PRODUCT
The story of a scent created by Gabrielle Chanel in 1930.
By naming that fragrance after the towering tree, the designer, who reigned over the cultural capital of Paris, revealed her earthbound roots—her childhood spent near Auvergne, France, and its age-old volcanoes. Intensely woody, SYCOMORE is offered in a Parfum—the purest and most powerful concentration.
The Classic Bottle, a majestic faceted flacon, is completed with the art of baudruchage, a seal held in place by 2 rows of pearl-cotton thread and finished with a black wax stamp.
COMPOSITION
Composed by Olivier Polge, CHANEL In-House Perfumer Creator, the slightly spicy scent is intersected by the liveliness of vetiver, inhabited by iris and enveloped by accents of leather and vanilla.
ART OF PERFUMING
Parfum is the most precious, concentrated and long-lasting form of fragrance, with its own specific application. Mademoiselle’s advice was to apply it “wherever you would like to be kissed.” Neck, wrist, décolleté… Apply a drop of Parfum on each pulse point, letting it develop on your skin and feeling the fragrance echo the beat of your heart.
