Coco Mademoiselle Intense

Coco Mademoiselle Intense: It's called a cult classic because it has gained a loyal following over the years for its unique and captivating scent. It is a staple in almost every fragrance lover's collection. This intense version was on my wishlist for a long time. I used a few bottles of the sample before investing on the full bottle. Everytime I used to spray this, I used to tell myself yes, it is truly worthy of all the praises it gets. I personally love the Intense version for its deeper and more sensual vibe. The richness and longevity of the Intense version really makes it stand out. It's elegant and sophisticated and also seductive and Romantic. The citrusy opening in Coco Mademoiselle Intense is like a burst of freshness that awakens your senses. It's bright, zesty, and invigorating, setting the stage for the rest of the fragrance experience. The citrus notes add a lively and energetic touch to the overall scent profile, making it perfect for a refreshing and uplifting start. The heart of Coco Mademoiselle Intense is the floral notes like jasmine and rose bloom, which add a romantic and elegant touch to the fragrance. These florals blend beautifully with the citrusy top notes, creating a harmonious and captivating bouquet that lingers on your skin. The vanilla and tonka bean on the base adds a warm and sweet depth to the fragrance, enhancing its richness and creating a luxurious and inviting scent experience. The patchouli and tonka bean notes give the fragrance depth and richness, leaving a lasting impression that is both sophisticated and alluring. All the notes blend beautifully to create a captivating and unforgettable aroma. Overall, Coco Mademoiselle Intense is the more deeper and more concentrated version of the original Coco Mademoiselle EDP DNA with a stronger presence of Patchouli, Tonka Bean and Vanilla notes. It's a really long lasting fragrance. On skin it lasts upto 8-10 hours. On clothes it keeps lingering all day long. The fragrance creates a beautiful Scent bubble around you that leaves a lovely trail as you move, subtly captivating those around you. Undoubtedly, Coco Mademoiselle Intense is a fragrance worthy to be a signature scent. It can truly become your go-to, making you feel confident and captivating every time you wear it. It's a timeless Classic beauty ❤️ #sotn #review

Initial spray impressions: Citric opening not as bright and screechy as Coco Mad Edp. Earthy but medium weight warm patchouli surfaces (not like angel patch at all) floral rose is dominant then undercurrent of jasmine. Heavier than the current incarnation of coco mad but not as heavy as a vintage. Richer in tone than coco mad. Give it about 15 min to harmonize from first spray.There seems more notes going on than the listed copy. Its blending is hallmark Chanel. I dont feel its that close to the first formula Coco Mad because its brightness and substantial fruity presence is not here in the Intense. This is more Patchouli and mild vanilla/tonka with rose in my wearing as the dominant features.A light peach note stirs reminiscent of COCO. Sillage medium to large. This envelops you in a cloud. Tonka, vanilla, labdanum (what they are calling an amber) add more richness in the base and give a natural sweetness. The patchouli keeps it in check from going too sweet. Ill add at drydown. This could have been marketed as an exclusif. In summary: A basenote driven scent with patchouli, vanilla, tonka, labdanum, (minimal florals) creates a natural sweetness to the richer formulation. Note there isnt a wood presence like say..coromandel. up to 8 hours in length and still going.... Note: If you hate patchouli, do not get near this one. Thete is a minimal floral presence so guys that like sweet base note scents..give it a try. Doesnt lean feminine at all unless you count its sweetness from vanilla and tonka Chanel is back on track with this release.

First of all, I had to buy a bottle again before writing. It's been a while since I got my hands on this. When I tell you this feels nostalgic, it feels nostalgic!! Although many people said this smells like a rich grandma, some even associate this with a cat's pee, I find this perfume to be a beautiful scent. Spesifically saying this as when I have worn this everyday for the past two weeks, there is always a person who compliments the way I smell. The fragrance opens up with a burst of patchouli with a hint of citrus and I kind of smell something fruity (not sure what fruit) and upon spraying it is HEAVY. Like, HEAVY. But the magic unfolds when it transitioned into a musky scent that leaves trails of scent when you walk into a room. My co-workers always notice whenever I wear this (in a positive way, I don't overspray LMAO). The musky, a little bit rosy and jasmine-ish linger for the longest of time on my skin and upon drying down the musky vanilla is the hero here. I crashed into my best friend's and after wearing it for a day he can still smell the scent on me. Point is, this scent really suits me and my natural body oil. Definitely keeping this. P.S. To everyone doubting to buy Chanel's fragrance (or any other fragrance) due to the reviews online, please note that perfumes smell really personal. The same scent could evoke different impression on different people. So, just try them out yourselves. What others hate might suit you best, surprisingly.

Coco Mademoislle is a true classic beauty. Coco Mademoiselle Intense is all of that, but next level! In my opinion, the best feminine Chanel creation. A masterpiece level of a perfume! Sophisticated, poised, strong, bright, energetic, vibrant, well rounded, complex, refined, luxurious. So how does Coco Mademoiselle Intense smells like? Like the best, smoothest, perfectly balanced, most delicious combination of sparkling citruses, mouthwatering fruits, best quality jasmine and rose oils, freshest, cleanest patchouli, highest quality vanilla, labdanum and tonka beans. I had a small bottle of the original Coco Mademoiselle but I invested in a big bottle of Intense because it’s a deeper, a richer, a warmer, more sensual version of the OG. It’s a really long lasting fragrance. Lasts well on skin and forever if sprayed on clothes. It’s the type of scent that creates a nice scent bubble around you and a good scent trail when you move. I think it’s one of the best designer perfumes currently sold taking in consideration the quality of the ingredients, the scent longevity, the complexity and compliment factor. This would be my first purchase out of all designer perfumes sold nowadays if I were to start my collection all over. It’s a signature worthy kind of scent. Yes, I love Chance Eau Tendre EDP as well, but that one lacks the charm and the uniqueness of Coco Mademoiselle Intense.

Absolutely stunning.. incredible!! The best of the Coco Chanel line, in my opinion! I own all four, and I'd rank them (to my preferences) as 1) Coco Mademoiselle Intense, 2) Coco Noir (only due to being more seasonal, I enjoy the scent profile just as well), 3) Coco Mademoiselle, and finally 4) the OG Coco. The intense version is just so much more... rich? It just feels so much deeper, and more complex, to my nose. I definitely agree that the original is lighter, perhaps would be a good option in hotter weather as personally I'd feel the intense would be out of place on a hot day. Other than that, I don't really reach for the OG Coco Mademoiselle over Coco Mademoiselle intense! Smells like a beautiful, sophisticated, seductive woman! I cannot imagine anyone disliking the way this smells! Intense is really the best way to describe what I get from Coco Mademoiselle Intense VS the original... It's a heavier fragrance, more potent and better longevity... richer, and more complex as I stated above... I truly think you cannot go wrong! This fragrance is absolutely captivating... would make a man fall in love!

The drydown of Coco Mademoiselle Intense reminds me so much of the discontinued Coco Mademoiselle Body Powder- which I absolutely loved/adored. Whenever I wear this, I receive many compliments; it never fails. I like to layer the Coco Mad. body oil and body cream, topped off with a few spritzes of Coco Mad Intense. The trail is beautiful and it makes me feel empowered and confident. This is a timeless, full-bodied fragrance which is always appropriate and an easy reach to elevate whatever you are about to do from work to a formal event. People may say: "this fragrance is overly popular", etc. but in my experience, I have only ever encountered 3 or 4 other people who were wearing any form of Coco Mademoiselle in my 15 plus years of wearing Coco Mad and ZERO people that wear the intense since I started wearing it in 2019. Also, When I worked for Chanel, the Eau Tendre was far more popular than Coco Mad. during the time I worked there. I believe the Coco Mad line is clean, fresh, memorable, and absolutely beautiful. There is nothing else quite like it, and I always come back to it.

For better or for worse, I do NOT get patchouli here. This is a very clean, musky soapy rose with lots of citrus in the opening to me. This is SO incredibly classy. Probably one of my absolute favorite Chanel’s. This is a young woman’s scent — but not childish at all. If No. 5 is the matriarch, Gabrielle essence is the aunt, and chance eau tendre is the younger sister, CM is the cool, stylish older sister... the one who graduated university a few years ago, and has gotten a couple of promotions in her career. She may have a child or two, but still fairly young. I couldn’t see this offending anyone... it is quite perfume-y and can smell slightly “department store”, but it smells GOOD. Something about this is also very nostalgic and familiar to me, like a warm, fresh floral hug. If I was in the market for a new Chanel perfume, this would be it. Love it. I received this sample from Sephora and it stated that it was the intense version, however on the tester sample it does not specify, but I don’t believe it to be the original. I will have to go to a counter to see for myself.

This is the fragrance that ignited my love for perfume and that started my collection; Sweet, fruity, flowery, patchouli-loaded, woody and so warm, without the sharp edges of the og, and vanilla dominant on my skin... This scent gets me the most compliments (men and women) out of the 100+ perfumes I already own (or used to own but have decluttered), she is a forever kind of fragrance, ready to project and tackle any season, any occasion, and any obstacle that comes across my way. Sadly, I don't reach for her very often anymore, as I have so many other scents, but when I do, I know I'm in for a magical day, because people are drawn to me, and they always comment on how beautiful she smells, so I save her for day outings/events in the Spring and Summer (just not in intense heat). To those who find her sharp, unoriginal, or even dated, I'm guessing you're either super young, nose-blind, body chemistry issues, or not a fan of patchouli, in which case I feel sorry that you cannot enjoy this as much as I do, because for me, she is a forever love and I will ALWAYS have a bottle.

Beautiful classic. Chanel perfume magic. What more can be said about it? I wish more fragrances would lean towards this type of scent instead of the headache-inducing, plastic floral sweet bombs that every girl is wearing. This is not necessarily mature or even young; anyone can wear it. I'd describe it as "balanced femininity" - if that even makes sense. It's just the right amount of seductive and elegant. I love the OG, and if you can afford it, you should get both. They both have that same elegance and "suggestive" beauty to it. However, the original is a lot more versatile and doesn't fill the room as much. If you want to fill the room all the time, go for the EDP, but this one would be more occasional for attention-grabbing. Both grab attention, but consider what setting you want to wear it in. Despite it's popularity.. It isn't as common as you might think, probably because of the price tag, however, it's so recognizable in the air. Every time I smell it in the air it's so welcoming. Any woman who wears this is just a delight to be around!! Legendary scent.

I find all Mademoiselles very similar, with just softly pronounced nuances that differ. With EDT being the most citrusy+woody, Privee most fruity and least patchouli, EDP also quite fruity, but more patchouli, Parfum most woody, Intense has most voluptious, cold weather suitable sweetness, almost caramel like (if you want true caramel, try Diamant by Fragonard, it's perfection). Vanilla is always felt in Intense version, giving it that cosy sweetness. This version opens with a soft, sweet zest of orange+rose, very soon gains amber and patchouli qualities. Patchouli has that usual sparkle, noticeable in a lot of Chanel creations. As mentioned, very similar to the original. Mademoiselle is a scent I can't get enough of. Such a classic already. It seemed already overdone at some point, but I can see it making a comeback, when many are getting tired of huge rotation and niche craze. It needs to be tested on skin. On a blotter I get a very fruity-sweet Mademoiselle, but on my skin it's just gorgeous, caramelized, ambery patchouli with an orange peel zest.

I've never been a Mademoiselle fan. I like Coco Mademoiselle, but that's it - I find it really pleasant, very well blended and I appreciate the legend Mademoiselle has become. But there's always been something in classic version of CM, that has irritated me. Something too sharp and too masculine. Because all of that, I wasn't actually exited, when this intense version of Mademoiselle was released. Now I know, that I should be very exited, because it turns out, that it was love at first sight (or actually I should say - at first sniff). Coco Mademoiselle Intense is still Coco Mademoiselle, but without this irritating part. It's nothing, but feminine - finally I can't smell anything masculine or too sharp. It is very smooth, warm and elegant. More tonka bean and a pinch of labdanum, which is actually one of my favourite notes ever, make this scent super sophisticated and more cozy. It seems that I finally found my Mademoiselle. Tonka-patchouli heaven. And by the way, it lasts FOREVER on my skin. Just like the Coco EDP does. Love it.

I always felt the original Coco Mademoiselle, as iconic as she is, was too prim and proper for my tastes. It is my best friend's signature, and so suitable for her; the sophisticated, modern feminine. Organized, socialite. In my imagination, it's for women who tie silk scarves around their neck and prefer pearls over diamonds. Clean and manicured doesn't work well for me, and isn't what I go for in the world of perfumes. Enter the intense version of this... I want this badly. It has the depth that I'm looking for, and I would not feel like an imposter wearing this one. This version adds mystery. It is absolutely the DNA of the original icon, with a warmer, deeper, and somewhat rugged peppery base. By peppery, I mean prickly patchouli, not literal pepper - although it translates that way. This is a 10/10 in longevity. I could smell it on my skin the next day, and projection is heavy. One spray will do to make an impact. I am so glad I tested this!

I've only tested it once so far, but I'm genuinely shocked how much I like this. I'm even MORE shocked that my mum does too! She's notoriously picky about perfumes and we BOTH have a pre-conceived hatred for Chanel thanks to the ubiquitous No.5, so when I asked her to sniff my wrist we were both :shockedpikachuface: together. This is definitely "mature", and for anyone under 40 this is probably not a suitable every day scent, if you care about that sort kind of thing. This is very fancy; not intense exactly, but CCMD certainly has a big personality - I would reserve it for fancy date nights, weddings, etc. I have a 'wear what I like, when I like' type of attitude though, and the idea of this being "too mature" for my age doesn't bother me in the slightest so if I decide I like this enough to buy the bottle... RIP to everyone in my life, hope you enjoy a healthy dose of fruitchouli!

after smelling it on my friend years back, i fell in love with that patchouli note. it can be overpowering so careful with that, but does last all day. my boyfriend calls it my "woman" scent lol. definitely alluring, overall very balanced and i believe the listed notes ring true. BEAUTIFUL scent, if you like the darkness of the OG, i think this would be safe as a blind buy. it's heavy without being overpowering and lingers a lot. good longevity wise and can smell it from a mile away. lasts FOREVER on clothes, even if i'm not wearing it my boyfriend can tell it was sprayed on my shirt even after a couple of days have gone by. i'm a cutesy girl and less so "sexy" so i think this scent doesn't quite match the face when i wear it, so it's strictly used for night for me personally. can be used during the day, wouldn't recommend for office wear however. definitely a mature scent.

Opens exactly the same as the regular Coco Mademoiselle: citruses that are at once bright and deep and dark. There's a touch of Chanel's signature powder but it is reigned in quite a bit. It's actually easy to miss the powder in the opening unless you pay attention. You can't really distinguish one note from another because everything is just so beautifully blended together. This is a beautiful, elegant, timeless feminine scent that every woman needs in their collection. It's a genuine masterpiece. > Becomes a dusty rose with some indolic jasmine 1 hr 20 mins in. > 3 hrs in it has contracted into a skin scent. > 4hr 30 mins. I can't seem to detect it on my skin anymore. > 4hr 50 mins in. It's gone. IDK if my skin was just too acidic when I tested this but longevity seem disappointing. I guess that's the one negative I have to say about this.

This beauty was my signature fragrance for a few years, until I realized I am an olfactory empath and I delight in variety. So I abandoned my half used bottle and went on discovering. Earlier this year, I developed a short-lived, intense crush on a woman, who wore a perfume very similar to CMI. When I asked her if she was indeed wearing Chanel, she said: “Yes, but it has been made for me, it’s my scent”. Now that I’m writing this, I believe that my desire was ignited the moment I smelled the CMI DNA. I kept going back to the old juice looking for the beautiful woman, but I was actually falling again for the glamour of this perfume, for the moment that depth and brightness, the earth and the air coalesce and instigate a joyful euphoria similar to falling in love. I purchased a full bottle yesterday and I am never going to part with it again.

First I had tried the original Mademoiselle on a blotter and got a sharp patchouli that threw me for a loop, and was like "nah I don't think so" and thought it was crazy that people raved about it so much... then I went back and decided to try it on my skin, and fell in love. And then I tried the intense version and liked it even more with the vanilla and tonka. And then I stepped outside in the crisp freezing cold air and when the breeze hit me, this perfume had me mesmerized. The crisp patchouli with the warm base notes make this the perfect winter perfume. It's feminine, sparkling, and so sophisticated. I bought immediately and wear almost daily, especially when I'm outside because it brings me joy. Lesson that I learned: don't knock Chanel perfumes until you try them on the skin!

This is a gorgeous, classy scent that opens with a burst of citrus, plays with fruity and floral notes (so well blended, I honestly can't distinguish the individual notes), and dries down into something lush and sensual. On clothes, I can pick up the sweetness of the labdanum and the muskiness of the patchouli, maybe even a hint of vanilla. On my skin, it takes on an almost soapy quality that's not unpleasant. It smells luxurious, like you just stepped out of the shower at a five star spa. This scent is the best of Chanel and can be worn by a self-confident woman of any age. It's not sweet or obvious, definitely not gourmand, but it's bright and elegant and, dare I say, romantic.

I always get compliments from ladies when I wear this one. I really love how it interacts with my body’s chemistry, making it one of my all time favorite scents! It’s bossy, sophisticated, fresh and fun. I prefer to wear this during warm days because the citrus notes help keep my body cool; and it doesn’t smell overwhelming after a long, hot day. However, during very warm weather, I can’t spray it directly onto my skin otherwise it will smell too strong. With this, a little goes a very long way, especially on your skin. So please don’t spray more than once on your pulse points. Also, it can smell a bit strong during the first hour, but it settles down beautifully thereafter.

This is my keep only one ☝️ perfume. I love this deeply. It’s so classy and luxurious, and yet I cannot imagine any occasion this would not be appropriate for. This can be special bride perfume just as much as every day office wear. I wear it any time I want, special day or ordinary day. It brings me joy and it just satisfies all my cravings. Its sweet, spicy, bright and crisp and sparkly and deep and heavy and light as fresh air at the same time. It’s anything you want and need it to be, but its not a cheap girl. And the lasting power is a dream come true. The longer you wear it on your skin, the better it smells. This what i mean when I say 🤌 PERFUME 🤌
