I have owned Comete for almost a month and I find it a very suitable, work friendly scent. I have received many compliments from my male friends. Iris is my favorite note used in fragrance. I have mostly worn Comete during the day and 31 Rue Cambon in the evening. I haven’t reach for 1957 since I’ve own Comete 😮. I Love your use of the word “stardust”. I agree.
I actually got the opportunity to sample Comete by chance yesterday. Given the negative opinions I'd read, I found myself pleasantly surprised when I sprayed it. The almond (cherry blossom I am less sure of...) is very nicely done, if a little short lived, and the whole perfume flows beautifully. Funnily (in the context of your reviews), I also found it far more akin to Cuir de Russie than I did Le Lion to CdR. In fact I'd go as far as to say it's like a more modern/streamlined CdR to my nose! In that sense, I was very much impressed. The problem, however, is the price. The bubble has to burst at some point for all our sakes - the level of exploitation (and that *is* what Chanel's current pricing structure is) has gone through the roof. It's fundamentally damaging to society. In my view companies are creating artificial 'scarcity' through ridiculous prices whilst, at the same time, leaning heavily in to 'aspirational' marketing that encourages people to spend money they can't really afford to feel like they're a success. In days of yore, I suspect a luxury perfume would be released as 50ml, 30ml or even a 15ml so that it was at least somewhat available to all members of society.
Currently I am working on the future ESA mission Comet Interceptor. When we launch, I will gift this scent to myself. It's calling me and seems a beautiful connection between my hobby and my job :-)
Chanel fragrances are always worth the investment, they are the epitome of fine fragrance. Like a lot of them I'm never too keen on the first spray as I find them too aldehydic/ powdery but dry down beautifully. Love this one, very complex yet fresh, like walking through a late summer meadow! The iris is soooo pretty.
Have tested this 4 times so far and it was a great like from first sniff, it seems fem but it wears so nice on my ultra masculine skin 😆 i'm now considering a bottle
We were just in Paris and our SA at 31 Rue Cambon gave us a healthy 5-7ml decant of Comete and we got a 4ml from an SA at LBM. It’s a nice aldehyde forward scent that will find fans.
Oh my god the cheese tangent made me laugh, I wouldn't have put it past yoi to keep on, after the X-men video. I would say you and your channel too procures us optimism in these dark times so thank you !
Gosh, I'm glad I discovered your channel and got into Chanel perfumes a couple of years back. 31 Rue Cambon is one of my favourite scents and I paid about 2/3 of what it costs now. And it wasn't that long ago. Fortunately, I live close to a Chanel boutique, so checking out Comete will be free and you also made me want to give Le Lion another chance.
What a day. So many gem reviews. This sounds most exciting so can’t wait to smell it. Revisiting old fashion style seems to be the trend - or is it just me seeing what I want to see? On side note - very elegant kurta.
@@Persolaise True. It is a very expected style from Mr Polge but even the new Malle and Lutens have this hat tip / hint to past sort of thing going on in my opinion.
Thanks for the great review. Can’t wait to get it this week. I adore Coromandel, number 22 and Jersey.. I do not see Jersey as being sweet, I can’t do very sweet perfumes. You should try Jersey again. it may surprise. You 😅😉
I might try it. I do like those kind of pretty, elegant florals sometimes. For price decreasing, they may launch new fragrances at lower prices. That's what some brands do for handbags.
Can not wait to try this on Friday. The prices are getting out of hand but John Lewis usually do a 15% off sale once every few months on Chanel fragrances so I would definitely wait for that instead of paying the full £375. Great review as always sir 🙂
To me comete is more of a warmer floral perfume. It doesnt excite me as other Chanel perfumes do. It does have unique dimension but Comete does not give a special aura. Amazing you mentioned no19 poudre as I mentioned it to my SA at chanel cos i smell it in comete.
Oh, I'm going to love it. no doubt. // Funny, I only recently smelled Bleu in parfum version, husband was sampling, and *was I ever* surprised by how much I enjoy it! ... didn't expect that one. The trail through the house was gorgeous. The citrus on skin, nicely done! But even Bleu at $160 for 1.7 oz is something that has to be thought about twice, thrice & again ... because, ya know ... groceries. I hate having to prioritize over perfume! 🙃 (of course that is a joke. I think.)
In the US comete is about 290 pounds or 330 euro :( after I saw your opinion of it, I knew I had to run to the boutique and sniff. It was truly perfect and I took home a small bottle haha (will be eating ice cubes for dinner..)
@@Persolaise Indeed, Ambre Nuit 125 ml was 180€ in 2020, now it's 265€. Guerlain l' Art was 295 for a 100 ml bottle in 2021, now it's now it's 335€. Sadly the only thing that has not increased that fast is my salary, so now I'm buying only decant lol.
I had a smell of this yesterday. It was almondy, airy with a certain dryness. Didn't last on the skin and not a love for me. The price tage makes it very prohibitive as well. Thank you for the review
Our anniversary was a few days ago, and I asked my husband for Le Lion in order to have the pleasure of smelling it on him 😂 (I’ll wear it sometimes, too.) What a fabulous perfume!
Smelled Comete yesterday at a Chanel event in Singapore… Comete to me is heliotrope forward and isn’t as complex as say, Le Lion. It reminds me much of Teint de Neige EDP… Which is more complex and texturally denser in a lovely way. The challenge I have in particular is given it’s high price point, I am happier with Teint de Neige EDP
Ahh you took the thought out of my head! This should have been a edp and a edt! I’m tired of not being able to afford them…as $175-$200 is my ok zone 😅
I’m curious to test this. I have Boy and Beige which I like very much and they really last well. Misia was on my shopping list for my next purchase. I am very much a Chanel perfume customer. Crystal Verte is a favourite summer. fragrance and Allure Sensuellle steps up to the plate most other times although I'm not averse to Coco Noir either. I recently bought Baccarat Rouge and bitterly regret it. Stupidly I was in a hurry and instead of leaving it to decide after a few hours I bought it in haste. It now languishes in a cupboard still it's cellophane packet where I imagine it will stay gathering dust!
Interesting on the price point, I still have my bottle of Cuir de Russie Parfum that I paid €224 for in 2004, in the Rue Cambon shop. I dread to think of the current price. I bought the EDT to layer with it and I think it was around £115 around the same time.
Smelled this in the boutique the other day in the US. Not sure at first though thought it was interesting but as the day wore on I found myself sniffing my arm. My normal leaning is more of an incense or Oud but I actually like this. Price for the small is $325 USD, larger size was over $500. To me this is overpriced though lovely.
IMO this perfume is a Masterpiece. 405 Euro for the big 200 ml- Bottle is pricey but for me, it is worth the money. Great on its own but also good to combine(layering) with other perfumes, for ex with No.5 EdP (or No.5 extrait).
I just bought comete today to wear at my wedding next week. the word “stardust” made a positive effect on me when I was not so sure to choose it for the wedding♥️ would you please recommend a parfume for my boyfriend to wear at the wedding? couldn’t decide anything yet ^^ The wedding will be on the beach🌺
"Do you really think a scent called Comet will be an animalistic, hairy chested leather?" 🤣 I personally agree, I think Comet would have been a good addition to the normal perfumes. There are some scents that are a bit different but still have mass market appeal (like Narcisso Rodriquez for her) and I think Comet would've been one of them. I also think the name is brilliant.
My only complaint with an Exclusifs offering is the performance of Coromandel. I quite like the scent, but find the projection, sillage and longevity to be woefully lacking. For these prices performance should measure up to the price. Next time I'll opt for Xerjoff's Richwood.
Hi there 😀 I was one of the first to have reviewed this one! Well to me it's a very mediocre scent by Chanel 👎 and I don't get why Chanel don't dare to release a new male fragrance at last! 🤔 And despite all your effort to describe the beauty of this fragrance it's a very mediocre release 👎 maybe Olivier polge has some lack of inspiration? Plus they call this a unisex fragrance but to me it's just a very feminine fragrance! Cheers mate 🥂😀
Shocking number of comments are about the price ~ I agree with your response that something will probably give soon. It does sound beautiful though~love a good floral, especially if its abstract. Maybe if they offer it in 30ml.
I truly dislike their selection for men. I owned every single one (got them as gifts, bought them on a whim etc etc etc). I truly dislike Bleu and Egoïste....Allure's too tbh. My favorites are Coco Noir and N° 5. Depression, headache, migraine - I can wear N° 5. Always.....and any occasion ❤
I usually treat myself to an exclusiv when I travel. This time I hoped to buy Comete but at £175 I declined. Prices are crazy and while I adore scent, this is too much
It smells beautiful and I would like to have it, but I won't buy it because I think it's a gross exaggeration, such artificial divisions of people, because someone can buy something and others can't, it's disgusting, I'm not sure if Coco wanted such divisions
@@Persolaise oh in your video you said what if someone made a “Bree scent” For a summer scent. Is there a preference between •Neroli Plein Sud •Neroli outre Noir / Guerlain Iris extrait Les Abstrait Belle Ame
@@mattl7424 Ah, that may have been a silly joke about cheese scents (ie brie). As for summer scents, I would say the decision has to be yours. I enjoy Neroli Plein Sud and Belle Ame.

I’m glad you agree that there’s much to appreciate in Comète.
Agree on the smaller size option. It may even increase the number of purchasers

Not to worry 😊

Random cherry blossom note? TF has had so much success with cherry notes, maybe Chanel thought “why not” !
Cherry blossom smells more like salty apple than actual cherry
Well, TF went more for ‘cherry’ than ‘cherry blossom.’ I suspect its role here is to act as a link with the heliotrope.
