. Until this moment I really disliked them, well, and still don't like them just because they don't fit me. I respect the Chanel perfumes, just not my cup of tea, and my evergreen is Light Blue, but this perfume is pretty good. It is perfect. Amazing. Produce it for ever

I bought the Eau fraiche a few weeks ago and I love the masculine scents in it, really fresch and young! I smelled the eau tendre in the store then and I didn't like it all, I thought it smellt really chemical and not at all flattering but today I sniffed it again and I LOVED it. The citrus and the florals make it a really playful and girly scent that wouldnt offend anyone. Perfect for summer!

this perfume is a summer day with the sunshine streaming through the trees, fresh flowers and happpiness. Overally a soft fruity floral. BUT the best part is the dry down. Unlike other perfumes that smell similar to chance eau tendre, like MJ daisy and Mariah carey luscious pink and also DKNY fresh blossom, THIS perfume dries down true and is from start to finish - true and confident. The other perfumes mentioned above dry down and seem to dissappear to nothingness while the chanel remains this gorgeous innocent white musk and floral deliciousness. A lot of perfume houses that have come out with a scent change their style slightly to match the times, like when Balenciaga paris debuted, a lot of people were "surprised" that it was a chypre floral instead of being quirky and strong. Overall, a fresh new Chanel scent that is a permanent fixture in my fragrance wardrobe. Thank you Jacques Polge!

I fell in love with this Chance perfume. It is really gentle and fresh ^^

I like it, it's fresh and not too floral for me! But I prefer eau fraîche to eau tendre.

Like this one. It's not subtle but I wouldnt't say it's overpowering either. Chanel Chance Eau Tendre is a scent that is intoxicating and fresh to me. I am not a big fan of citrus scents but the combo of other notes along with the citrus works. Will repurchase when I'm done with my current bottle.

I agree with Happyme2009: Chance Eau Tendre is a happy fragrance. I like and wear the original Chance, but its flanker Eau Fraiche left me unimpressed, so I didn’t even try Eau Tendre for a long time. I was pleasantly surprised, however. Go ahead and call me a Chanel girl because I have to admit that, having searched for a new spring fragrance among niche and non-niche options, this was my FB choice for a light fragrance this month.

It is not that it is groundbreaking. It is not that it is even original. All the comparisons with Daisy are spot-on, although I find that Daisy and Eau Tendre tend to go their different olfactory paths after the initial stage. Daisy stays colder and somehow “prim” on my skin. Eau Tendre is warmer, much more vibrant, and ends up with a slight powdery feel that I like.

Eau Tendre’s opening is a loud burst of citrus (lots of it!) and fruit. I like quinces, which I sometimes buy at the local Farmer’s market, but while the fruity opening in Eau Tendre is tart, it didn’t exactly smell like quinces to me. In fact, it smelled more of a generic apple. To my slight disappointment, the magnolia here is not the tropical, creamy flower I have come to love. In general, the fruit seems to dominate the floral notes for me.

Although this is an EDT, Eau Tendre lasts a whole day on my skin. It is a fresh fragrance, but it is not exactly subtle. I still prefer the original Chance, but while my search for the perfect white, creamy floral continues, Eau Tendre remains the Chanel fling of the moment.

I liked it but I feel it's nothing special, or at least not on my skin, not enough sweet nor refreshing, not a scent to remember in my opinion, but it's nice to wear for a change.

Chanel stands for many things. Chanel is not just for young people or only for mature women. So I do not understand all the criticism this perfume gets here? My mom uses Chanel number 5, which I also love. And I use this one because it fits more to girls my age (I'm a teenager). It is fresh, young and feminim. And I think it is very Chanel!

This is another perfume that i gotta have. Even though my ex-boyfriend's name is Chance, I still love this perfume and I still do love my ex-boyfriend.

So feminine and soft and romantic. I love the way this scent makes me feel.

This is a beautiful, really feminine and girly fragrance. It smells very fresh and crisp, and is perfect all year round (in my opinion). Also, the packaging and pink perfume is soo pretty on my vanity.

I have been wearing this for about a month and I have never been complimented so often on a fragrance. I fell in love with the pristine musk dry down. This scent carried all day. I can smell it on my skin after 8 hours plus. Its elegant florals and fresh citrus give it a feminine play at first, but in the end, you will be left with a long lasting crisp and sexy spice.

very clean and safe fragrances..
its almost like Marc Jacobs - Daisy..
Compare it to Daisy is Chance is more to fruity sweet but Daisy is more to Floral sweet..
chance will last longer if you wearing in the hot and sunny day..

I totally agree with HAPPYME2009, i could not describe this perfume better! if heaven had a smell it would be it! this perfume is all about innocence and dreaming.. a little touch of perfection!

The best fruity floral ever! It is simply heavenly, literally! I mean, I smell it and this is how, in my mind, angels would smell like. Young, soft, innocent and plump! Very plump! Just like the Renaissance angels!
The quince and the hyacinths combine to create this sweetness full of delicacy, natural and serene. Ignore the so called sexy advertising. There is nothing sexy about this, just childish, feminine innocence, in a very upscale style. If I didn't know, would I guess this is a Chanel? Absolutely not, this scent surely doesn't have much "chanelish" character. But it's an absolutely charismatic perfume, a little breeze of perfection, and I adore it.

on my skin it smells like pure apple. it lasted long, I could smell it even after a shower. i would like to have it for the spring. the truth is, my chemistry doesn't do well with chanel perfumes(even though I respect them and like them on others) so I guess it is not a chanel perfume as many of you already said. I can say I was surprised that I liked it and then I was expecting to read such reviews.

didn't like the perfume at first but after 5 minutes it gets a lovely flowery and warm smell.. This fragrance will be great for summer and spring !

Chanel for the young...Me generation..exquisitely done. It is somewhat similar to some floral fruity scents out there but it's all in the changing of notes cleverly, classically, transforming- tailored to each ones' unique body chemistry! Only Chanel's in house perfumer, Jacques Polge, can do such masterly deed--Chanel way all the way, baby! How can some of these reviews say there is nothing Chanel with this precious fragrance?? You do get what you pay for. Great for spring and fall, like an ideal cool weather scent.

This to me smell like a combine version of Acqua Di Gioia and Light blue together. I like Acqua Di Gioia but I didn't like light blue. Very citrusing, smell more of the lemon and then finished off with a floral notes. I dont really smell any woody notes in this one.

I have all the chanel perfumes and they all have a place in time. This one is for daytime, when the sun shines. Light and beautifully lingering but it stays well...smells devine when you take that scarf out of the drawer and a whaft of freshness is still there to remind you how delicate and sweet fragrance is.
Not for those who want to pack a punch with their aromas!

I first smelled this perfume on a colleague. Every time she came over I could smell this faint, sweet delicate smell, so subtle I wasn't instantly sure that it was perfume at all, but I absolutely loved it. It was so innocent and gentle and feminine. It took me a long time to purchase it due to it's obvious resemblance to Marc Jacobs Daisy which I already owned. Over time I kept finding myself spraying it on myself at department stores, and knew I had to own it. It's like Daisy but to me it sparkles more and the dry down is lighter and less musky. I'm in my mid-twenties but I think this is a fragrance for any age group - my grandma loves it, but I can also imagine it on a girl in her late teens, and my boyfriend loves it on me. The only downside is it doesn't seem to last that long on my skin.

I was surprised to see so many negative reviews on here, considering I've had so many compliments on it. I think perhaps it's because it's a Chanel perfume, and many perfume enthusiasts don't believe it lives up to that name, but to me there is still something unique and special about it.
So if you're someone reading these reviews who just wants to find a pretty every day scent for a feminine young lady then my advice is to go for it... you really can't go wrong with Eau Tendre...

I smelled this on someone recently, and perhaps it was a function of her chemistry, but the only thing I smelled was a dirty amber- there was nothing "tendre" about it at all-

This Pink Chance is more of a tender Floral scent, with a very light grapefruit in the beginning. The Hyacinth is dominant, a tiny hint of cedar can be detected from the first spritz. Overall, it's fresh, soft and a little powdery. Lasts well in summer.

However, it isn't a unique one, not memorable, too casual considering the brand of Chanel. I'd like to use it, but I won't spend so much to buy.

this is floral and pretty something radically different scent. This is a very very girly fragrance. It is my kind of soft, feminine fragrance.

this perfume smells just like a lighter version of Versace Bright Cristal. awful, simple, ordinary, and no Chanel at all. this is not innocent at all, its cloying, strong and in your face. i will pass this no Chanel scent.

So, I purchased at the Chanel counter after being sprayed by it and loving the light, energetic, fruity and soft scent. I received compliments from everyone on the way home and my Fiance and brother asked me what I was wearing as soon as I got home. I agree with most of the reviews that it starts fresh and fruity and dries down in minutes to a warm powdery smell. I wasn't sure about that, but after wearing a few days and hearing nothing but positive compliments I'm definitely sold. I love it!!! Beautiful scent!

fresh and sweet, this is stunning! I got a sample and didn't think I'd like it but I have nearly finished it. I think this is a great scent for warmer weather when you want to put a spring in your step. Definitely full bottle worthy.

Actually smelled this on a coworker for the past few days, I totally thought it was her laundry detergent as it kind of had that smell to me. I thought it was great though. Today someone commented on her scent and she told them that it was this. I thought it was detergent, but it still smells great and clean. I will totally be buying a bottle.

There's nothing Chanel in this scent. Chance Eau tendre is soft, sweet and pretty but definitely nothing special. I can appreciate all other Chanel perfumes even though I wouldn't wear them all, but this is just a waste of time and money. There are dozens similar scents in the market already. Just another boring crowd pleaser, not what I would expect from Chanel.

People kept saying it smelled similar to Daisy and I didn't believe them until I tried it. it does have a similarity but not all the way, in this one the daisy smell is not as pronounced. I don't like Daisy and I don't like this one either. Very generic and synthetic smelling, too expensive for what it is.

My review of this scent is very simple.

Chance Eau Tendre = Lancome Miracle
Lancome Miracle = Chance Eau Tendre

Such a striking similarity...Chance is significantly more expensive though..

They are both soft floral/fruity smells which I think are gorgeous. They almost smell like scented tissues, very delicate. Very clean and pretty.

I tried the Eau Tendre of Chanel Chance and concluded that this is definitely a softer scent by Chanel. They decided to color the liquid pink which was a good choice as it smells like it should be pink. This is a very very girly fragrance. The Chanel ads position it “as a delicate, radiant incarnation of the decidedly young scent.” I tend to agree with this. A younger woman and maybe even a preteen could wear this.

All in all, I like this fragrance for the younger set.

i'm not into chanel scents cause i find 'em too strong, except for this new fragrance Eau Tendre. It's an everyday wear and not too hot for a tropical climate.

Hmm, this could be the first Chanel I actually like and might want to wear. All other Chanels are too sharp and sobering to my nose, they are business woman scents to me, and I am not really attracted by that image. Chance Tendre, however, is much more youthful and very non-Chanel, if I may say so. I am surprised how many people here dislike this - to me it is a very neat, well-constructed, likeable, youthful scent.

At first it was regular-bad to me... but after some minutes it turned into a soft smell of sweat. Really. Awful. I'm going to give it another try, maybe there was something wrong with that bottle or who knows?

Edit: tried it again and the same thing happened, the sweaty smell!

I find this ok, too powdery for me. I prefer the Eau Fraiche way better. This is an everyday office perfume for me maybe? But I'm sure has the potential to smell wonderful on others :) Just not on me :(

Normally I can find something I like about a scent--the opening--the dry down--the juxtaposition of notes, but for me, Tendre falls flat on all counts. It's strange to me actually that Chanel released this and is stranger still that Jacques Polge, clearly a master, was the mastermind behind Eau Tendre. In my opinion the concoction simply doesn't work. I wore it several times and really tried to like it, but there's just too much wrong here. For me, no more 'chances' for Tendre. Quel dommage...

nice n very good smell...

very nice perfume got lots of compliments , new perfume , different smell nothing like other Chanel perfumes.

Being a Chanel-fan (love Coco Mademoiselle and Allure Sensuelle) I had been looking forward to this one for months, but when I finally got it I found it not that Chanel-ish. And each time when wearing it, it gave me a headache like hell! So I gave it to a friend, and on her it does smell gorgeous!

And once again, chanel created a miracle! I've tested almost every fragrance in market but chanel is always what smells wonderful on my skin! Except Chanel No5,N when I'm sprayed with chanel perfums everybody asks me what's my fragrance is. I'm glad that I've finelly found a perfum that great for summer and morning fresh for winter!

I am over 70 and purchased a 50ml bottle of au tendre. I have never had so many compliments and so many people asking me what perfume I was wearing.I could have sold it to at least 10 people !I love it.. My friend has daisy by MJ and never gets the same reaction from people.I think Daisy smells CHEAP.

I prefer this version of CHANCE ,because on my wrist is romantic,tender....so good.It isn't very long lasting, like other fresh fragrances.Dry down is tipical for CHANEL:VERY SPECIALLY!!!

The opening is sweet, juicy and playful.
Tendre? Definitely!

After spraying the perfume on my wrist, I was delighted! For some strange reason I was sure there was apple in the notes..
other wise, a nice perfume!

Chance Eau Tendre doesn't have an inch of that distinctive Chanel quality we all know, so it seems. This fragrance is almost a complete replicate of Live Platinum by Jennifer Lopez. You should have seen the Chanel representative's face when I announced this similarity.

Going on smooth yet soapy, Chance eau Tendre has a somewhat synthetic edge. Don't get me wrong, I do like both this fragrance and Live Platinum to a certain extent, however with the latter, I tired of it easily and ended up giving the bottle to someone who appreciated it.

The grapefruit and quince are the obvious top notes, which tend to sparkle with vitality and youth. The heart however becomes increasingly soapy and musky, which gives me the notion that this fragrance hasn't been as well constructed as other fragrances in the Chanel line.

With this fragrance, I think that Chanel is trying to please the younger crowd, letting them know that Chanel isn't just for the sophisticated, older ladies. In my personal opinion, and this is coming from someone in their early 20's, I'd much rather wear Chanel No.5 over this soapy, synthetic floral mess.

The scent may be interesting, yes, and the lasting strength impressive like most Chanel perfumes are, but I honestly wouldn't advise anyone to fork out the big bucks for this. I say enough of all the Chance flankers, give us something new and unique Chanel!

I smelt it first time in Barcelona. My husband bought it for me. So when I smell it now I'm thinking about Costa Brava :)
When I have it on me I feel lucky, happy, just wonderfull feeling to have it!

This is a nice floral fruity fragrance that is a bit more grown up then other floral fruity fragrances out there.

That being said, I agree with the other poster in that it can become extremely cloying in hot weather and is VERY sweet at times.

I personally think this would be a nicer scent for fall as I think it would really bloom on a cooler day.

Amazing fragrance! I got this perfume before my honeymoon in Tobago - wore it all the time and loved it, very fresh for hot days and stays well on skin and clothes, I had girl folowing me in mall in New York asking me what fragrance do I wear, and just now my male coleague sitting 4 meters away in the office asked what is it I wear, that it's smells lovely - that actually made me to search for the reviews and post my experience. It's summer in a bottle! My best friend uses the classical Chance- and for me its too sour and acidy, but Tendre...I looooove it! want to drink it :-)

i think this is the best from chanel fresc sweet spesial love it

I agree with Hathor's review below. Although it is supposed to be a summer fragrance I find it a bit suffocating on a hot day (above +25C). It just looks innocent and pink, actually I find it quite longlasting (at least 8hours) and it has a very good sillage (mom enters the house: -mm, something smells nice-is it your new fragrance?/ me: Im upstairs, mom-cant hear you).
I think it would be lovely on a spring/early autumn day, but for hot days I find my Dior Cherie Leau refreshing. Of course, it is not a super strong scent but the heat makes people more sensitive to smells.

Also I would say it is more of a little sister of Coco Mademoiselle (I understand this one is 'related' to coco) than Chance. It also doesnt smell to me as similar to MJ Daisy (well it still does a bit) as I thought it did before I got to own it.

To add, this gets me a lot of compliments as it was probably created to appeal to crowds. Sadly even some of my beloved other perfumes dont get that much appreciation.

so far me and this one aren't getting on too well. i don't get the grapefruit in the top note, just smell the quince. i wouldn't call it refreshing at all. i find it disappears fairly quickly on my skin, but i sprayed it on a dress and it lasted on that for ages. it suits me only on days that i'm in a frivolous mood and wearing a multi-coloured summer dress or a pink top. on a warm-ish day but not too warm. i agree with some of the other reviews that it isn't quite special enough to be a chanel. i also have Flower Party from Yves Rocher which is also a "Fun fruity floral for summer" and which i actually prefer. i'd put them in the same category of smells. anyway i keep on trying it because i think i must be missing something. sometimes it's better to wait for cooler weather and then try again. For a refreshing summer smell the Chance Eau Fraiche is much more my cup of tea. although i'm an enormous Chanel devotee, this is one i may not replace when it runs out, or with a smaller bottle. so far not too impressed but not completely decided yet.p.s in the meantime i've got through half my bottle. funnily enough i seem to be enjoying it more now that the weather has cooled down (summer is a sort of silly-season for my nose, in hot weather nothing really seems to work). it does seem to have quite a sillage and people keep complimenting me on it.

Disappointing. Boring, not original, totally not belong to Chanel. This is more like Marc Jacobs Daisy with less sweet. But still lost the sophistication of Chanel. Chanel should discontinue producing this perfume. Get back on track!! Chanel don't create a celebrity perfume, and Chanel belong to women who appreciate themselves, not fancy of themselves. Totally will not be in my wardrobe. Never ever be...!!!

Update on Eau Tendre: Men love it! I got tired of it fast but will wear it occasionally simply for the reason just stated!

wow-
I have been using a small sample of this all week and just HAD to go purchase my own full bottle- crisp, clean, SUMMER!
Thanks Chanel!

Chance Eau Tendre is my kind of soft, feminine fragrance, so I didn't let the "Not Chanel Enough" logic dissuade me after I tried a sample & then checked out fragrantica's reviews...I kept enjoying the sparkly-powdery top notes and then found myself deeply sniffing the light, innocent drydown scent from my wrist. It's subtly sweet, with a little citrus...mmmm, almost vanilla as in angel food cake. It has qualities that I love in Guerlain's L'Instant Magic, my other "BFF Perfume"-a charming mix of freshness and refined sweetness. Just retuned to the store & bought a 1.7 oz. bottle. Looking forward to discovering others' reactions to it...

went to the mall today n tested this frag. Whoaaa... all i got was a cheap shampoo smell on my skin. What a huge disappointment cause i really like the other 2 Chance; the original Chance & the Eau Fraiche. I didnt even bother to smell my backhand again on where i spritzed it cause the smell was really unattractive to my nose. I dont understand y fragrance companies nowadays r blatantly so into producing low quality smelling flankers.

Chanel u could've done so much better. :(

I'm not young but still in love with this parfume. That is exactly what I've been searching for. And at the end I feel a gentle rose in it, strange.. but wonderful. to my nose it's so innocent and warm, very touching and nicely done!

Chance Eau Tendre is a disappointment to me too. It does start really nice and gives me the similar optimistic vibe that Eau Fraiche does, but in a sweet, pink, nice girly way. I did fall at that moment. If it stayed that way, it could be a really pretty day perfume.
However, here comes the horror: in less than 10 minutes, it smells just like Daisy by Marc Jacobs with a much longer Daisy strawberry/clean phase.
It is a nice perfume, but too generic to be a Chanel.

A light and pleasant, but unremarkable fruity floral. OK sillage and lasting power. Daytime warm weather use. I like it better than Chance, but I don't like it enough to buy a full bottle. I would recommend this to someone who is transitioning from cheaper fruity florals (e.g Escadas) to better quality fruity floral perfumes.

I just bought this and I am absolutely in love! It is a delightful fresh, soft scent, that is romantic enough to be worn on a date, but light enough that you could wear a little spritz to the office as well. I prefer it to the original Chance, which I always found a little overpowering. It's a perfect spring and summer fragrance.

This perfume is GREAT,i tried it today and can still smell it one my hand.Its just fresh and pretty..perfect spring/summer scent

I found it extremely similar to Creed's Acqua Fiorentina and also to Cacharel Promesse. Nearly identical, in fact. I prefer this one though, as it is much softer. Acqua Fiorentina is just too tart and bitter for my taste. Chance Tendre feels like a mildly sweet glass of champagne: it's refined, sparkly and tastefully fruity. The drydown is very woodsy and cedar-like. I will not purchase it as I already own a bottle of Promesse and they are simply too similar to justify the expediture.

nothing special, smells like rose water, forgetfull and dissapointing for Chanel perfume, lasting power is 1 hour...

i love this perfume, everyone like's different kind of smell if you like to smell clean and fresh not too over powering then you will love it , it also last long so what more do you need, Thank you chanel

Very nice, I don't know anything about chanel perfumes but I can tell that this is not typical. I think its more similar to Burberry the beat after initial dry down than it does Daisy

I read so many bad comment that i thought i would not like this perfume,specially i don not like "Daisy",but to my surprise "Chance Eau Tendre" smells different on my skin then daisy,more fresh and rich,Chanel is Chanel,anyway ,"Allure" still is a masterpiece for me

it smells just like MJ Daisy! i'm glad to see that others have picked up on this. MJ daisy is one of my favurite perfumes out there and so I love the Chanel eau tendre just as much. there's very little point buying this fragrance though as it is so light that it doesn't last very long. 3/5

Right now, I appear to be turning into something of a curmudgeon about fragrance. I don't mean to but I can't help it. Here's an example, a perfume from one of the great houses, Chance Eau Tendre is gentle, flowery and almost entirely personality free. If Stepford wives could be bottled, they'd smell like this.

another fruity floral in the market! the consumers definitely cant get enough of fruity floralness.

i am getting ready to get disappointed and set my standards very low when i tested this one. but to my surprise, it is quite good! silleage was perfect and it last longer than the other fruity florals i have tried. and my skin agrees with the floral-powdery musky drydown.

this scent is very safe and easy to like. i can see many girls and young ladies would love this one. expect to sniff this alot in people in the street.

starts with enjoyable flowers and fruits mix with citruses on top. then it dries down to flower+powder+musk... soft and safe.

enjoy it but i dont love it so much that i will buy it

I am going to re-review this today. As I am wearing it on my skin this time, not just paper. After testing eau tendre today...I can't wait to get my hands on the full size bottle. On paper this smells like grapefruit powder. On my skin..wow..I can't even explain how feminine, luminous and fantastic this is. I would still say that eau tendre is based around citrus, but there is a woody/musky base that lingers forever once applied on the skin. I can't wait to get it!

What a beautiful fragrance! It really is...but I truly cannot understand why Chanel launched it since there's another one just like this. I'm talking of course about Daisy from Marc Jacobs. I'm wandering what was in their mind ? Such a well known brand to launch a copy cat...Just like when Dior released Miss Dior Chery L'eau ( incredibly similar to Chanel Chance Eau Frache). So if you like Daisy, but want to have a Chanel in your collection , buy this!

Tested this when I walked past the Chanel counter the other day and fell in love with it!! Another classy and sophisticated scent by Chanel, the "youngest sister" of the Chance range - floral, light, sweet and fresh with very good staying power. Makes one feel very romantic and feminine. Mmmmm.....

I agree, this is too similar to Marc Jacobs Daisy, so much so that there is no need to buy it. Daisy is wayyyyy better, AND original!!

Coco Mademoiselle is my absolute favorite. In winter I wear next to this Allure Sensuelle, but I was looking for something to wear in summertime. I tried Chance Eau Fraiche a few years ago, not even finshed my bottle, cause it was too fresh and sharp to me. Eau Tendre is softer, I smell some Eau Fraiche in but like this Eau Tendre more. I don't agree with people who say this is so unlike Chanel, cause I do smell the typical Chanel ingredient in the dry-down of this one too.

I am surprised Chanel decided to launch a perfume that is strikingly similiar to already existing Daisy by MJ. It is a lovely, fresh, crisp frangrance. However, not something I would expect of Chanel house.

Smells nice, light, sweet, fresh and citrusy. Lasts really well too. My tester card is still smelling strong even after three days. ;') There are cheaper sweet, light, fresh and citrusy alternatives out there and in my collection. But with the impressive lasting power I may have to get a bottle for a good price. ;')

I really like the fragrance, since
chanel eau fraiche is strong for me to have it on summer..and also i really love grapefruits .. but i do think this so expensive. and so un- chanel...

I finally tested this yesterday. And yes, the similarity with MJ DAISY is noticeable. The bottle of EAU TENDRE is much more practical and more good looking though.

jae: Yes, I totally agree with you! I find it great that Chanel does expand it's selection for younger customers. Don't we all deserve our Chanel? ;)

EAU TENDRE is clear and feminine smelling fragrance that is not that recognizable or unique, the wearer just simply smells clean fresh and feminine. This fragrance is very pleasing and I can't imagine anyone to be bothered if someone sitting next to you was wearing EAU TENDRE.

If I didn't already have HUGO BOSS FEMME which has exactlty the same effect though the notes are different I'd probably buy this.

Yup, I bought it today. Actually, I want to buy Mademoiselle. But, when I smell Chance Eau Tendre, wow! Makes me feel happy and yes I want this too! So, I end up to have both! At home, when I spray Chance Eau Tendre on my wrist, YES I agree it is similar to Daisy MJ which I already have. After an hour, it smell better and not really similar to Daisy MJ. Hu hu...luckily I only bought for 50ml bottle for this. Yes, it only an ordinary smell, nothing special like Daisy or Lola.

I have to chime in on this one. This is a very pleasant fragrance. The name suits this one perfectly. It lasts forever on fabric (virtual longevity) and the sillage is just right. I'll definitely be purchasing this one for my girlfriend. I've smelled MJ Daisy before and I don't find Chance Eau Tendre to be THAT identical to Daisy. In fact, I prefer this one over Daisy, which my girlfriend finds rather heavy. Most people who are giving such harsh critiques are die-hard Chanel fans who typically wear No.5, No.22, No. 19, etc. (aka the OLD stuff). Well, these people are already covered and catered to by Chanel's previous releases, which spans decades. What's wrong with expanding the range to attract a younger audience, ha? Do they not deserve a Chanel that suits them? Have you all forgotten what the purpose of a flanker is?

I absolutely loved this perfume!!!! It was so light and yet stayed with me all day..even the next morning it was still there....I thought it lasted so much longer than MJ Daisy, although I really like that scent as well....This is going to definitley be my summer perfume!

I do NOT like the dry down in this one. Opening is just like Mariah Carey's Luscious Pink but 2 minutes later something weire happens. There's some kind of rotten grapefruity powerdyish smell to it. Why couldn't I love this? I also HATE the Marc Jacobs Daisy dry down also.

I don't like it at all. Smells sour and cheap, a lot like deodorant. Original Chance it fresh and classy - Chance eau Tendre is not.

Unfortunately it DOES smell a lot like Marc Jacobs Daisy... It is girly, pretty, sparkly and nice. I maybe would prefer it to Daisy because I find it a bit less sweet and slightly more fruity. However, I bet many won't even be able to distinguish it from Daisy in a blind test.

I sampled this one in a magazine I was surprised that it didn't smelled like a Chanel to me. My thinking is that Chanel has so many other unique great fragrances targeted to mature women that they want to attract a younger market and stay competitive in that respect. I would love to try this one on my skin, I'm sure the quality speaks for itself. One thing to keep in mind is that it's not only the fragrance it's also body chemistry that has a lot to do with it too! I'm sure they'll do great with this one!

and still...it is So UN-chanel... it is mistake that they made something for everybody, all their scents were unique, not for everybody, but this one is like the rest of the fresh-light perfumes, there is a lot of similar fragrances.

Usually Chanel fragrances are too strong for my taste (such as number 5... I hated that), with the exception of Coco Mademoiselle. I was excited to see that they came out with something that seemed a bit more fruity-floral oriented (though I know many people are sick of that-- not me!) I sprayed it on and was so incredibly underwhelmed! It had to be one of the most boring, flat scents i've tried in awhile. Not bad. If somebody gave me a bottle, I'd wear it now and then in the summertime. But I would never even consider buying it.

this is the best fragrance from chanel is different from the others because is sweet fruity delicious and fresh it smells like grepfruit beautyfull for the spring and summer

What a surprise...:)
I unfortunately can't stand Chanel frangrances (I tried so many times), because I found them too strong, heavy and old-fashioned. I know that Chanel is a very big and respectable brand, but these frangrances are not my type...
But... I've tried Chance eau tendre and it was a really huge surprise!!! It is very different from the other Chanel fragrances. It's light, sophisticated and fresh.:)
It's too sophisticated for teens... It's perfect for young women who have style, and straight personality.

I think it's for everyday use. Maybe I will buy it.;) It will be my first Chanel perfume.

This one really is lovely! I went to the store to buy Madamoiselle but this was just younger, fresher, sweeter and prettier! Still very Chanelesque as it has good staying power and the notes come together so seamlessly. Just adorable!

i dont know what to chose between this one or the Mj-Daisy. this two smell so alike to me, too. which of these two lasts longer and is stronger? anyone...knows?

I love this fragrance, very elegant, suitable for all sorts of occasions.

This one is exactly like Daisy by Marc Jacobs on my skin... I don't know how Chanel could release a fragranse THAT similar to another popular fragrance...

Anyway, it's good, but if one has Daisy, than deffinately doesn't need this one...

I admire the grapefruit note! Chance Eau Tendre is the best in the Chance colletion. If you compere it to other Chanel's perfumes, it is totally different! Fresh, young, playful, for summertime.
I believe it is great suprise from Chanel:)

Pink floral fruity made by Chanel? Made me suspicious. And disappointed in advance. With the first opportunity I tried it on my skin. Both wrists. And neck.

The first notes reminded me on Eau Fraiche. The same sparkling, crisp, almost masculine citrus. In few seconds I inhaled light sweet smell. The hyacinth. Covered my skin like silk. I was no longer scared of the pink Chanel bottle. It kept elegant style and femininity. Moderate in strength, excellent in quality.

Few moments later I sit for the coffee and newspapers. Someone smelled my neck, looked at me, and said something I realized the same moment I wrapped Eau Tendre around me "This smells like you"
I know :)

To me it smells very nice, although I agree that it doesn't smell "Chanel" at all. To me it smells a lot like Marc Jacobs Daisy, only the base is slightly different, it's fresher and has better sillage. Well I like it a lot because I love Daisy, but I understand why Chanel fans may be disappointed on this.

It`s reminds me a Promesse by Cacharel, but Cacharel is much better. Sounds strange. What would be next?

I wanted to buy this and I would've but I already own Mariah Carey's Luscious Pink. I'm convinced they are the same scent. Too bad, because I'm sure this one will last longer :(

I am soooooo diaspointed!!! really!! I just entered the store and was to surprised to see it in february, as I was waiting for it in April and thought that it would definetely be my next summer fragrance!!! Definetely Not a Chanel Scent, It instantly reminded me of Mediteraneas Sea bu Elizabeth Arden, but even a cheap version of that!!! Doesn't have anything common with Chance and neither Chance Frauche!So I guess I'll Buy fraeche again!!! I can't even name were it is possible to wear, day time, summer or what??? Very Disappointed!!!

So, so dissappointed! It appears the Chanel House has lost its mojo in both fragrance creation and perfume naming. First of all, Chanel Chance Eau Tendre? Reminds me of Nina Ricci, Ricci Ricci or Nina Nina or some such nonesense. Second, the fragrance itself smells like absolutely nothing, if it were a sound it would be white noise. Not worth spending a single penny on. What perfume shall I buy for summer - the question is still open!

I agree with loveperfumes! This one really I can't call Chanel! it is the same as Lanvin eclat, or feragammo fascinating or some another just light perfume without personality. Very dissapointed...I expected something better. yes, it is good, smmells good, but not as Chanel should smell. very ordinary, without classy or elegant feeling.

I hate to write negative reviews. Doing that now only because we turned out to be "in the avant-garde": as written above Chance Eau Tendre arrives in the world market in April but has appeared in Moscow before the women’s day we are having in March, so it’s a perfect period for sales.

Huge disappointment. Neither Chanel nor Chance traces. It would be OK under Escada or Nina Ricci brand but totally discouraging as Chanel Chance flanker. Sweet, boring, very, very common. For days it’s been discussed on Russian perfume sites and I haven’t read any positive review yet. Even the Sales Assistant felt lost presenting this scent to me in the shop. Chance and Chance Eau Fraiche are masterpieces comparing to that.

The parfume is amazing, so clear and refreshening. It last long, as summer fragrance.

This reminds me a very water down version of Lancome Miracle. But this one is with very good staying power. I like this parfume, it is suitable for summer and spring time. It is different from original Chance.
