Sanderling

I finally got this in the mail and I love it! I don't have too much experience with Coco Mademoiselle aside from that one time I tested it in the mall, but I had Miss Dior EDP, and I find that the drydown of this is similar to that of Miss Dior EDP. Sanderling scared me when I first sprayed it because it sort of smelled like some of my mom's older scents that have rose and carnation, but then it quickly changed (in 1-2mins) to a scent that smells like Miss Dior EDP. But it didn't distinctly smell like rose in the beginning, just dark and more mature, and this really isn't a rose scent aside from the first minute or two, so if you don't like rose, I'd still recommend. I don't know, patchouli is not in the notes, but in the middle of this scent's development cycle, I can distinctly smell Miss Dior's green, almost minty patchouli wafting up to my nostrils. However, when comparing this scent to Coco Mademoiselle, I can understand why you'd say this has no patchouli because the patchouli in Coco Mademoiselle is very strong and dirty on my skin. I also don't find this scent sharp in a citrusy way or otherwise, but it is definitely a floral scent (so it's less fruity and juicy than Miss Dior or Coco Mademoiselle), and it does have a sweetness to it. As the scent wears, the tagetes become more prominent, and the scent becomes drier and musky. A bit like dryer sheets, but as a person who dislikes the dryer sheet vibe, I have to say that this is soft and pleasant and clean. The tagetes are the most distinct flower in this scent, and the other flowers blend seamlessly. The tagetes are what differentiate this from Coco Mad and Miss Dior, but you only really smell them if you sniff your wrist close up, so I can understand why others smelling you would think it's Coco Mad. The drydown really just smells exactly like Miss Dior's. Ooh, also, Miss Dior always gives me a headache, but this does not! However, unfortunately, this does not last at all, and I'm not one to complain about longevity. It seriously lasts for around 1 hour. But! You really can't beat the scent itself for the price...it's so classy. It's such a big bottle and I only paid $14 for it. I wouldn't wear Coco Mad to work or school because it can get a bit strong, but I would totally wear this. There's no reason not to buy it. Just do it. Edit: This is great layered with Molinard Vanille!

Chanel mademoiselle was my signature perfume when I was younger so I know it very good.sanderling looks like mademoiselle but not very much.if I spray two of them with close eyes it's easy to say which one is Chanel and which one is Sanderling.but I think it's a good thing that Sanderling is not really a copy.I can enjoy both of them Chanel mademoiselle is mix of flowers and citrus and patchouli.Sanderling is mix of flowers and citrus too but less citrus and no patchouli.instead there is musk and vanilla and woods.mademoiselle is much much sharper and stronger.Sanderling is more soft and simple.I like that mademoiselle has a character and people can notice it but it's not my signature now because too much citrus and patchouli make it sharp and give me headache.no headache in Sanderling.also there is a flower in Sanderling that smells very good.maybe targets.I don't know.Sanderling smells cleaner.Sanderling is four season perfume but I like it more in spring.sillage of Chanel is better very much.Sanderling is moderate but longevity is good.I like it and I think it's a very good perfume.you can buy it if you like mademoiselle or not.if you want a cheap perfume that smells good and everybody like it and you can use it always Sanderling is good for you شنل مادمادل سالها عطر امضای من بود برای همین خیلی خوب می شناسمش.ساندرلینگ شبیهش هست اما نه خیلی.اصلا نمیشه گفت کپی مادمازل هست و این به نظر من چیز خوبی هست.میشه از هردو لذت برد.شنل مادمازل میکس گلها و مرکبات و نعنای هندی هست.ساندرلینگ میکس گلها هست با مرکبات خیلی کمتر و بدون پچولی.مادمازل شارپ تر و قوی تر و پیچیده تر هست.ساندرلینگ ملایم تر و ساده تر هست و بخاطر ملایم بودنش برعکس مادمازل سردرد ایجاد نمی کند.بوی تمیزتری هم دارذ.مثل مادمازل چهارفصل هست مخصوصا بهار.پخش خیلی کمتر دارد اما ماندگاری خوب.اگه یک عطر ارزون اما خوشبو که همه خوششون بیاد و همیشه بشه استفاده کرد خواسته باشید چه مادمازل را دوست دارید چه نه می تونید سندرلینگ را بخرید ۸/۱۰ 8/10

I recieved this little treasure from Fragrance Alley yesterday and I do not regret my blind buy one bit!!thanks to the skilled parfum critics here, a spot on description of Sanderling was provided for me to make an educated decision. $16.00 and change later, (whoohoo do I loooove a quality bargain!) this gem was on my dresser. Let me begin by saying I have never experienced Coco M so I am judging Sanderling purely on it's own merits and beauty! Crisp, zesty and refreshing are the bergamot and green notes that open the show, after shining brightly they graciously step aside to make way for the gorgeous floral heart.. and what an entrance they make.. full bloom roses, clean soapy jasmin and fragrant lilac mingle and dance a fragrant ballet around my wrists wafting up to my nostrils, keeping me enthralled till the finale of sensual musky woods and the last little trail of sweet vanilla. Bravo, bravissimo!! A delightful performance Yves de Sistelle Sanderling, I give you a standing ovation for the fragrance as a whole and an 8/10 for sillage 9/10 for lasting power Good show!

HMMMMMMMMM. WONDERFUL! I love Sanderling. Usually my heart beats faster for sweet, balsamic, vanilla like fragrances, but Sanderling is a gorgeous floral scent. Not overbearing, but surrounds you nicely in a light, yet very noticeable way, and the only flower gal where I have back up bottles of. You can't beat the price. She carries herself like a fragrance 4 times the price. I wear her when I want to be safe, when I want to smell great without being right under people's nose with a big statement frag. This is what I grab for when I visit my boyfriend's parents, or for a job interview. Even though she is less flamboyant than me and the scents that make me go crazy, she is by no means a wall flower. Sanderling is a really great scent for the right occasions with awesome longevity.

Never previously tried or owned CM but this perfume on it's own is captivating. Sumptuous florals intermingled with fresh greens, my senses are tingling all over. Almost like walking through a floral garden with freshly cut lawn. About 10 mins in I can really smell the geranium aspect in background. This is fantastically done and I cannot believe how cheap it is for the quality ($20 for the set with body cream, what the?!?!) If only the international postage was so cheap as well... I agree with the person who says that this can be worn by virtually anyone. I would be slightly more inclined to wear this during the Spring/Summer months, but I'm sure it could work either day or evening.

I also got this on reviews alone, that are informative, truthful, and seem to have covered every aspect of this perfume that I might consider important before a purchase. This is a very nice perfume. If Coco Mademoiselle were only 20.00.....even 10.00 more than this perfume, I would still buy Sanderling. That isn't to say I don't like Coco Mademoiselle, it's to say that Sanderling is every bit as lovely and special, to me. I must say, there are some very direct and specific people here that make me look forward to reading their reviews, agreeing or disagreeing. I'm going to go overdose on fumes now. If I am found dead, you will know not to buy what I smell like!

I blind bought this... and I LOVE it. It does smell very similar to Chanel Mademoiselle, though not as strong. It smells expensive, only a little sweet. To the common nose, most people would completely not be able to tell the difference unless they compared the two directly. Sillage is exactly what I like: just a little bit more than arms length, though at that distance, the scent is very faint. So that when your significant other comes closer, he can smell it very clearly... but for everyone else, it is not overwhelming them at all. Currently my favorite perfume next to CK Beauty, out of the ones I own.

This does indeed remind me of Coco Mademoiselle. I like this better though, on me it's a bit fruitier and just a bit sweeter than CM. And you can't beat the price, I paid a little under 10 euros for 100 ml. Excellent! [eta] I don't find this similar to Chance or Miss Dior Cherie at all. Chance just smells totally different to me and MDC to my nose is all about sweet strawberry. [eta2] I've been wearing this all day and the sillage and longevity are both very good. I put 3 sprays on at around 11:30 am and my husband says he could still smell it before I took a shower at 9:15 pm. This stuff is awesome!

Yes, I agree ! Sanderling is SO MUCH better than Chanel Coco Mademoiselle ! The fragrance is identical to Coco Mademoiselle, just as classy. If anything, Sanderling is actually a smoother, richer blend. Even friends and family can't tell any difference between CM and Sanderling. Sanderling has better silage and longevity, and smells expensive ! It's so much more feminine than Coco Mademoiselle ! A great secret treasure found at a wonderfully affordable price !

This just arrived at my front door--blind buy as result of glowing reviews on this site--and I must say, "Wow!!"--This is Coco Mademoiselle for $20.00. Unbelievable! I wear CM frequently, but of course it's $75.00 a bottle easily. I've only had this on for 2 hours, so I might follow-up later, regarding longevity. Projection is probably 5 feet. Grab this one if you're a Chanel fan!!

I bought it based on fragrantica reviews and it was a perfect choice! It is, indeed, very similar to coco mademoiselle, which I love! For those who want a CM feeling without spending too much, sanderling is the perfect choice! Loved it! Excelente perfume, muito parecido com o coco mademoiselle e beeemm mais barato! Vale a pena!

I personally have never smelled Coco Mademoiselle but I will say this is "Chanel like". I have had several other Chanel perfumes either I owned or sampled. This is a good one. Kind of an off choice, not from a well known perfumer but I am happy I bought it! I got this for a song on Overstock! ♥ Happy perfuming!

I decided to buy this thanks to a few recommendations from others on here and I must say,wow!This fragrance is beautiful and so sophisticated the longevity is great and the silage I would say is moderate.I was afraid this would smell too clean and it doesn't;bound to get you compliments.

One of the best blind buys ever. This scent is fantastic, fresh and classy in every way. I am so happy I purchased this. It also seems to have good sillage and lasting power. I would recommend this one to anyone who is thinking about it. I do sense a Chanel likeness in this perfume.

Sanderling is very similar to Coco Mademoiselle, not quite as strong (and no patchouli note), or as long lasting. I applied 3 hours ago, and I can just barely detect it on my arm. It is a good value, so reapply to your hearts content. Bottle is nice too.

Definitely similar to Coco Mademoiselle! I absolutely love this scent, its lovely and lasts a long time on me! Smells very expensive however the price is very reasonable compared to Coco. Will definitely repurchase!

And very funny, but I had an extra backup of this one that I totally forgot about! For you ladies loving Coco Mademoiselle and Miss Dior Cherie but would like a more affordable alternative go for this one!

I just received this today and love it. My husband bought me Madamemoiselle for our anniversary but I have only worn it twice because of the price. This can be my daily go to. I love it.

I just smell a warm bergamot and marigold combo. Gives me the black tea vibe. I spray it super freely but the longevity is weak.

What aan amazing review Citadel!
