Coco (for women)

Designer: Chanel Olfactive Group: Oriental Spicy
Video

Coco was the first perfume created by the Chanel house after the death of Coco Chanel. Perfume creator Jacques Polge tried to capture both her style and image, and the atmosphere of her Parisian Cambon street apartment in this perfume. Coco – as Gabrielle Chanel was called by close friends and relatives – is a reminder of her youth, when she tried to build a career of a singer and actor that she finally gave up because of haute couture.

The beautiful fruity bouquet of the top notes includes peach and tangerine accompanied with the spicy sharpness of coriander. The heart is composed of delicate baroque flowers such as rose and jasmine, surrounded by the sweet fragrance of orange, mimosa, and sweet and spicy nuance of clove. The base notes of vanilla, amber and sandalwood softly end the composition. The perfume was created in 1984. Coco was launched in 1984.

rich, exotic, classy - should most definitely be used appropriately. Mostly only wore this in the autumn and winter.

Ahhh. I love to wear this to sleep. When the scent settles about two hours after spraying, it is a warm honey smell. I ran out of my coco and ended up pulling my sweatshirt from the laundry basket to smell it, until I got money for more. Addictive? YES!

i don't like it

I didn't like it when I smelled it the first time because it remembered me of somebody or somehing I didn't like in the past. But it has only got to do with what I associate with the perfume, I don't blame the perfume ;-)
So I "forced" myself to see it as a neutral perfume, to get to know it anew. I like it better everyday...

I actually had a male customer return to my store, and when the manager asked if he needed any help, he said he only wanted to speak with "that girl that smelled so good" last time he was there. Another man told the cashier he came to buy four bottles of wine, but ended up buying nine, because he did not want to walk away from me. Somehow, coco makes me feel happy

This scent is totally worth the cost! My husband adores it, and it has great staying power. Somehow, it is a very relaxed scent, hours after it settles into your sking. I have heard many folks argue that "no one really buys chanel perfumes and that the idea of No.5 being the number one seller in the world is all hype." Not true! Many folks fail to recognize when someone is wearing Coco or No.5 because the scent becomes so intimate that it blends differently with each person's body, and smells different on everyone. Not like some scents today, that smell like people bathed in them, and smell the same on everyone, just like it came out of the bottle.

This is the only perfume I will wear. I feel secure, knowing it won't get discontinued like so many celebrity scents out these days. On me, it fades to a lovely base note of vanilla and spiced honey.

One of the original 80s power scents, and a bloody good one. Great for evening wear. The EDP, as ever, is far superior to the EDT.

this one is the BEST EVER!!!
though a bit strong in the beginning. hard and soft at the same time, it reminds of pedantic order and exotic fantasy, it develops slowly into a very very feminine and seductive, truly wonderful image of a strong, independent WOMAN
a masterpiece!

I had this perfume ten years ago and I want to buy it again. Is smells sophisticated and really rich. Staying power is great.

I tried both the EDT and EDP and ended up purchasing the EDT. All I can say is try this perfume, its wonderful and warm. I LOVE this classic scent.

Coco is the only Chanel perfume I've tried that I really like. (I don't like Chanel No. 5 at all. Allure is too flowery to me. And although I like Cristalle, it changes on me, and doesn't smell as nice as it does on others.) Unfortunately, Coco makes my husband feel like he's having an asthma attack.

I personally like it, because it smells like a very strong-smelling Bounce dryer sheet.

One of the strongest and in the same time most sophisticated perume that I've ever had.
It is not for everyday use, it should be rounded with complete story in respect of dress, occasion of use ect.
Very rich and very nice.
