Oh, I had this when I was a teenager!!!
Such an exquisite fragrance, very unique (for that time, mid-70es). I loved wearing it and I remember very well how it smelled. I wish they would bring it back even though I am aware it would smell totally different now.
It was a complex scent, it was gifted to me by an aunt who used to give me a scent every Christmas and Chicane arrived when I was 14.
Aldheydes, yes, flowers, yes, but also woods and balsams melting with the skin in a dramatic way.
Aldheydes were a must at that time, here they gave an almost radiant opening, soon changing into something gloomy and then returning radiant again.
It was very long lasting and the flowers did not give a “young girl” impression (given my young age it was more than natural that I wanted to smell sophisticated and then – but no longer now – I despised Violetta di Parma and Cologne 4711 because I wanted to smell like a woman and not like a baby).
It was a merry scent, it was contradictory, complex, very grown-up in my opinion.
Beautiful, I am sure it would be lovely even today.
These are my impressions after many years, they have remained vivid in my mind (and heart), and they are the impressions of a joyous young girl wanting to conquer the world, so looking for more than flowers in a scent.
I have always wondered why Chicane soon disappeared, maybe to make room to a more polite Silences?
