Coco Chanel was quoted as saying she nearly fainted with joy when she saw a Coromandel screen for the first time. My reaction was the same when I first smelled Coromandel way back in 2007; its intricately worked composition of dark patchouli, golden hued resins, decadent white chocolate and sparkling citrus is as beautiful as any of the Coromandel screens I saw hanging in Coco’s apartment on my visit.

With the entire collection sat before me in their monolithic 200ml glass vessels with weighty black gloss magnetic CC embossed caps, substituted with carded samples from Chanel for those I do not own, here are my thoughts on each of the extraordinary Les Exclusifs de CHANEL fragrances.

Born a Leo on 19 August 1883, the lion held considerable significance for Gabrielle Chanel. Now, CHANEL returns once again to Gabrielle’s beloved lion as a source of inspiration, this time by immortalizing it in olfactory form as Le Lion de CHANEL, the latest addition to the Les Exclusifs de CHANEL collection of perfumes. Rendering this CHANEL lion as an amber oriental, perfumer Olivier Polge has crafted a bone-dry, coppery and sensual perfume that is warm and inviting, yet simultaneously austere and sophisticated in a manner that feels very appropriate of CHANEL.
