“A liberating perfume is wafting over the rue Saint-Honoré. Chloe LOVE is a scent that’s both chic and vintage, seductive and assertive”
The latest fragrance from Chloe, the French fashion house famous for clean lines and fabulous handbags, Chloe Love is a mature perfume that simply oozes with pure sophistication, taking Fragrance Fashionistas through a scent of citrus and florals that’s both chic and vintage. Perfumers Louise Turner, Nathalie Cetto-Gracia and Daniela Andrier have mixed heliotrope flower with iris to reproduce the smell of vintage rice powder while keeping the floral and clean aspects that are typical of Chloe.
“Poetic and evocative, Chloe turns another beautiful page in the Book of Roses with LOVE, offering something like the nostalgic scent of a stolen kiss under a veil of muslin from a Jane Austen novel. Orris, rice notes, heliotropine and musks suggest a perfume inspired by lotions, creams, makeup and vintage powder boxes, with exquisite results…”
The play opens with the zing of candied violet, orange blossom, and pink pepper, making for an unique, eye opening statement that is unlike other perfumes on the market. This nostalgic accord is merely the gateway to a hazy, languid eau de parfum that becomes more intimate as the skin's heat pulses through it. After about fifteen minutes the sweet floral scent of iris, lilac, wisteria, hyacinth and heliotrope will take you on a journey through a beautiful garden filled with colorful flowers and sunshine. By the end of the day, its tempered with the smooth, powdery scent of musk, talc and buttery rice will leave you with a relaxing fragrance experience. Overall, it’s an incredibly sophisticated fragrance perfect for daytime occasions, warm weather and the office.
Chloe Love is available now for just HK$480 for a 50ml bottle.
