Strengths: Eternal feminine tones with really long lasting power

Weaknesses: Nothing

Coco from Chanel is a timeless fragrance and the fact that it hold prominent place in retail counters after more than 2 decades is proof of its high quality. Coco is a must have for perfume lovers and comes bottled in one of the simplest bottles available. Yet another symbol which showcases that the good things in life need not be in highly ornate bottles. The perfume’s unique combination sounds really simple but it is the proportion which makes a world of difference.

Though mostly floral, Coco emits a strong tone of aldehydes which is unique to Chanel perfumes. You can find no fault with Coco as it comes designed to give you some excellent feelings all throughout the day. Though not very mellow, Coco tends to mould itself to the body tones of the wearer and can at some occasions evolve into a very unique fragrance. Coco is one of the best selling perfumes from Chanel and it is easy to understand why.

Don’t expect the Coco to be very reasonably priced though. I have learnt that good fragrances are usually the most expensive ones as well (though this cannot be considered as an universal rule since some very expensive fragrances are pretty bad). I don’t mind the price tag as I feel that when I buy Coco, I am buying into a piece of fashion legacy from the house of Chanel. There are many people who use Coco as a signature fragrance and many are likely to join the bandwagon soon. That in itself is proof of the Coco’s longevity...needless to say, I love every moment I spend with Coco surrounding me and making my day so special.
