Advantages: A very sexy, sophisticated fragrance that will drive your man wild with desire

Disadvantages: You might attract a few horny chaps that you'd rather not!

Please note that this opinion is about Chanel Coco Mademoiselle and not the original Coco perfume - that the picture shows.

Whilst out doing some Christmas shopping I was offered a free sample spray of Coco Chanel perfume. Upon returning home I thrust my wrist at my husband to get his opinion and mentioned to him that I wouldn't mind a bottle as I quite liked it, knowing that he was shortly going away on business to Bahrain I hoped that if I hinted heavily enough I may wake up on Christmas morning to find a bottle in my stocking.

A few weeks passed and I thought no more of it, however, on his return from Bahrain, just before Christmas he came through the door laden with bags, one of which he offered to me. Inside was a beautifully wrapped present, just the right size for a bottle of perfume. As you can imagine I was delighted, and despite the fact that it wasn't quite Christmas he said I could have the present as a welcome home present, (of course I argued)!!! Anyway, I excitedly began ripping open the paper to reveal a predominantly white package, (if you have ever seen Coco Chanel you will know that it is packaged in a brown box), I was initially a little bit disappointed that I hadn't got my Coco, however that soon changed when I took a closer look to discover that he had indeed purchased me a bottle of Coco Chanel, only it was a new Coco fragrance called Coco Mademoiselle. I was obviously delighted to have received such a lovely present but at the same time as it wasn't the same fragrance that I'd sampled I was slightly concerned that I wouldn't like it, to find out whether I did or not you'll have to read on!

Coco Mademoiselle is packaged in a rather classy looking white cardboard box with gold trimmings and the familiar Chanel signature and product information written in black text across the front of the packaging.

The perfume itself is packaged in the familiar square shaped bottle which is fa
mously associated with Chanel perfume products, and is sealed with a square shaped frosted glass pull off lid., which once removed reveals a gold coloured push down atomiser spray button.

The bottle itself is quite plain and contains only a small frosted plaque, outlined in gold, which simply contains details of the product name and manufacturer, however despite being plain it looks very classy and has a very sophisticated image.

Well, you now know that it looks classy and sophisticated but does it smell as good as it looks?

I'm happy to say that it does. The scent has been created using mandarin and orange blossom, mixed with jasmine and rose petals along with patchouli and vanilla. When combined these ingredients create a truly wonderful light, fresh, spicy, oriental aroma which can only be described as incredibly feminine, deeply sophisticated and very, very sexy, this scent will delight your olfactory glands and send your libido wild.

Whilst the fragrance is quite light, it is still relatively strong and therefore one small squirt is quite enough to emit a very powerful but subtle long lasting aroma.

I have to say that I was initially extremely worried that I wouldn't like this perfume, but I was pleasantly surprised - in fact in hindsight I would say that I prefer this perfume and would even go as far as to say that it is much better suited to me than the original Coco which I was hoping for.

Coco Mademoiselle is available from most department stores and larger chemists such as Boots and retails for around £45.00 for a 50 ml bottle of Eau De Parfum, there is also a 100 ml size bottle of EDP and a 50 ml ' 100 ml sized bottle of Eau de toilette.

If you are looking for a new fragrance but don't want anything to expensive, or too heavy then I would highly recommend that you check this out as it is a highly sensual, long lasting, deeply sophisticated perfume that will suit many peo
ple and it's sure to drive your man wild and boost your sex life too.

Thank you for reading.
