About This Perfume
Think cool lemon-bergamot cologne with creamy sandalwood: that is Chanel Allure Homme Edition Blanche. It opens with black pepper and pink pepper, moves into lemon, bergamot and new Caledonian sandalwood and settles on tonka bean, white musk and amber. It leans masculine, though anyone can wear it.
This eau de toilette is best in spring and summer and is a daytime scent. A good pick for casual days. Released in 2008.
Wearers report that it lasts roughly a working morning or afternoon, and projects to about arm's length.
Is it right for you?
- Best for: anyone after something fresh and uplifting for casual days.
- Sample first if: citrus is new territory for you.
- Skip if: you dislike fresh fragrances.
Around $140.

Inside the Chanel picks
Coco Mademoiselle (2001) reads as bright citrus creams, lychee and jasmine powder, opening on grapefruit, orange and bergamot and drying down to patchouli, vetiver, white musk and bourbon vanilla. Bleu de Chanel (Cologne, 2010) is cool grapefruit, lemon and mint with smoky woods; its base holds incense, cedar, vetiver and sandalwood. Chanel No 5 Eau de Parfum (1986) is a powdery white-floral over soapy sandalwood, with aldehydes and ylang-ylang on top and sandalwood, oakmoss and vanilla underneath.
