Description
Since 1988, the house of Chopard has been a partner to Mille Migla prestigious race of vintage cars. 12 years ago, for this occasion, Chopard had launched a watch of the same name. 1000 Miglia masculine fragrance emerges at the end of 2013.
A man who takes part in the race, which serves as an imaginary model for this fragrance, must achieve three things: concentration, inner peace and unshakable self confidence.
The composition starts off with lavender accord, in all of its greenness, bergamot and juniper berries, with the heart of green grass, violet and skin and asphalt accords, and finishes of with amber, woody notes and coffee. Available as 50 and 80 ml EDT. 1000 Miglia was created by Olivier Polge and Bruno Jovanovic.

This used to be a great date night fragrance… I’ve had two or three bottles can’t remember I think it has been reformulated… anyone else feel that?

1000 Miglia Chopard!
When iu first saw this I thought, this must smell like rubber and asphalt!
boy I was wrong.
But in a surprisingly delightful way.
The more you wear this, the more will you appreciate it.
All i smell is delight! I can’t say it’s fantastic, but I can’t stop wearing it.
Scent: 8/10
I like can’t say more
Longevity: 8/10
on my skin 3 sprays last around 4 hours of projection and 6 hours of skin scent.
Will I buy this again? maybe.

Bought this blind, thinking it would be nice. WHERE did I get the idea this was a high-quality fragrance? Was it the cursive writing on the bottle? The truth is it’s scented plastic. SCENTED PLASTIC. The only GOOD things I can say is the scent isn’t bad, but is blended with plastic. And the bottle is VERY nice. But since the juice ain’t good, forget it!

Why didn’t I buy this sooner?! Asphalt and leather is definitely accurate! But this isn’t at all unpleasant. In fact, the girlfriend smelled this one and said “Wow that smells nice!” – but in an intriguing sort of way, with a very surprised look on her face and wide eyes.
Thanks to the violet, the sweet asphalt notes almost have a deep fruitiness to them, like the blueberry notes in Jay Z Gold, but less fruity, more industrial. This also has a nice spicy cardamom that I don’t see listed in the notes here. The spice fades a bit quicker than you’d expect, leaving the asphalt and leather dancing under sweetness on your skin. It smells sweet and playful on the skin from up close, and intriguingly like pleasant asphalt from afar.
I’d LOVE to smell this on someone else, just so they can walk by and I can think to myself, “Man, that smells like asphalt! But it smells good!” It does things for me that Dior Fahrenheit did, but without the rubbery-leather. This is more like sweetened-asphalt-leather, and a different leather note at that. With all the Fahrenheit and Mugler A*Men fans out there, I’m really surprised this isn’t more popular! This smells nothing like either of them, but it accomplishes the same sort of goal, equally as well as they did.
I’m really enjoying the quality of scents so far from Chopard! My first was Oud Malaki, which smells amazing as well. Quality definitely seems to be on-par with other more expensive brands! For that reason, I don’t think I’ll sneeze at the price the next time I consider a Chopard fragrance. I really love the heavy solid metal caps they use as well!

I never used a Chopard fragrance before so was very eager to own one…so bought this for $84 recently… I regret i did that !!
Its obviously a good smelling thing but really not worth the expensive cost. I expected sumthing special but its not. Longevity etc. is very ordinary..And this is not the first time its happened with me. I buy sumthing after hearing a lot about it, only to be disappointed !!
For heavens sake can someone please tell me which leading names are really worth the money ???? For eg. I loved Dior Savage wich i found quite unique and lasting. Moschino Forever Sailing is the strongest cologne ive tried so far and i just loved the constant whiff i got from it for upto 10 hrs after spraying !!
Is there any cologne tat is so unique yet so lasting ????

Hi folks, I received my BLIND BUY bottle of 1000 Miglia earlier today, I LIKE it! Firstly it is a very nice scent.To my nose it reminds of JOOP WILD:sweet,long lasting.Nothing jarring or unpleasant about it to me.I wish this was around in my 30’s I would have LOVED IT! That brings me to another aspect of this fragrance,it is a more youthful scent which is not a bad thing at all,I just wasn’t expecting that aspect of it’s personality! It is Joopish in its sweetness,playful and enticing. I was just hoping for a more rugged leathery/woodsy smell. If I already didn’t have Wild Homme in my collection I might like it a little more,I just hate having two frags that are so similar in scent even if the scent is a good one! My baggage…other reviews can tell you better of what smells stand out,for me it is masculine,sweet,a playboy or jet-set kid kind of scent. Glad I do own it I’m sure I will wear it plenty and receive compliments when I do.I’m just sorry we found each other 20 years too late,this would have been my going to the club fragrance back in the day! I sprayed just one spritz on the back of my wrist over an hour+ ago it is still mighty! GO EASY with it would be my advice,it’s too good to douse yourself in, if worn in excess I could see this going from “WHAT are wearing? :-)” to “WHY are you wearing that 🙁 “! This is solidly good stuff,no regrets on my end other than feeling a little too old for it-a good scent for you youthful types and I could also see ladies being comfortable wearing this because of the sweet sexiness of it! Hope this helps in your decision making.A firm Yay from me! Also, I purchased my 1000 Miglia for $20.99+ free shipping from a link above and it arrived pretty darn quickly and nice and securely shipped! A great value for a blind buy.Happy New Year! Enjoy smelling great!

This is a mix between fahrenheit and
mercedes intense, tho they do not smell
anything alike they share some similarities,
so if you like those two you might like this
one as well, i am very pleased with it as it
was rather cheap too.

Scent is nice but I found it very weak in lasting and sillage
#update:
I find it very good in longevity.I can smell it after 3 days on my shirt!but sillage is still weak

Open with bold lavender notes. Overall its sexy frag. Winter frag.
I detects a lot of tanka beans notes or something smoky sweet (maybe coffee notes)
Asplalt accords appears 2-3hrs.
Overall on my skin 8+hrs.
Smoky Aroma sweet with some spice . its a manly stuff.
I love the scent. But hate in its cost.

What a dissapointment, I’ve been waiting this cologne for a long time since the concept, the packaging, the brand and the perfumers are so awesome! but unfortunately to me it is very similar to Armani Code Ultimate after the opening, too spicy and heavy on tonka bean, quite offensive actually. If you want a good Chopard fragrance, check out Noble Cedar.
