Chloe (for women)

exciter76

This edt is so shamelessly dated--and I love it for that very reason. Close your eyes and imagine Stevie Nicks' lace get-up swirling about you. This is what I would imagine her air to smell like.

A ton of memories came flooding back at first spray. I could smell my mother's beautiful dresses, the ones I used to get into and play dress up. I could smell the beautiful women of my childhood, seeming so sophisticated, fashionable, and regal. They were the women I anxiously aspired to be.

I can't put my finger on what element makes this fragrance smell so dated, aside from the fact that it does not smell fruity or vanillic as most scents do today. The tuberose and lilac come to the forefront and make no plans of leaving anytime soon. Come to think of it, they don't leave for several hours. The peach lends a fleshy-scented quality which leaves quickly and the carnation and ylang-ylang give the fragrance a spicy kick. After several hours, the musk and sandalwood contribute to a floral-tinged incense quality.

An aside, for those of you who want to pick up a bottle of the original formula edt, know that it can be purchased cheap ($20) at Marshall's.

I used to loathe this scent back in the day, but I was young and at the time preferred oriental scents. Things have changed...
I was admiring a coworkers scent and it turned out to be the dreaded Chloe, I was in raptures over the smooth creamy tuberose/white floral bouquet and immediately went through two bottles, enjoying every moment.
I am saddened that the powers that be decided to rebrand the name and retire this particular scent and am now in the process of tracking down some bottles to keep.

Shame this was discontinued, it has a nice warm, heavy aroma the new chloe doesnt have as much character

The thrill of many perfumes are going as the companies are being taken over by corporations who are trying to make all perfumes the same. There is a reaction. If everyone who is disappointed in a new bottle of an old favourite complains, then maybe "they" will take note!

Chatnoir

Its a shame they retired the "old" version of this perfume. I loved the richness of "Chloe"- so many things were going on at once, yet they all worked so well together. It was one of those seamless 70's scents that emphasized the harmony of all of the notes together instead of highlighting any one note. I will have to use my tiny bottle of this sparingly.

I had it twice the old one. I loved it. I wasn't thrilled to learn that it was a favourite of the Ayatollah Khomeini!

My Mom wore this alot when I was very small. It still makes me think of her wool dress suits she wore to work. This is a real woman scent! It is stron so you dont need much. The aldehydes really stand out in this one. Chloe changes over the day and is one of those you scents you will leave on whatever you wear or rub against! Sexy!

Chloé was the first "real" fragrance I had, and I got it from my first "real" boyfriend. He gave it to me because he thought it smelled so good on his previous girlfrind (!?) Not a very good start for a relationship with the perfume (or boyfriend - it didn't last very long). Anyway, I would like to try it again. I remember it was far to loud for me at that time. But so was also Anais Anais, that I like now. I will definitely get some kind of sample on this to evaluate the flower explosion again

so far the worst perfume I've ever had !!
it is too heavy .....makes u feel depressed when u wear it.....

Honey Bee

It's an interesting scent and a bit heavy but I got compliments when I used to wear it.

In den 70ern mochte ich diesen Duft sehr.
Einige Jahre später konnte ich ihn nicht mehr riechen.

In the 70th I liked this smell very much. Some years later I could not smell him any more.

To bold and strong for me. I Gave my brand new bottle to my mom and she likes it, so I'm happy I gave it a nice home :)

Halvah

I may have tried a very old, even spoiled bottle... When testing, it was a classic, deep scent, but it turned into something thrilling bad, really. although I love classic scents from the beginning of the 20th century, and this is from 1975....

Nazireh

after smelling this perfume again, I would say it's one of my favorites: a warm, bold, sexy, yet mysterious smell. I really pick up the peach and tuberose in this perfume. It's gorgeous and classic!

Nuppu

Powdery, creamy peach and tuberose, comfortable yet a bit strong.

Nazireh

For some reason this perfume reminds me of patchouli...I think it's an interesting scent, something that will definitely get u noticed. It's strong, sensual and sexy. It definitely does have a powdery enveloping-warm floral scent. Good for night-time use.

benzippo

An tuberose note to the extreme where you either like it or hate it. May smell outdated to some but all in all a great perfume creation not to mention the memories it will evoke on those who wore it during their glamorous years....

I used to love this one. I tried it again a few years latter. What happened? The thrill is gone.
