Égoïste in detail
Chanel sees in Égoïste Eau de Toilette the portrait of a man with a strong temperament, mysterious and hard to pin down; its bottle plays on the sobriety of straight lines. The house describes it as a woody, spicy amber; its page gives neither the year nor the perfumer.
Mandarin and subtly spicy coriander open the composition with vigour. Turkish rose then brings an enveloping floral warmth. New Caledonian sandalwood, Madagascar vanilla and ambrette seed leave a sensual, ambery trail.
Égoïste is worn in autumn and winter, mostly in the evening. It is a round, elegant spicy woody fragrance, for those who love warm sandalwoods. It readily accompanies a dinner or a winter evening, where its warmth can unfold.
Three niche woody fragrances in our catalogue share several of its materials: Harrods Aoud by Roja Parfums brings together rose, sandalwood, vanilla and ambrette; Kashmir by Ormonde Jayne pairs coriander, rose, sandalwood and vanilla; Oud Noir Intense by Fragrance Du Bois combines rose, sandalwood and vanilla.
