This is incredible on me. It smells so yummy and beautiful and it stays that way all day. I can’t stop smelling my wrist. Ppl can’t stop smelling on me. This one is in my TOP 10 faves ever. I know ppl say that the edt was best but I tell u my edp is amazing, better than the edt sample I got. I just can’t describe how much I love this perfume. It’s epic. I got two of the huge bottles. I never wanna be without it. I’m so glad it works great with my chemistry. Boy does it work with my chemistry.
I was also wondering why you had never reviewed this until now. As a matter of fact, I was searching your whole video playlist three days ago, yet I could not find it! Good to finally see your review for this amazing bottle! I have it, and it is the best Chanel for me followed by Allure Sensuelle! Love from the Philippines!
Kamusta! I have no idea how this one escaped me. Thanks for the comment. BTW The Philippines is my absolute bucket list of countries I need to visit. Corocan, Palawan.....all of it.
ouch110 Fragrance Reviews Oh! Thanks for replying to my comment! Please, visit my country soon! Yes, Palawan is an amazing place! Been there a couple of times, and it never fails to amaze me! The beaches there are to die for! I would be more than happy to be your tour guide! Keep shining! ^^
I have the OG Coromandel EDT I purchased at Bergdorf & Goodman in NYC pre-2010. I sprayed it twice and it stayed in its box hidden inside a cabinet since. 🤓
You finally did it, yay! Oh my, isn’t Coromandel something?! It is stunningly beautiful. Everything you said, yes! Love it. Spot on. I have the edp, and as for performance, I wouldn’t go so far as to call it beastly, though it does project well for a while, but it lasts quite a long time. If I touch it up around 3pm, I can smell it the next morning...and man, that far into the dry down it’s soooo yummy. So good, so glad I have it. Agree the big bottle isn’t big enough lol. That’s one of the bottles that I hate to see going.
It's amazing on clothes isn't it? Just such a wonderful scent. I really would go to the dark side to get my hands on the original EDT. It was just amazing. Alas...reformulation strikes again!
Thanks for this review, I love the Chanel Triva!! Just added this to my collection (the EPD). This smell extremely similar to Armani prive amber eccentrico. The dry down of the channel smells like the opening of Armani. Please review more for the Chanel exclusive line.
Oh it does? That's interesting. I have been wondering about things that might be similar to this. Someone mentioned a fragrance a while ago by Rance called Laetitia Millesme but I'm still on the lookout for it. :)
I wholeheartedly agree with you. Coromandel is one of my favourite fragrances ever. I own a sample of the original EdT and I'm still beating myself up for not getting a bottle when I had the chance (before they ramped up the price). I also own a bottle of the EdP and, unfortunately, for me it's just not the same. Is it still beautifully blended? Yes. Does it still smell good? Yes. But I'm not as in love. I am one of the those who enjoyed the contrast between the patchouli, which gave a woody, natural, wet earth vibe and the warm, yummy, cozy amber. It was like an enchanted forest or eating vanilla cake wearing a cashmere sweater by the fire of a wooden cabin. I don't know, it was just magical. The new version not only lacks considerably in performance on my skin (which considering the supposed increase in concentration and the definite increase in price is annoying to say the least), but it is even more linear. Just sweet from beginning to end with a slight hint of patchouli in the background, at least to my nose. I still like the EdP, though, and I'll continue wearing it, but I'll treasure my 2ml vial like a jewel and will only dare to use it in extremely momentous occasions.
Oh wow that's so disappointing. I really need to sniff out the new EDP. I was hoping it would be stronger and more rich like the original. What a shame. :( I am also one who is kicking themselves for not getting the original edt when it was around, I waited too long and it bit me in the butt!
I think the Chanel DNA is, that they really think about what they can leave out, without changing the statement of a fragrance. Every note has its place and is there for a reason.
I just bought a large sample of Chanel Coromandel and OMG it unlike any perfume I have ever smelled. It is now in my top 10 as well. My goodness, it is a masterpiece. I NEED a full bottle of this amazing perfume. The largest bottle I can find. I own about 40 or more high end perfumes and most I hardly ever wear. I tend to go for the favorites. I can see me wearing this incredibly delicious perfume every day. I now can’t stop smelling my wrist. You really do describe it perfectly tho. I’m not really a big fan of Chanel perfumes, but this one is amazing. Now I know what I’m getting for my birthday. A VAT of this perfume.....haha haha If only......
I really like your review, and i own several bottles of edt. But what i dont understand is why everybody thinks White chocolate is a note. The White choco Vibe comes from the patchouli mixed with vanilla. 😊
TOTALLY agree with everything you're saying here. I'm OBSESSED! OMG, have you tried layering with the new Coromandel body oil? That is a white chocolate BOMB!!!! I like to also layer with the extrait de parfum. I get so wound up with the deliciousness of it that it's like being on cocaine. Sometimes I have to give it a break because it's that good, I get strung out by it. 🤣
I wanted to love Coromandel soooo much. I made sure to get my bottle of Eau de Parfum directly in the Chanel boutique in my city, so that it would be an original. I sniffed it in the boutique and my first thought was "very light, but lovely, not oh-my-god-ish, but lovely, maybe the drydown will convince me of its magic". I bought the 200 ml bottle. Now that I have had a few days to try it, wear it, sniff it intensely, I cannot understand what all the fuzz is about in the fragrance community. It is nice, but on me it lasts maybe 15 minutes. Then it is GONE. Just like that... :(( I am so disappointed. I do know that some say, the Eau de Toilette was way stronger, better and so on... But come on... For THAT price point I expected at least SOME sillage and strength... And it was wrapped in its original box (no light interference) and wrapped-up in cellophane when I bought it. Me sad...
Very good Tom, love this, my partner doesn't like me using it though, she thinks it's too feminine for me. I have the 400ml limited edition edp but i slightly prefer the older edt which i have too, it's slightly stronger and richer. I need to catch up with you're other vids man!! Been Too busy.
The older edt is the one I would sell a kidney for lmao. Seriously...it was magnificent!!! I need to try the new EDP to compare to mine, haven't they hiked the price up again too though?
I love it too! Latest year though it has gotten competion from Rancé 1795 Laetitia Millesime that has the same kind of vibe, the earthy chocolaty patchouli and resins. The differens is that Laetitia has more development, more stages and it last about 12 hours (on me!) and ends as a softer vanilla/flower. Try if you find it, it’s not easy to come by but if you love Coromandel i think you will love Laetitia as well! (Note to self; must track down another bottle of it..)
Oh wow, now I need to hunt some of this one down. I've never heard of that one before. They sell that brand in a shop in London but it's SO far away from where I live haha. I'l have a look online, thanks for the suggestion.
Ah well, there you go Thom. I had to go online hunting down a sample before the vid was finished. You're not safe for my wallet Thom! To be fair I've wanted to sniff this for YEARS. I've read countless glowing blog posts. You were the straw that broke my reserve. ☺️
ouch110 Fragrance Reviews I do. I’ve tested twice. I am not sure how I feel abt it. It really reminds me of a dry Fancy Nights and I didn’t care for Fancy Nights. It has great lasting power and it’s a beautiful patchouli. There is an extreme earth, rooty soil phase on my skin for abt an hour. I’m unsure if I want to smell like overturned soil. There is a lovely phase that I guess is the white chocolate and other notes. It’s creamy and complex. But the straight patchouli returns to a swan song. More testing is required.
That bottle you are displaying as your own treasure, will be considered the Medium size very soon. Chanel is coming out with an even bigger bottle! :-)
Hmm I may have to try this one . Someone mentioned it’s similar to Halle by Halle berry perfume that was discontinued 😢 Ive been trying to find something similar to it .
Excelente reseña, se nota que amas Coromandel, lo describes muy apasionado, yo tengo muchas ganas de probarlo, aqui en mi ciudad no esta a la venta, he visto que el EDT, ya esta descontinuado, habra mucha diferencia con el EDP? Saludos desde GDL MEX. Espero algun dia TENERLO.
¡Muchas gracias! Realmente me encanta esta fragancia. No puedo decir demasiada diferencia entre el EDP y el EDT. Tendría que hacer una comparación lado a lado, lo que podría ser una buena idea para un video, ¡así que gracias! Gran idea. Me alegra que hayas disfrutado el video!
Hi Tom could you do a review on Mon Parfum Chéri by Annick Goutal? It is my favourite autumn perfume but no one talks about it on TH-cam 🙁 A looot of patchouli in that one 😉
Hi... I have been a silent follower of your channel for quite a long time. Need a help... there is a hair serum/oil Icon India oil... very warm spicy incense... need something that smells like that... ps: bought Stella on your reco and am on my second bottle ❤️❤️
Hello!!! Hi! Welcome. It would be really difficult for me to recommend something as I have never smelled the oil myself. :( I have been to India though haha, maybe I should have picked it up there! Do you know what ingredients are in it?
the edt isn't made anymore. all of the Les exclusifs line are now EDP. I think you call probably find the edt on eBay for a small fortune, but in my humble opinion it's not necessary, the EDP version is beautiful.
I always say BOTH!!! Fragrance lasts wonderfully on clothes. Just don't overkill. Wear it on your skin, but I always do two spritzes on my clothes too. :)

I have not smelled the new EDP but this comment is gonna make me hold on to my EDT like a mother monkey clutching it's baby.
again, the best opening tune of any fragrance reviewer...
Haha thanks.
Yes this is masterpiece, I would like to see your review on Carner Barcelona Tardes
Oh...I have never heard of this before, what is it like?
Another wonderful review! I just blind bought it today and it will be here on Wednesday!!! I’m so excited 😆❤️
Hope you enjoy it!
My perfume since years. Happy that it is not so common either I feel more unique when I wear it.
It's beautiful!

good job explaining a very beautiful and complex frag...
Thanks!
I love it to and want it badly! Chanel magic, to me, is their use of aldehydes!
I love it too! Latest year though it has gotten competion from Rancé 1795 Laetitia Millesime that has the same kind of vibe, the earthy chocolaty patchouli and resins.

Oh I found a sample of it for £3.50. I think I may order it!
The parfums are incredible
Would you like to smell this on a woman? How would it be in the heat? Do you like this more than Sycamore? Loved the review!
Ah well, there you go Thom.
I had to go online hunting down a sample before the vid was finished.
You're not safe for my wallet Thom!
To be fair I've wanted to sniff this for YEARS. I've read countless glowing blog posts.

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh dear!!!! Have you got it now? What do you think??

@@ouch110 Espero esa reseña de los 2. Saludos
Loved your review. Are you wearing the EDT or the EDP version?
Thanks you. This is the EDT. :)
Hello,
what’s the difference between edt and edp?
i have about 4ml of the lovely exclusif ...omg! gorgeous scent...
Absolutely gorgeous!
As a point of reference, how would you compare this to Coco? :) love your reviews
Very different, Coco is much more spicy, this is sweet. Both are great though! :)
My dear, the magic is simply this: Jacques Polge. ;)
Yes!
Great review!
Thank you!
Olibanum is Frankincense I believe grown in the middle east. That is the one that was given to the baby Jesus in the barn.
PLEASE GUYS, IS THERE ANOTHER FRAGRANCE WHICH SMELL EXACTLY LIKE COROMANDEL WITH BETTER PROJECTION AND LONGEVITY
Not sure about better projection and longevity but Oriental Pearl by Shanghai Tang reminded me of Coromandel. Still....nothing will every beat it. :)
@@ouch110thanks you very much
Hi Tom could you do a review on Mon Parfum Chéri by Annick Goutal?
It is my favourite autumn perfume but no one talks about it on TH-cam 🙁
A looot of patchouli in that one 😉
Hello!!! Hmm I just checked my sample box and I have Mon Parfum Cheri, Par Camille, is that the one you mean??
ouch110 Fragrance Reviews Hi there. Yes it is 🙂 It is the perfume Camille dedicated to her mother Annick.
Which one is more better Coromandel or Sycomore 🤔
Coromandel! Always. :) But everyone has different taste.
Why this fragrance is very exclusive? Very hard to find in Thailand
:( You can only usually find it in big department stores, chanel stores and some airports. sad times.
I have Mademoiselle and Noir. How does this compare?
Very different, this one is oriental and sweet with a focus on patchouli. This is the best chanel fragrance for me.

shreya jha hmm there’s not really any info about what it smells like so, I’m afraid I’m in the dark. :(
coco's blood or sth....lol ! i totally agree
Does this smell like Tom Ford Black Orchid?
Not one tiny bit. :)
can anyone tell me the difference between edt and Edo Thank you. x
the edt isn't made anymore. all of the Les exclusifs line are now EDP. I think you call probably find the edt on eBay for a small fortune, but in my humble opinion it's not necessary, the EDP version is beautiful.
Why am i suppose to spray it? Clothes or skin
I always say BOTH!!! Fragrance lasts wonderfully on clothes. Just don't overkill. Wear it on your skin, but I always do two spritzes on my clothes too. :)
I didn’t want to tell them , but I did coz they were family, haha 😂
I thought they were all EDP
They used to be EDT. Then they changed them all to EDP. :)
