Coco Mademoiselle Intense
by Chanel
Coco Mademoiselle Intense offers a richer, deeper interpretation of the original fragrance, amplifying the patchouli and vanilla foundation with a warmer, more luxurious character. The opening features a softened citrus burst compared to the original, quickly giving way to a smooth, enveloping base of patchouli, vanilla, tonka bean, and labdanum. It's more rounded and opulent than the original, making it feel more mature and sophisticated. Longevity and sillage are exceptional, with potent projection and a lasting trail that often earns compliments. The fragrance evolves beautifully on the skin, with the dry down being warm, balsamic, and slightly sweet, offering a deeply comforting yet intense experience. It performs best in cooler weather and on formal occasions, offering a powerful, elegant presence. While subtly different from the original, when it resonates with an individual skin chemistry, it delivers a luxurious, modern Chanel experience.
