In the drydown the watermelon fades, giving space to a very pleasant base of sandalwood, amber and light musks, all of them enriched by a sweet touch of tonka bean. While I was brooding for hours in front of the wardrobe, she was ready in 5 minutes and always looked fancy bello - without ever looking dressed up.

Chic is perfect for someone in their mid twenties to their early forties who need a unique fragrance for fun summer or springtime outings.And also the fragrance is chic in an unpretentious way, because it is rather casual - in a charming way. The hint of watermelon and cardamom bomb in the opening always boost my mood and the bergamont, lemon and mandarin notes in the background make it feel more fresh and clean. Second time, I walked out of a gas station and I kid you not a woman followed me out off the gas station and said “ hey you!

To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. I took Chic with me and while it's one of those fragrances that I don't really notice on myself after 2 hours, it must have superior sillage because people were tracking me down (the place is huge and easy to lose yourself in) by following my fragrance trail :).The opening is really fresh and very citrusy, with a light essence of watermelon and a good heap of cinnamon. The very moment that you trigger the perfume, you are shot with a blast of citrus and watermelon which vanishes in a matter of seconds and then makes a comeback, this time, with spices. I blind bought chic based on a lot if reviewers mentioning similarities to CH 212 men and some even saying that it's a better version of it, I've been trying to find any fragrance that plays the versatile everyday role better than 212, and until now I'm failing miserably, chic is not similar to 212, not even close, not even in the same league.

With some natural sweetness emanating from this fruit accord, spicy cinnamon and cardamom attempt to tame this rather sugary and emasculating opening.The 103 third parties who use cookies on this service do so for their purposes of displaying and measuring personalized ads, generating audience insights, and developing and improving products. I don't get very much musk or sandalwood, and the freesia seems to be pretty well blended into the other florals (thankfully) in this version. I first bought a bottle of Chic back in 2009 that smelled different from the bottle I bought in 2013. The drydown introduces a vanilla-amber combo, which is very pleasant, although nothing groundbreaking or unique. If you're a freesia fan then I'm guessing you might like it, but I would sample it first to be on the safe side.
