Chance (2002)
by Chanel

Chance by Chanel is my first fragrance from the Chanel line. When I was sprayed with a sample at Macy's, I was immediately captured by its full-bodied warmth. It is a very bold fragrance, strong and invading, but once it dies down a bit, it is utterly splendid-sophisticated and sexy all at once. This is perfect for evening.

Peppery and floral. It's definitely not a grown up scent, the sort of thing you wear in your early 20's when you've stopped wearing the cheap sweet overly fruity scents of your teens but havnt quite reached sophistication yet. It's nothing special, the notes tend to meld together, all i get is something strong and floral and something spicy. Not a signature scent, but nice enough when you're young and just want to have fun.

This has a sharp modern sweetness that's almost berry like. It's not my taste since it's too artificial for me. I'm sorry, but it smells very cheap and very much like the drug store scents teen aged girls spray themselves with to cover up the smell of weed or to cover sweet after dancing in da club. Yuck! I was given this sample, not expecting it would be my taste, but at least expecting something youthful and pretty. It's just youthful. :(

Great fragrance, plan to buy a bottle. Blended well with my body chemistry.

I can understand the popularity surrounding this fragrance. I would classify Chance as being much more of a casual and youthful fragrance as compared to other Chanel perfumes. The pineapple and iris are really strong in this perfume. It was hard for me to detect any of the other notes.

As I said before, I think this would make a great casual, daytime fragrance, however it has enough class to be worn during the nightime. Like all Chanel perfumes, this one has great lasting power and a strong, definite scent.

Chance is a younger and more vibrant sister of the Chanel Sisters
sweet and a bit sassier then of the more
reserved iciness of Chanel no 5's and the Les Exclusives
series Opens in my opinion a sweet vanilla gourmand or
to be placed in the oriental vanilla category The interplay of
Pineapple and Vanilla is sort of a break
of the usual routine of cold Aldehydes and crisp green
note notes that is a trademark of a Chanel Perfume;
Chance is a like breath of fresh air A fragrance for a
Chic and independent young Woman who wants to
have fun without being childish The drydown turns
spicy with
pink pepper Lemon adds a zesty touch, Hyacinths
and Irises changes
Chance to a Metallic with a cloying factor
which can be Overwhelming
The finishing is sweet and woodish opens with
sweet patchouli lies
against patches of diluted musk Vetiver closes
Chance with nuances of dry Woods,

Chance is a Luminous beauty with a inner youth
and positivity that invites us in it's realm.
