Chloé launched Nomade in 2018, a floral chypre composed by Givaudan perfumer Quentin Bisch for a free, traveling woman. Its mineral oakmoss is wrapped in the sweetness of mirabelle plum and the freshness of freesia. Despina Veneti, of ÇaFleurBon, praises a resolutely modern chypre, airy and deep at once, a scent in motion.

Olfastory’s review
Despina Veneti, ÇaFleurBon, November 2018
In November 2018, Despina Veneti, on ÇaFleurBon, discovered Nomade at Givaudan, alongside Quentin Bisch. She saw in it a high-quality neo-chypre, unexpected from a house known for its soft florals, and easy for a man to wear.
She distantly compares it to Mitsouko, without the spices, and to Rochas Femme, less overtly feminine, but judges it resolutely modern. Airy and deep, tomboyish and sensual, it is for her a scent in motion, evoking the changing landscapes of a long journey.
Her only regret concerns the very long drydown, where moss and musk dominate without the fruits or flowers: it is the stage she likes least, and she simply suggests spraying again.
