Chloé, the Eau de Parfum launched in 2008, marked the house’s return to perfumery with its first pillar fragrance in more than ten years. Michel Almairac and Amandine Marie of Robertet composed it for Coty as an amber floral built around rose, opening on a powdery bouquet of peony, lychee and freesia. Several critics found it banal; the public made it a success and the start of a line.

Damask rose, peony and amber

The house now describes an opening on Damask rose, lifted by a fruity top note, a honeyed lychee. A spring garden of peonies, freesia and jasmine forms the heart; warm amber, cedar and oakmoss hold the base.

At launch, the house arranged the materials differently: peony, lychee and freesia in the top notes, rose, lily of the valley and magnolia in the heart, Virginia cedar and amber in the base. Lily of the valley and magnolia have left the current description, which now includes jasmine and oakmoss.
