Chanel Gabrielle Essence Eau de Parfum, 100ml.
Top notes of citrus, bitter orange leaf and blackcurrant open with a slightly powdery feel.
Then comes an exotic floral-fruity sweetness with a lively, faintly boozy twist.
Heart notes of jasmine, ylang-ylang, orange blossom and tuberose slowly bloom, mature yet full of personality with a playful edge.
Base notes of sandalwood, musk and vanilla round it out.
Compared to the original Gabrielle, the Essence has a stronger tuberose and more prominent white florals, making it perfect for dates, while the original version is better suited for everyday office wear.
