In the 1980’s I adored this fragrance. I have kept the talc for many years, and now my daughters (& others) comment on its lovliness when I bring it out to trial.
It was/is intoxicating, but I think too, it is how it wears on the skin.
I never have received as many complements over a perfume as I received over this. And believe me, I have tried many.
Amazingly, often the perfume I don’t like so much, is one people like on me. Or if I like it, it is unremarkable when worn. This however, was a melding of both. I like it and it seems most others did too.
WHEN WILL IT BE RECREATED? PLEASE. Surely there is a whole World of women out there ready to embrace it again.
One young man asked me what I was wearing. He said, “Wow that is just lovely. I don’t have a partner at the moment, but if I did, I’d buy it for her.”

Browsing through an antiques market I came across a full cologne spray bottle of Chimere. The elegantly shaped bottle with its distinctive tortoiseshell cap was worth taking a gamble on. The perfume itself has held up well over time. It’s a lovely floral woody perfume and I find it enjoyable to wear, especially in cooler weather.
Chimere feels like a chypre, even though the traditional chypre notes aren’t listed above. It’s overall quite sweet, but it’s well-balanced by the smooth, warm woody base. There is nothing harsh or sharp. It is a rounded, enveloping type scent. It feels like a more mellow cousin of perfumes such as Tabu, Ciara, or Avon’s Persian Wood.
Chimere is old school elegance.

I lived in this for most of the 80’s. Unfortunately I did not stock up in it before it disappeared. I am hoping someone else remembers it and can tell me of a similar perfume – it has been a long time.
