CHANCE EAU SPLENDIDE
Sparkling, astonishing, mystifying: for CHANEL, chance is never a matter of coincidence. It arises from a timely encounter, a purposeful meeting. It lands at the very heart of the chessboard of life, in splendid style, following the guiding fragrance trail of Gabrielle Chanel, who went so far as to say that chance was her soul. It can be taken audaciously, created courageously, in a loud and clear voice, and it can be seized with an opening gambit that aims high.
CHANCE is a fragrance for those who, like CHANEL, believe that chance favours those who know how to seize it. It embodies a state of mind, a declaration of faith and a roll of the dice that creates destiny in a game played over and again.
CHANCE is always a winning olfactory encounter. Its dynamic, encapsulated energy circulates with audacity, spirit and a natural, revitalizing burst of laughter.
This enchanting euphoria was captured in 2003 by Jacques Polge, CHANEL In-House Perfumer-Creator from 1978 to 2014, with the creation of the first CHANCE, a virtuoso fragrance that upended the established order.
Since then, three interpretations have revealed three new colours: dynamic and spirited green CHANCE EAU FRAÎCHE; soft and tender pink CHANCE EAU TENDRE; fiery and bold orange CHANCE EAU VIVE. Four fragrances, four chances, four formulas heralding the arrival of good fortune in round bottles that resemble precious bowling balls in life’s game of ninepins.
“The original idea behind CHANCE, was a state of mind that we interpreted in very different styles. Each CHANCE fragrance is unique, but they all express the same state of mind. There is no common composition, but something along the lines of a feeling and an emotion that each fragrance expresses—something very lively and very direct.”
Olivier Polge,
CHANEL In-House Perfumer-Creator
And suddenly, a new CHANCE arrives. A new fragrance, like a spring-board to the future, reaches straight for increasingly auspicious skies: CHANCE EAU SPLENDIDE.
EAU SPLENDIDE
A MAJOR NEW WOMEN’S FRAGRANCE BEARING THE SCENT OF SURPRISE
“CHANCE EAU SPLENDIDE is a luminous, spontaneous and captivating fragrance.”
Olivier Polge,
CHANEL In-House Perfumer-Creator
A new colour in the CHANCE palette. After pink, green, yellow and orange comes purple. The shade of magic and lightness tinged with mystery and nobility. Rebellious energy conceals depth and dazzling power behind its capers.
This new creation by Olivier Polge is a marvel of paradoxes. Sprightly yet rooted. Sparkling yet rigorous.
Its fruity-floral fragrance trail sews the seeds of a luminous and captivating mystique. It blends a sparkling raspberry accord revealing facets of crisp fruit, rose and violet, with an elegant and magnetic floral heart of rose geranium partly grown in the CHANEL fields in Grasse. A subtly faceted cedar joins white musk notes in an accord that prolongs tenacity and releases vibrant woody notes, accompanied by a sophisticated touch of powdery iris.
This subtly sophisticated, joyful and intricate new CHANCE is full of surprises. It appears where it is least expected and tells a splendid story. Both playful and teasing, it seeks good fortune with an irreverent laugh and takes a gamble in a game that is never over.
CHANCE EAU SPLENDIDE is like a spritz of good fortune at the neck that one chooses to believe in over and again.
Because CHANCE EAU SPLENDIDE is the fragrance of the bold, who know that chance favours those who dare to seize it. Those for whom the game is never over, for whom no truth is ever set in stone.
IT’S THE NEW CHANCE BY CHANEL. AND IT IS SPLENDIDE.
The new perfume will be available from April 23, 2025, at CHANEL Fragrance and Beauty boutiques and on the CHANEL Official Fragrance & Beauty E-Shop.
