My first Chanel

Allure will accompany me forever.
The vanilla is excellent hit for me, it gives the perfume warmth and even a slight woodiness, along with the vetiver.
Allure fits for me also in every season and to almost all occasions.
I find Allure to be very cuddly without being smothering.
It's a bit powdery and floral.
Jasmine can be perceived, as well as magnolia and May rose.
In the course of the fragrance flashes always times the lemon. That distinguishes Allure.
It is an all-rounder. Even more so an elegant one.
The honeysuckle is great placed.
Allure is really a beautiful fragrance.
It picks up many components without being a bad and too loud mixture. For me, nothing stings there.
This fragrance is one of my favorite, sometimes I use it almost daily and sometimes not at all for a long time, but a bottle is in the house

The right name for a truly alluring scent

She bears the right name, she is indeed really alluring. So well blended and beautiful. A classy lady with a young vibe.
I receive tons of compliments when wearing Allure, mainly from other women. It is a really a divine scent.

Oriental Vanilla

I class this as an oriental vanillic. Super strong and heady, in the genre of Shalimar. Tiring of it, I handed it over to my girlfriend, who loved it up and was last heard complaining there was only now a dribble left in the bottle.

Bad Allure Allround :(

I love "Allure Sensuelle" and that bottle almost reached its last drop, so, when I saw "Allure EdP" on sale and wanting to try a different yet *same* scent, I blind bought this - Mistake.

On my skin I get a bad peach note that is arguing with the vetiver, cedar and God knows what else it's picking a street-fight with! But it's making me dizzy and slightly nauseous. I get none of the familiar Chanel vibe at all! It might as well be a completely different house! I had to wash it off....a rare occurrence but another harsh reminder that blind buys are risky even when you already own and like the *original* or *flanker*.

Alas, to all of you whose chemistries embraces this: enjoy! I guess I have to find a home for this one and grace the Chanel counter once again with my lovely presence : )

I happily do without "Allure"

I cannot share the positive attitude towards "Allure". To me, it is a disappointing, boring fragrance. Too cool and detached, repetitive and dull.
Probably aimed at rich business women who want to feel secure by purchasing a famous brand, but where is the soul of this perfume?

I'm in love with Allure.
For me, it is the best perfume ever.
Elegant, sophisticated, sexy and seductive.
Allure is not just a fragrance, it's a must have!

Creamy bouquet

I was surprised that this was a Chanel perfume. It was definitely not what I would have expected from their range. It's so deliciously soft and feminine. Other Chanel fragrances, to my nose, smelt sharp and mature, but not this one.

On my skin it transforms into a lovely warm vanilla and jasmine, which surprisingly exudes sex appeal. I was always one for describing Chanel fragrances as classy and conservative, but never in my life would I have thought that one of their scents would be so sensual and sexy.

Allure still does, however, stay true to the Chanel style, remaining classy, elegant and timeless. What I love most about this fragrance is its ability to suit almost every occasion. You could wear it to work, on a date, to a wedding or anywhere your heart desires. You wouldn't even have to re-apply this perfume at the end of the day because the lasting power is so good.

It is fairly obvious and easy to conclude that a woman that wears this has impeccable taste in perfume.
