Chanel · Jacques Polge · Floral
At a glance
Created by Jacques Polge for Chanel, Allure opens on mandarin, bergamot, and pineapple, moves through a heart of jasmine, rose, and marigold, and closes on vanilla, sandalwood, patchouli, and amber, offering a warm, sensual amber-floral that became one of Chanel's most significant late-1990s releases, extending Polge's distinct compositional voice beyond the house's earlier aldehydic and green classics.
