NEW FRAGRANCE! Chanel Chance Eau Tendre

This Spring, Chanel will be launching their newest flanker to their 2002's Chanel Chance fragrance making it the 3rd fragrance in the Chance collection joining Chance Eau FraƮche.


The fragrance itself was created by Chanel master perfumer Jacques Polge and features a range of floral and fruity notes. It is also an Eau de Toilette featuring the same flacon from the original Chance now with a sheer pink coloring to the juice.

On the initial smell of Eau Tendre, you are graced with the fruity scent of Grapefruit and Quince which give the fragrance a nice innocent and playful feeling.

At the heart of the fragrance is Jasmine and Iris Absolute along with Hyacinth flowers giving the scent a sweet floral and feminine body.

Lastly, the fragrance is warmed up with Cedarwood, Amber, and White Musk which dries the fragrance down to the elegance that Chance fragrances possess.

Chanel Chance Eau Tendre is available at Nordstrom Department store exclusively until April 2010 and is available in two sizes: 1.7 oz / 50mL for $65 , 3.4oz / 100 mL for $90.

I had the pleasure of smelling the fragrance and I really liked it....but I didn't love it. I think it definitely will appeal to the younger Chanel girl and be a great addition their personal collection as it the perfect time to launch the fragrance for the spring and summer season.

One thing that I felt is that Eau Tendre smells similar to Marc Jacobs's Daisy fragrance as it possesses that sweet, light, fruity scent but it does differentiate itself due to the staying power and slight more fresh smell.

Tell me what you think....!
