Review of original mid seventies Chloe edt, Parfums Lagerfeld. Vintage original Chloe opens as an innocent white floral bouquet only to evolve in a darker way. Aldehydes, narcissus, honeysuckle, tuberose, slightly peachy, powdery, green... It is a testament to the green florals, with emphasis on florals, of the 70's. Reminiscent of Anaïs Anaïs like many have mentioned, Chloe is decidedly more rich, buttery and narcotic. Tuberose, which is the main player just can't hide, and even though there's a canopy of white flowers, the coconut lends an even more butter rich texture to the already heavy tuberose. The peach doesn't smell like peach; it feels like peach fuzz on alabaster skin. Puberty, hormones raging, sexual desires awakening. Chloe captures the moment of transition from girl to woman in the most innocent way, but at the same time it makes a woman feel more desirable thanks to its raging beauty. Despite its apparent innocence, a tender floral, the wildness of its rich flowers appealed to all women alike. Like tuberose, which starts pristine and virginal, and as the night approaches it becomes a vixen, deadly, narcotic. It is a lush rich floral, which allows you to see what you are ready to see. It captures the image I have of the 70's, and along the way, it seems to show a tender sexual awakening. No wonder it was embraced by many filling the air with its scent. I never experienced Chloe before, but as a lover of tuberose, I found an incredibly well executed rendition, that is rich, elegant, full of force and ready to take over. The emancipation of a flower. As always, no gender label for me. I wear it, I let it take over, and I dream of a time when everything felt possible. Ideal in spring/summer, where the heat makes it come completely alive on skin. Heavy sillage and very good longevity. Side note: from what I've found, the very original release came in pure parfum, the gorgeous bottle with its Cala Lilly stopper, a silver travel atomizer of Parfum, edt splash in clear bottle, edt spray in frosted glass bottle and accompanying body care. Many mention an edp which I believe was released somewhere in the 80's to rival with the powerhouses of the decade. By then it was already Parfums Chloe so I suspect there was already a tweak in the formula.
