Chance Eau Tendre Eau de Parfum

After an early lunch about a week ago I was out doing some Christmas returns and saw this new juice sitting out on the counter at my local Belks. I had not applied perfume that morning knowing I was headed to the department stores so Tendre eau de Parfum ended up my scent of the afternoon. It was in the mid eighties that afternoon here in Florida so I do not know how this will perform in the colder weather as of yet. Upon first spritz it pleasantly reminded me of something I already had but I could not put my finger on it. I decided not to over analyze and just enjoy this girly baby. I then went about my business. Anyway, I could smell both the robust Grapefruit and sweet tropical smelling Quince right away and then within minutes a jammy Rose was quite pronounced and became the star of this composition. The Jasmine came in after the Citrus abated a little bit adding some creaminess. The Musk is not all that heavy and is most noticeable on the dry down along with the floral notes making this gorgeously smooth. The Sillage was huge at first and then it became moderate. This is not a sillage bomb but that is okay because I could smell myself all afternoon. I had a younger hostess at the restaurant I went to for dinner mention how "pretty" I smelled. My husband joined me and as he hugged me he commented that he loved the way I smelled as well. When I told him it was the newest from Chanel he just smiled and said, "Chanel knows how to do it right!" He knew I was going to get this new fragrance if I had not already. I could smell Chanel Chance Tendre eau de Parfum until I bathed upon coming home from shopping and dinner at around eight. It had lasted about eight hours. This new baby was to be acquired. Tendre eau de Parfum is a beautiful pick me up perfume. As for now my experience says it will be best for milder mornings and warmer days. If you are looking for a new Spring or Summer fragrance look no further. This one is going to shine then for sure. I highly recommend. Just go lightly in hundred degree weather. Oh I figured out it reminds me of Dior's Addict to Life minus the Lily of the Valley which is one of my favorite Summer Rose fragrances but it has become hard to find and quite expensive. I am headed out to pick up my bottle of this new juice, and the big one, today. Another review will follow if I find it suitable for cold weather and also will report how it performs then as we Floridians are in for a cold spell (lows in the 40's) this week. Have a great one my fellow Fragranticans! ADDENDUM: Well in the colder weather Tendre EDP is different. It is kind of hard to explain. I did not get the same vibe. I figured it had to be me because my dry skin does not like cold weather. I applied some unscented goat milk moisturizer and reapplied Tendre EDP. Eureka! That was the answer. The fragrance blossomed again in all its Rosy glory. I really think this is better in mild to warm weather. If you do wear it in colder weather moisturize heavily if you tend to have dry skin. I am going to look on Chanel.com for the body lotion. Still a huge love for me!

Eau Tendre is soft, pink, girly, fresh, clean and cool. The name and colour of the juice fit this scent perfectly. On my skin, this opens up with a bright, juicy grapefruit and the rose quickly follows. I think this is the part that some people below dislike or think smells like "cleaner". For me, it gives more the impression of smelling a dewy flower up close. I even get the greenness of the stem, as well as a metallic note. If I were to paint a picture, I'd say it's like drinking pure grapefruit juice (no sugar) in a metal cup, while sitting next to a vase of freshly-picked, dewy roses. The opening is where this scent really projects, and gives the impression of a classy, elegant "Chanel girl". As you wear this over the next few hours, that projection dies off and this becomes a skin scent with a sheer aura and a personal bubble. At the same time, the notes themselves transition into something softer. Gone is the grapefruit, the green rose, the metallic edge. The drydown shifts into a clean, cold shampoo-like freshness which also has a soft silkiness to it. I used to have a rose silk finishing powder for my face, and this gives me that same vibe - a very finely milled powder that is silky and cold to the touch, with just a hint of pinkness. Like the name, it is such a tender and delicate scent. If you think that bold, challenging "unique" scents are the height of perfumery, then you won't like this. This isn't "niche" (whatever that means anymore) and it's not trying to be. This perfume is a celebration of softness. It's not for the woman who's always the loudest and most outspoken person in the room. It's aimed at women and girls who identify as feminine, gentle, soft and likeable. And as much as those traits are seen negatively in a social media-obsessed society where everyone is fighting to be seen and heard (hence the obsession with "niche", "beast mode" and "man killer" scents)... Chance Eau Tendre reminds us that the soft, gentle one in the group, the one who everyone likes and trusts, who listens rather than speaks, is actually far more powerful than we give them credit for. This is the type of scent that sinks into your personage and becomes part of you. It doesn't smell like perfume, it just smells like a soft, pretty girl. Perfect for a signature, this is the kind of scent that people may never comment on because it doesn't register as perfume, but without a doubt they inhale just a little deeper when you're around because you always smell good. The projection may be soft, but make no mistake, this is an extremely long-lasting perfume. When I wear this, I smell it all day and all night. I also smell it on my clothes the next day. Overall, I really enjoy this scent. It's such a lovely, cooling scent for warmer weather. Definitely full bottle-worthy, as this is the ultimate easy reach that works in the office, on casual days at the shops or the cafe, on a date, just lazing at home... almost any scenario I can think of. This is a love for me 💖🍋🌹✨️

I’ve had this since it came out and I’ve never reviewed it, despite it being one of my favorites. First I’d like to say, ignore the reviews claiming it’s boring, generic, and suited for a teenager. I’m the mother of a teenager and we both enjoy this. Besides, I don’t think putting an age on a perfume makes sense. Seasons? Ok, I get it. Genders? Maybe, because it helps give me a feeling of what notes are going to be prominent, but saying that a perfume is “only” suited for teens or women over 50...blah. I wore Angel and Samsara in my 20’s and I’m still wearing this as I approach 40. I would like to understand what people even mean when they call this generic and boring. If it’s so generic, why does anyone have yet to make an accurate comparison? That being said, I would also ignore the “reminds me of” section. This is a very high quality perfume and it’s not comparable to Daisy. It’s more complex, has better longevity, it’s more balanced, and it just flat-out doesn’t smell anything like it. Generic to me would be the many fruitchoulis, gourmands, white floral vanillas, and perfumes trying to smell like BR540. Just saying. I’m sorry, but I’ve owned Daisy and they’re not similar to my nose. The “reminds me of” section on this site has been so off on a lot of scents lately. Did Covid ruin people’s sense of smell? The votes have been confusing on a lot of perfumes over the past few years, it’s not just this one. Anyway, this is just such an easy reach, it smells zesty and juicy in the summer, and light and airy in the colder weather. The grapefruit in this is quite pronounced and I enjoy that aspect of it. It’s not as citrusy as you’d think, it’s got a fizzy quality that mixes so beautifully with the rose. It’s perfectly balanced imho. It’s very versatile and suitable for ALL ages, and better yet, for all seasons and situations!

see, i say that i don't like florals and then fall for this one. if any company were to convince me it would be Chanel. i admit my curiosity for this one was based on the fact that almost everyone seems to agree that as far as safe fragrances go for this brand this is the youngest, freshest take in comparison to powerhouses like #5 or Coco Noir. additionally, a few reviewers have compared this to Vince Camuto's Fiori that i adore with the kind of senselessness that only nostalgia could explain considering its generally poor performance. theyre similar in the way that cousins are with eau Tendre being the more audacious of the two. it's extremely fresh and present without being too sharp from the quince. and i was surprised to see that rose was a component of this because i've always detested rose in fragrance notes, i don't get the hype or appreciation for roses but in time i hope to understand. this is definitely signature scent worthy and timeless. i'd be unsurprised to smell this in say, an office setting on a working professional. i hope to wear this more in late spring-early summer because in my mind that's when the fragrance will shine. my only hope is that this doesn't sour on my skin like some reviewers have pointed out. considering that "so safe, it's practically boring" was what intrigued me to this fragrance i'd advise against people expecting to be wowed because of the brand name attached to the bottle. to me, this in no way a knock-your-socks-off explosive scent experience but it is an understated and classy fragrance. worth the price point? can't say (esp. considering i was gifted this bottle and it was nowhere near the tippy top of my to-buy list to begin with)

Second best Chanel in my opinion. A glorious fragrance, pure femininity! Unlike other Chanel perfumes, this version of Chance Eau Tendre EDP has a very particular fruit heavily used in the composition and rarely uses in other perfumes or rarely used by other brands. The quince note! I personally adore this fruit and I have specifically bought some fragrances, not just this one, because they have a pronounced quince note. It might not be for everyone, I am aware that’s not the most popular note in perfumes but I love it! In Chance Eau Tendre EDP the quince is mixed with a tart, zesty grapefruit note, some florals and a base of white, clean and fluffy musk. Everything but the quince suggests a very basic, done million times before scent. But quince gives the scent a very different feel, citrusy but sweet, somewhere between the scent of a green apple or a pear, but honeyed, light and more transparent, with more citrusy facets, but without the usual sharpness of a lime or lemon. A unique twist. Quince is the sprinkle of magic dust that’s creating a never smelled before scent...Happy and mood boosting smell, to brighten up the gloomy days. This is an atemporal perfume, light and airy but with some substance, all year round scent, suitable for all ages in my opinion. Might not be my first choice during winter and fall but I worn it several times and it did well even during colder days. It is a very beautiful scent but with a distinctive smell, that might not be the most appealing for some, but I absolutely adore it. Performs on par with other Chanel scents, it’s quite long lasting but more moderate when it comes to sillage.

After years of wearing the EDT, I finally went and purchased this on Friday! As a fan of all of the Chanel Chance fragrances, I think this one is shaping up to be my favorite :) So, to compare this to the EDT, the biggest difference I’d say is the rose note. It still has that same feminine, fresh and luxurious smell, but with a softer dry down. After a few hours of wear, this perfume morphs into a creamier, less sweet scent. I’m really enjoying it, and I think it’ll be a great perfume for Spring, Summer and possibly Fall. Staying power: It isn’t as much as I’d thought it’d be, but it isn’t terrible either. I think around 5-6 hours is where it lands. It’s definitely expensive for that longevity, but the smell is just so perfect! On clothes, I’m finding it stays much longer. Sillage: The sillage for this is moderate. It’s not going to engulf a room, but it’s also not a scent you have to press your nose to to smell. I think it’s just right for an everyday perfume! How I’m wearing it: I’m not going to lie... Right after buying it, I went home and just sprayed away! For the night, I had a wonderful Eau Tendre bubble that was just lovely :) The next day after a shower, I went a bit overboard again and did about ~10 sprays on my skin. This was a bit much for daily wear, so today I toned it down to about 7 and I found that perfect. I’m excited to wear this one out, and it’ll probably end up being my signature scent! This one is definitely worth going and smelling.

This perfume was on my wishlist for years. Each time I came to buy it, another perfume caught my attention, so I delayed purchasing this everytime. But then I decided that I have to go and buy it without looking to other perfumes! I was between choosing EDP or EDT. The EDT version was softer, EDP had sharper opening of musc which I didn’t like much but because I know that the sharpness smoothes down after some minutes, so I chose the EDP version, to enjoy the scent for longer hours! I purchased 150ml bottle. The interesting thing was that when I tried the tester at the shop, I could feel the scent from my wrist the whole day! But the bottle which I opened at home, the scent stays only one hour!!!! After an hour I can barely feel anything. So I keep spraying and spraying, but nothing! The scent doesn’t stay not on my skin, not on my clothes. There is just nothing! I’ve checked the code to see if it’s the original or maybe fake? Everything shows it’s the original. Don’t tell me that maybe my nose goes blind! I asked people around me to check, if they feel anything, but nobody feels the perfume!!! I’m so disappointed! The bath and body mists stay with me hours, but my favorite perfume is just nothing! My mom had this perfume, and when she was walking, she was carrying the beautiful tender scent around her for hours. But what I’ve got is the watered down version. Can’t even call it body mist, let alone EDP!!!

before I got back into being perfume lover/collector again... I’ve been sniffing and asking for a spray on my arm of this every time I’ll have the chance of passing by Chanel (and If i knoe the sales people barely remembers me)...I like it. but I’ve kept my collection to just 4-6perfumes for years... thinking it’s not practical to own too much, especially that I don’t go out too a lot, (using them at home sometimes) Until my young girl got it for me as a birthday present from her part time job salary...coz she said she knows I wouldn’t get for myself even if I liked it, which made it more special. After that, I started collecting again, now I’ve grown my collection to 30+bottles in 2yrs. still controlling myself though. I guess this Chanel perfume will be the one that I wouldn’t wanna lose in my collection. If I’d have just one from the brand, this is it. fresh, elegant and all year round usable... it’s simple but luxuriously smelling. though I think the price tag doesn’t suit “that” simplicity, You can find a lot of nicer or better ones with its price range. oh well, it’s “Chanel”.and I believe no one will hate or dislike this eau tendre... so well loved that it’s all over and so commonly used.

this is a beautiful fragrance. it's lovely and light, and it kind of dances around you rather than sits heavily on skin. the vibe is a mild spring day with blue skies and fluffy clouds, sitting in a garden with blooming flowers, homemade lemonade in a pitcher, pretty girls in floaty sundresses. mary jane shoes, blue and white floral patterned fabric, white frilly socks. i don't really get the notes at all. to me, this smells like a feminine musk, pretty pink florals and green apple. i don't like jasmine and i don't like rose, i've certainly never smelled a rose note like this perfume. think sweet peas, pink lilacs, peony. i'm not much of a citrus girlie but it's so sweet here, not juicy or wet (think kayali eden line), not too green, just refreshing. it's a very light perfume, some people dislike when fragrances don't project much but the vibe of eau tendre isn't loud so why should the perfume be? it's in the name, this is a very tender scent. i'm currently working my way through my samples and will definitely think about getting a full version of this! it's the perfect time of year for it.

Gosh WHY is this the best fresh floral of all time? I absolutely adore this fragrance, especially in the EDP, it is bright and uplifting, I love the citrus rose and cottony musk drytown, it smells great in any season and for any occasion, it's so cheerful it practically enhances my mood when I'm wearing it, I genuinely have an addiction to this fragrance. My 50 ml bottle is on the down side and I only bought this like 2 years ago ... with the size of my shelf that is impressive usage. I think that this is now one of my most used fragrances and mos def in my top 20. I think I'll have to get the 150 ml bottle next. For anyone that says this doesn't last, I'd just like to mention that this fragrance is LOADED with white musks which one can easily go nose blind too. I don't need to apply more than about 4 sprays at a time for this to last over 12 hours on me. I also try not to inhale until the perfume physically dries on my skin so I don't saturate my nose begin with.

I really like this perfume. Its quite sophisticated but still modern. I imagine a 30 something girl wearing this w/ a cashmere sweater and pearls. I get a soft romantic rose and other florals but no distinct jasmine. If you compare this to the EDT, the EDT is more citrusy with a bolder/brighter opening. The EDP goes into middle notes quicker and you get a much more powdery scent. And less of a fruity musky scent. Personally I think this is a signature scent and can be worn in all 4 seasons day or evening. I would love to wear this if I could, but I have made a decision not to buy any new bottles of department store fragrances and support cleaner more natural & cruelty free perfume and cosmetic brands because I started getting migraines from regular perfumes. BTW.. before above, I had bought the EDT maybe 3 yrs ago now. Bottle 60% gone. I wont throw it out i love to smell it now and again, its still gorgeous.

This is oh so pretty, feminine and bright. It's the epitome of soft fruity floral. If you looked up fruity floral in the dictionary, it would be a picture of CET. It's definitely something that once upon a time, it may have been something I would consider for a signature scent. Office appropriate and overall a crowd pleaser. I would definitely add this to my collection if I didn't already have so many other fruity florals. At this point in my collection, I don't think it's something that fills a void and I would need to find it at a really great price to purchase. Not that I find any of my bottle dupes or anything, but they are all generic enough to make do until I finish them off first. Between my Daisy flankers, Tocca collection, Vince Camuto flankers, line up of Chloe's, J'Adore, Quatres, and various Elizabeth Arden and Estee Lauders, I am good for now.

I love this one! There’s nothing super groundbreaking about Chance Eau Tendre but I do think it’s quite special. I always wear this one when I don’t really feel like wearing perfume but still want to smell nice and it surprises me every time. It’s such a fresh pretty citrusy sparkling floral! I feel like the rose and Jasmine are quite balanced as I can’t pick either out but the grapefruit and quince dominate it in the opening that is very bright and pretty! The musk in this is also a very clean musk that I think brings a creaminess factor which I think is what makes this so special! It’s very hard to be sad or unhappy wearing this. If you want a fresh and very pleasant fragrance that people around you will also like, this is it! This is also perfect for gifting to absolutely any age group. I feel like everyone should have it in their wardrobe

I love this version of Eau tendre! Its so feminine and delicate, but with great lasting power and sillage. A friend of mine that works at Chanel mentioned that this one has notes of Civete and Patchouli at the base notes, hence, the animalic smell some people smell in this version. I can smell the Civete note in the nosel but in my skin it doesn't last - eau tendre EDP remains very sweet for me, which I love - rose absolute (a sweet fruity sort of smell), quince, musk. That's what comes up the most for me! You can use this perfume for any occasion. I had people stopping me all the time to ask what I was wearing. I finished a 150ml bottle in 6 months because I could not stop wearing this, so beware, it is quite addictive. Eau tendre duo, EDT and EDP are winners. Classy, sensual in its own perfect way, feminine, addictive.

One of the most beautiful perfumes I own. So lovely, feminine, elegant and soft. I like this more than the EDT. They are similar and both are floral fresh but the EDP is more rounder, creamier, more grown up and put together. I'm 37 and the EDT feels a bit too young and too much one in a dozen for me. The EDP gives it more dept and adds something special to it. The rose is well done and delicate, it does not hit you in the face. The dry down of the EDT is a bit sharp while the EDP is softer in the dry own. In my opinion this is the best floral fresh perfume out there. The EDP lasts longer on me than the EDT but don't expect something beast mode. 4 hours max. Lasts longer on clothing. It does give me the most beautiful whiffs throughout the day. Office friendly and perfect for spring and summer season.

Jacques Polge is a genius in my opinion for coming up with so many masterpieces. This is truely marvelous how such a gifted person was given in life the oportunity to express his G-d given extreme creativity and execution capability in an almost obscure field as parfumery, where the sense of smell is the least developed in humans and gets the least amount of attention by most of us.. almost as if by default, it is only to avoid bad smells and the positive sensory experience is enjoyed to its full extent by a small number of fragheads. I truely enjoy experiencing great masterpieces such as the EDP created by his son also, and looking forward to his new creations. Luckly Chanel is a private well funded company that can enable him to express to the fullest his talent.

I adored Chanel Chance Eau Tendre edp the first time I smelled it, and as I've had it and worn it frequently over a year the love I initially felt hasn't waned one iota. This is one of the easiest reaches in my sizable collection, and one that makes me feel instantly pretty and well put together as soon as I spray! It's a happy, juicy, youthful, slightly musky rose with a charming bit a fruitiness that performs decently. I LOVED Marc Jacobs Daisy, and smell the resemblance between these two, with Chance Eau Tendre being the slightly fancier, wealthier cousin of the two :-) I often wear this when the day ahead is daunting, and I need something comforting and crowd pleasing. I LOVE her!!!

honestly smells so fking pretty, i love both the edt and edp version, the rose and musk are so creamy and one of the best roses i have smelled in a fragrance. usually rose note ends up as headache for my own wears over 4h and especially when combined with too much vanilla / vanilic accords, but this one isnt like that. very clean and elegant and wearable rose. quince incoperates with it so well, smells like a princess. performance is mid, literally mid. not wack nor super. daisy isnt an accurate dupe of this. daisy and applejuice has a similar VIBE to this, but they are not exact substitues of the EDP eau tendre. because this has rose, they dont really come close to this. be careful

♡ Enchanting fragrance, I can’t get enough of it. This is my interpretation of a barbie, girly feminine scent. This is so fresh, seductive & alluring. I always get compliments on this beautiful scent. I love how long lasting this is for my own body. This would make a gorgeous statement perfume, perfect for those who want to smell lush , devine & ultra femme fatale. The lingering longevity is on point. Sillage is remarkable & the perfect blend of sultry & femininity. The simple yet elegant bottle is captivating & I adore the pink colored juice. I would highly recommend this ! Please try & test it with your own body chemistry. ♡

I live in a small town and have a hard time being able to even sample newer scents in the drugstore so my husband flies a lot for work and he walked past a Chanel store and decides to call me says I have 5 minutes to pick what I want. In a panic I say “chance eau tendre is supposed to be nice” and he smells it quick and says “yes I want it” buys it!! I was so excited to even smell it and man when I did, I was transported. It’s the most feminine soft but powerful scent I can see why men are weak to it. The rose is so jammy and sensual. Omg thank you husband for my first Chanel won’t be my last!!!
