LES EAUX DE CHANEL

PARIS-VENISE

A composition of shadow and light, in which the essence of neroli illuminates the warm tones of an ambery accord with notes of vanilla and tonka.

THE INSPIRATION

1920. For Gabrielle Chanel, Venice is a revelation—and a new start. Shaken by the loss of her great love, Boy Capel, she falls under the spell of a city rich in contrasts. The glimmer of the Byzantine mosaics and precious gems of St. Mark’s Basilica inspires the designs of her first jewellery collections. PARIS-VENISE evokes this captivating city that marks the boundary between East and West.

“With PARIS-VENISE, I wanted a fresh fragrance, but with a round and soft expression.”

— Olivier Polge
