Great 1970's style green floral chypre. Seems to me like the love child of, say, AROMATICS ELIXIR and PALOMA PICASSO, yet it's far more gentle and unobtrusive than these. As such, it's a great...

Coriandre is a bracing green chypre. It starts off a bright, zingy green and quickly dries to an earthy dry green floral with citric overtones. In my opinion it is quite unisex. My partner wears it...

I've not worn many chypres aside from Aromatics Elixir, by Clinique, which my mother loved and so I love by default...but it's rather harsh. I believe that Coriandre is an 80s fragrance, is it...

The first time I wore this I found it all wrong -- loud, aggressive, and heady. But tonight I spritzed it on very gingerly, and then went to a meeting. I was rather self-conscious at first around...

This review is for the reformulated Parfum de Toilette, in the green tin canister. I can't imagine what the vintage/original formulation was like, because I really think this is a wonderful, easily...

Just today, I got a sample of a new fragrance from Chloe (I have to check the name) and it was driving me crazy because my "scent memory" knew this smell. At least on me, this new Chloe fragrance...

I sampled this recently and I stopped in my tracks. Must. Have. Full. Bottle. ASAP! Wonderfully different and right up my alley. Thank goodness it is not a fruity floral. Reminds me of someone...

I just want to say that if you like this product you would give your firstborn for the lotion version, which I cannot find anywhere.

I picked this up over a year ago after writing a journal entry about fragrances from childhood. This debuted in 1973 and I remember my mother wearing it. This is probably why I like forest notes....

This is the perfect cheapie chypre to start out with if you're approaching the genre with a bit of trepidation or uncertainty. Classic in structure, sharp and rounded at the same time with its...

Coriandre is the perfect chypre. I love this type of scent, Halston and Halston Couture, EL Private Collection, Niki de St. Phalle First Edition and M de Molinard are other similar favorites. But...

An oldie-but-goodie from the '70s, a decade that launched many bold and unique fragrances (for better or worse). Coriandre is a very, very dry green chypre that would work on both genders. The...

I love this perfume! Imo it's in the same family as Paloma Picasso and Agent Provocateur. The difference, as I see it, is that PP is more animalic and AP is more rosy. Coriandre isn't strictly a...

Years, ago, I wandered all over a grocery store trying to figure out which lady had this on so that I could find out what it was. It was worth the effort, I've used it ever since. Perfect summery,...

I generally like fragrances that evoke some type of feeling, perhaps it’s a place, a memory, a time of year…Coriandre does this and much more. A few days ago I was at my aunt’s house as she...

I love chypres. I love Coriandre! I got a sample of this fragrance in a swap, and thought: this is it, the chypre I've been looking for. It's soft, fresh, herbal like a really nice smelling skin...

This has been a favorite of mine for years. It's so affordable now, that I'm angry. Too many people may be wearing it too often now (tooooo)! B U T you must love peppery green aldehyde rose...
