The House of CHANEL, an international company dedicated to luxury, fashion, style and image, was founded in France by Gabrielle Chanel at the beginning of the last century. Mademoiselle's audacious vision and daring spirit reinvented the world of fashion, beauty and style.
I don't know what it is about this fragrance, but I ordered it on a whim - I mean, who doesn't love Venice? Or Venise? Or Venezia?
Definitely needed something to perk me up in light of some personal life events including the loss of a long-loved doggie. Plan to use this extensively on a trip to Italy in February as I always can tie a certain fragrance to the trip of a certain year. Annick Goutal eau d'Hadrien? 2004.
Regardless, this fragance is lovely and not overpowering. No one has sneezed in my perimeter - always a good sign (I'm looking at you Don Son).

Smells only lasted a second.
Second time that I bought this perfume and I was hopping that the second was going to have a better luck. I gave it another try and what a waste. There will not be a third time.

My favorite of the three
I like Paris-Venise as much as I do the Deauville in the same range. Goes on very bright and citrusy. Slowly develops into those green grassy notes and the interplay of the citrus and the grass was a pleasant surprise. Powdery notes are really really subtle and the best part was the dry down - lush amber and vanilla notes with still a hint of the citrus. Longevity was best out of the three with Paris-Venise.

Beautiful scent but fades quick
This is such a beautiful scent!!! However, the lasting power is terrible. I am extremely disappointed with this. Wish the scent would last all day like my Eau Tendre. Does not live up to the Chanel brand I’ve come to love. Sadly, I will be returning as I don’t see it’s worth the $.

Good for summer
This one, on me, is light and fresh and has a good summer feel to it. The staying power is actually decent on me vs. some of the reviews who had issues otherwise. I'm glad I bought this.

Love This Collection
I love this. It is a large bottle and a light beautiful scent. Because it is lightly scented you can spray all over and not be overwhelmed by the scent.
I bought two different scents in this collection. I hope they keep this. I believe it is exclusive at Nordstroms.

Destined to Become a Classic
I tried all the Chanel fragrances in this collection and this has became one of my favorite scents, I rarely(if ever)like the new generations of scents that are on the market. But this one has a complexity that is evocative of classic French perfumes, while this is not long lasting on me I generously splash/spray it on top of my Chanel No.5 bath oil. I should add that this is not a floral or fruity scent.

Beautiful scent, doesn’t last
Disappointed that it does not last very long for the price. Overall a nice light fragrance, my boyfriend hated the initial application but complemented the dry down.

Such a nice fragrance!
This fragrance is so nice! It’s very light and airy however the reviews saying it doesn’t last long are pretty true. I’ve tried to put a bit of Vaseline on my inner wrists and behind my ear lobes and that’s made it last longer. It’s so lovely though, I’m really glad I bought it.
