About This Perfume
Misia Eau de Parfum by Chanel is a Oriental Floral fragrance for women. Misia Eau de Parfum was launched in 2016. The nose behind this fragrance is Olivier Polge. Top notes are Aldehydes and Litchi; middle notes are Raspberry, Turkish Rose, Grasse Rose and Peach; base notes are Violet, Powdery Notes, Orris Root, Leather, Vanilla, Tonka Bean and Benzoin. Misia Eau de Parfum, "the spirit of art," is a fragrance inspired by the friendship between Gabrielle Chanel and Misia Sert. Olivier Polge created it as a powdery makeup scent that evokes the air of a theater backstage, made of May rose, violet, orris root, benzoin, tonka bean, and leather. At the end of September 2016, Chanel launched the Eau de Parfum versions of its prestigious Les Exclusifs de Chanel perfume line. The new concentration will gradually completely replace the existing Eau de Toilette editions. The fragrances are available as a 75 ml and a 200 ml Eau de Parfum.

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.

FAQ
Common questions.
From community discussion. Scendira reads what people say about a perfume on forums, social groups and video platforms, then turns it into scores for longevity, projection and blind-buy safety. Notes and accords come from public catalogue data. We say nothing when there is too little evidence to judge.
A perfume judged relatively approachable without trying it first. The Blind Buy Safety score combines community ratings and first-wear reports with catalogue data, not marketing. Skin chemistry still varies, so sample first when you can.
No. Scendira is not affiliated with any fragrance house and does not take paid reviews. No brand can pay to rank higher or be recommended by Dira. Buy links are affiliate links: we may earn a small commission, and you pay the same price.
