A fresh woody gourmand fragrance built around citrus, ginger, cedar, sandalwood, amber. Scent profile not yet written in our editorial pass — the listed notes are the most reliable summary of the wear character until that's filled in.
Chance Eau Tendre
Grapefruit dominates the opening — bright, slightly tart, almost candied by the quince underneath. The heart softens quickly into a sheer jasmine with hyacinth adding a cool, green lift rather than anything powdery or heavy. The dry-down is where it earns its reputation: white musk and cedar settle into a clean, skin-close warmth that lingers without announcing itself. Projection is polite, sillage light — this one stays in your orbit, not the room's. — Ideal for warm-weather days, offices, or anyone who wants an effortless, grown-up clean without going aquatic.
