The story of Allure is almost innate for the house of Chanel. Indeed, the entire philosophy of the brand rests on enhancing the allure of those who wear its garments. So it is only logical that Chanel decided to create a fragrance named Allure, intended at first for women, in 1996. Given its success, men then began to envy it, and thus its masculine counterpart made its appearance in 1999 under the name Allure Homme. So, let's take a closer look at what Allure means according to Chanel.
Allure Homme by Chanel is a fragrance that reveals itself as fresh, spicy or woody in turn. It has a gift for revealing the natural presence of the one who wears it, and stands as a perfect expression of masculine charisma and inner strength. From then on, Allure Homme by Chanel possesses an indefinable elegance. A model of balance and harmony, this fragrance radiates an undeniable inner strength. It likes to be noticed without ever overdoing it, and surprises through its presence as much as through its elegance. But what about its bottle? In perfect keeping with the aesthetic of the Chanel brand, its bottle is designed to be as virile as it is refined.
Chanel's square, refined bottle
Let us begin with the shape of this bottle. With Allure Homme, everything is purity and elegance. Thus, no superfluous detail has any place. This perfume bottle displays a square silhouette, while being topped with a small cylindrical cap. Thus, two very contradictory geometric shapes face one another. Yet the harmony is perfect and the magic works instantly. If Chanel chose to impose a cubic shape, it was above all to convey the image of a stable man, proud and sure of himself. Indeed, the bottle of Allure Homme by Chanel seems perfectly grounded on its base. Its heavy, thick glass is firmly anchored to the ground. Its shoulders, for their part, are square and sturdy. Chanel's cap simply softens the whole, as if to reveal the touch of tenderness that lies dormant in every man. It should also be noted that this bottle fits ideally into a man's grip. Vigorous, it asserts its stature and its charisma from the very sight of its bottle.
Allure Homme by Chanel, natural and sophisticated shades
In terms of color, Allure Homme by Chanel perfectly matches the world of the brand it belongs to. Indeed, it combines beige, brown and tobacco, forming a very elegant tonal palette. It is also worth noting that beige was greatly appreciated by Gabrielle Chanel, who used it very often in her clothing collections. It is therefore a nod to the very personal tastes of the brand's founder. The champagne shade of the fragrance, for its part, only amplifies its elegance and its innate sense of luxury. The name of this fragrance appears in a more sophisticated, glamorous tobacco shade. Only a metal ring breaks up this tonal palette. It sits at the center of the cap and allows the Chanel name to be inscribed in relief. Incidentally, it is worth noting that the aesthetic of this bottle is a more virile, natural echo to the lighter beige whole, evocative of skin, of Allure for women, designed three years earlier.
Allure Homme by Chanel comes in three spray bottles of different sizes, 50, 100 or 150 ml.
