Beige.

A wonderfully unagitated flower cream scent. The initial fear that he might slip away into the madam's world does not prove to be true on AugustA's skin, fortunately. Beige has - despite all restraint - a completely charming charisma. It is of subdued elegance, the fragipani flower appears fragrant, the opposite of loud. This already somewhat special creamy note, perhaps that makes the minimal woody-dusty astringency of hawthorn, has something refined. Creamy smell, yes, Nivea not at all.
In short: A very well-groomed fragrance. At the end smooth, very light honey, but never sweet. Hard for me to describe, it could be the epitome of the discreet cream scent. Goes of course to every occasion, with the slight tendency to appear too elegant. Sports, for example. Or window cleaning, or bricklaying and plastering. Or, oh, what the hell - he's never out of place. It's beige.

Please don't..

"Oh that fits me well now" was my first thought when I sprayed me Beige for the first time. Fits well that I find this fragrance quite nice but do not have to have. Please not another candidate for purchase. Perfect. Checked off.
Haha. Think. How do these Chanels always, that after a certain time, so noble, unobtrusive, perfectly dosed, timeless, clean, creamy, floral, perfectly interwoven, classically modern, and chanelig smell??? Phew, this one has really flashed me now after about 20 minutes. Can't stop sniffing my arm and sooner or later (probably sooner?) it will move in here. For me an elegant, modern and competent clean and well maintained fragrance. (if not one of the best)

End of Kill Bill

What have I not searched and inquired to find a super dupe to "Summer by Kenzo". I have never managed this in the last 6 years.
Not once after endlessly asking and researching.
Finally found this gem in the store today and I like it if not better.

Better durability. How it melts into my skin!
OMG! I'm almost rolling in tears....
The perfect blend of creamy, soapy (not too pungent). Most of all, rad how I came up with this one to test.

I was asked by a work colleague the other day what color I identify with the most.
The first thing that came to mind was BEIGE!
It's not my favorite color but I know how well I look with this color and it also has an almost magical effect on me. It grounds me in a way. If that makes any sense...
To get to the point,
It happened today at the Chanel booth in the department store when I saw the name and I immediately thought if the name is "Beige" it can only be the One. And bingo!

Now you can probably imagine me lying in bed sniffing my arm and almost crying. It's akin to the final scene of Kill Bill. When Uma lies teary-eyed on the tile floor in the bathroom and is happy because she got more than expected after her fight (unzwar her daughter.) Sounds exaggerated to equate this with a fragrance, but I do not care.

I'm soooo happy.... like I've found my personal holy grail.

Dreamlike!

Finally a bull's eye from Chanel.... Pure elegance...

I would have actually given up on finding a fragrance from Chanel that doesn't smell super classic and stale on my skin.... More than 20 years I have been looking for a Chanel fragrance but never found one. Again and again, they were all too classic for me, just uninteresting and not exciting.... Unexpected comes but as is well known often...

I was actually on the road to find the perfect tuberose fragrance, as I discovered the exclusive collection of Chanel ... An eager saleswoman asked about my preferences and sprayed me beige on a tester.... Inwardly I already had a plan to quickly disappear from the Chanel department again... Well the tester wandered towards my nose and Wow, such an elegant extremely delicious and super feminine I have not smelled for a long time.... I could hardly believe my enthusiasm for this fragrance itself ... I was immediately in my little movie. This is always a good sign for me when a fragrance immediately tells a story... Immediately I would have a person in mind who could wear this fragrance wonderfully, because the fragrance actually radiates in my opinion elegance in a very special modern way ... A fragrance that needs "its" people type to be able to really shine... I saw a woman, super elegantly dressed. She wore a black tight turtleneck sweater and black elegant pants. A pair of white pearls as earrings, clean and minimalist.... The scent carried her around the room or was it the other way around? It just harmonized in a super classy way.... She was not particularly flashy but she filled the room by her intangible elegance....

The fragrance starts with a feminine hurricane of frangipani and freesia. No sharp or cold hurricane of one Umhaut, but a soft, warm incredibly beguiling fragrant floral hurricane. Honey remains as a sweet undertone, which provides a certain cozy sweetness but without the fragrance directly smells of honey. A perfect glare along with the hawthorn.... It quickly becomes creamy and a touch powdery but also soapy. Who does not like soapy scents, should test the fragrance extensively, because it takes a while before the fragrance becomes soapy..

Beige has immediately landed on my personal WL... One of the most elegant fragrances I've ever gotten under the nose, beautiful, classic without old-fashioned to act but soapy is the fragrance already...

Thank you Beige

I had particularly high expectations of the fragrance. The many positive descriptions as a bright and friendly, restrained companion hit my perfume heart exactly.
My thanks go to Monsieur Polge for his perfumery masterpiece in introducing me to the scent of freesia. Thank you very much for that, now I know that I don't like this enchantingly pretty flower and its scent in perfumes - especially not in combination with honey.
Beige Eau de Parfum smells dull to me, reminds me of dusty laundry that urgently needs to go in the drum.
Sorry to all lovers - unfortunately my skin chemistry is not compatible with it olfactorily. At least not for me as a lover of fresh and clean fragrances.
