Suddenly Madame Glamour

This was a fun science experiment. SCIENCE! I really wanted to know if a super cheap imitation would be... obvious. Based on reviews, and the amazing price, I chose this fragrance. Even if I HATED this, it would only put me out $15 dollars to throw it away. I had to order this on Amazon, and it took two months to arrive from overseas, before I could discover if this smells like the fabulous Chanel Coco Madamoselle... and boy... it is close enough! It is not exact. There is something under the fresh orange and pretty rose, maybe the vetiver, that smells a little off, but it is so slight, and I am sensitive to vetiver. I think it also has less patchouli. So slight. I will rock this fragrance. I have a few samples of Coco Madamoselle, so I think I would wear these together. A hint of the real stuff, followed by SMG. Golly... I cannot believe I got this for $15. And I cannot believe I don't hate it! It really does scratch that Coco Madamoselle itch. I personally prefer Gabrielle Essence and Coco Noir, over Coco Madamoselle, but for this price, I will learn to love it most.

Popped into lido yesterday and just fancied a new bottle of Madame Glamour .I have had many bottles of this before .Was extremely pleased to see it at 75ml (edp)for just under £5.00 .Nicely re- packaged I wear alot of the Chanel range .But having had a sample of the real Mademoiselle I actually prefer the Lidl copy .Its fresh and clean has beautiful orange blossom accords without being to orangery ( like Hugo Boss ). It is a fab fragrance for every day, I.would substitutes it for Co'co chanel edt for evenings. In a nutshell pretty & light for day wear . My 20 year is also fond of this for everyday , she will waft pass me and I say" humm that smells nice." I also at the same time grabbed in Lidl the Chalou Same size & price ....lovely pink box ....smells very much like Chole on immediate reaction......so will see ......As said in other reviews this ones all say Vegan so that's a nice thing to point out Happy buyer ......nice one Lidl /Win

It may not be the most long lasting fragrance but this is excellent and very high quality. Almost exactly like Coco Mademoiselle. To me it feels a slightly more fresh with zingier citrus notes and toned down patchouli. CM can be a lot to deal with sometimes, very in your face with the patchouli, almost to a point that it feels harsh. This is softer and gentler. Pretty similar to Miss Dior 2012 as well. The notes in this are excellent. It doesn't smell synthetic or cheap like many impression perfumes do. It's the same citrus-y powdery patchouli floral goodness as CM. I think it'll last just fine when sprayed on clothes/in hair. I know some people don't like to do that but I'm fine with it lol. I'm a designer fragrance lover and almost never use impressions but this and La Rive Fleur de Femme (Poison Girl dupe) have won my heart.

This is such fun, all those reviews. Pros love it, cons hate its synthetic smell. Wake up please, even the expensive houses use synthetic ingredients today. How else can they make the exact same perfume every time again (It is not as if they sell just a couple of bottles of coco mad). Having said this, I am (obviously) a fan. In my opinion Coco mademoiselle is nice, and such a crowdpleaser that it doesn't belong in a Chanel-bottle. I expect more daring decisions there. But it is nice, and so is Madame Glamour. It does its job: it makes me feel happy and feminine :-). And that for a tiny price-tag, so I can spend the real money on a perfume that stands out in the crowd.

I spotted this in store today at LIDL. I haven't smelt coco mademoiselle before not the modern day version, only the vintage one that belonged to my mum. I really like it and it reminds me of Givenchy Dahlia Noir which has been discontinued for years now and I have been trying to find a dupe for it, with perfume parlour's being the closest one. The Johnsons baby note that is in it is what attracts me to it. This perfume is so nice, and makes me want to go into store and test out the modern coco mademoiselle.
