Chanel Coco Perfume By Cindy Leggett on Sep 25, 2007 - Updated Oct 15, 2011

A classy and distinctive, long-lasting scent created in 1984, Coco by Chanel is a spicy Oriental blend with top notes of mandarin, coriander and peach, middle notes of orange blossom, mimosa, clove and rose, and base notes of sandalwood, vanilla and amber. It is sophisticated and mature, not at all light or girlish... definitely a woman's scent. Upscale and yes, sexy, this has been my signature fragrance for many years. Oh, I have other perfumes that I wear, but I will never be without a bottle of Coco! I get MANY compliments when I wear this, to the point where other women have gone and bought some for themselves, only to complain to me later that "it smells better on you!" Body chemistry has everything to do with how a perfume will smell on an individual, so I guess I am one of the lucky ones who has the proper chemistry for Coco. It lasts a very long time.. in fact, you can smell it on the bedsheets the next morning! And no, I don't pour it on. It actually takes very little of this perfume... one or two good spritzs... to do the job. It's not an overpowering scent... just a delectable one. A classic perfume that everyone should try!
