Chloe Innocence
by Chloé
Chloe Innocence is a crisp, ethereal white floral fragrance with a distinct green and aquatic opening centered around water hyacinth and bergamot. The heart blooms with delicate honeysuckle, jasmine, rose, and violet, creating a powdery, softly sweet mid-phase that feels both pure and romantic. As it settles, the fragrance develops a subtle woody-musky base of cedar, vetiver, iris, and musk, lending depth and warmth without heaviness. The overall impression is light, clean, and highly refined—reminiscent of a pristine spring day, fresh laundry, or a calm lake bathed in sunlight. It wears with moderate sillage and moderate longevity, though many users report longer-than-average performance. The scent remains timeless and distinctive, with a unique balance of freshness and soft sophistication, evoking memories of innocence, purity, and youthful elegance. Its clean, radiant character makes it ideal for daytime wear in spring and summer, with a highly feminine and delicate aura. Despite being discontinued, it continues to inspire devotion and nostalgia, with many users comparing it closely to Shiseido Energizing due to overlapping notes and similar structure.
