Egoiste was not much better than I expected it to be or was it worse. With the exception of Pour Monsieur and Eau de Cologne, most Chanel scents for men have disappointed me thus far. Egoiste was no different although superior to Platinum Egoiste, which is a different story altogether. There is very little progression in Egoiste--it is a sweet fruity accord flanked by spices and some sandalwood. Not great at all.

Starts off slightly citurs fruity and goes down to a powerfull woody
and sweet cinnamon.
A masterpiece showing how a heavy and sweet fragrance
can still be very masculine and noble with so much character.
A perfect winter scent you should under no circumstances even consider
putting on in summer !

Elegant, proud, a bit narcisistic that is Egoiste! Sillage great, longveity unquestionable. If you're not an egoist, you might turn into one wearing this ;)

I absolutely love this. I appreciate something new with almost every wearing. I don't really care for vanilla frags that much but this one stands out to me. I will always have a bottle in my drobe and will be really upset when my vintage bottle runs empty.

One of the smoothest sandalwood scents I've encountered, with an almost buttery feel to the drydown. The elegantly composed Égoïste is yet another reason why Chanel is held in such high esteem.
