Thanks for the reply ! If I can get a decent price, I'm gonna go for a bottle = )

Glad I could help a bit. Have you picked up full bottles of any so far? I'm still working off my decants in limited doses. I hope one day I'd be able to own Coromandel and 31 Rue Cambon. Glad I was able to pick up No. 22 before they pulled the original bottles off the shelves and get ahold of a bottle Cuir de Russie extrait hanging around in the back shelf of their boutique.

All I have to say is that they're definitely different and is worthy of the word 'Exclusif' (well, maybe not the Eau de Cologne which I think is a ripoff). Hope you zero in on some favorites.

Yup, I checked the site, and that's the list. Thanks for the info. Now I can get some idea of the composition of the others in this line. For some reason, Chanel has played its cards very close to the chest on these, just hinting at two or three of the major ingredients for each one. Your source cites the New York Times, which is plenty good enough for me! Thanks again for the link.

Hi, I wish I could tell you exactly where I plagiarized the perfumery notes, but the website escapes me. I did find a blogsite that gives fair descriptions of Les Exclusifs in one spot here. Gosh, I didn't even realize they came out with a new one called Sycomore! Off to investigate.

Just curious about your review of Chanel Les Exclusifs Bel Respiro. Could you tell me the source of the hypothetical notes you mention (crushed leaves, rosemary, thyme, rose, lilac, hyacinth, green tea, aromatic grasses, myrrh and leather)? Thanks for any help you can provide!
