Did you know that even high-end perfume houses are diving into the world of all-natural scents? And I don’t mean “we added two drops of flower extract and called it a day” kind of natural. No fine print. No marketing tricks. Today’s perfume is 100% natural, vegan, made with ethically sourced hand-picked organic rose, lemon, blackcurrant, neroli, cedarwood, and mimosa. Its name? Chloé Rose Naturelle Intense.
To be honest, I’ve never been a huge fan of Chloé perfumes. They always bloom on my skin with such intensity that I can’t not notice them throughout the day – and it drives me nuts. I prefer scents that melt into my skin, becoming invisible to my nose while still lingering on clothes till evening. Meanwhile, on my mom? Chloé smells outrageously luxurious. I couldn’t believe we were spraying the same bottle.
So why did I take a blind chance on Chloé Rose Naturelle Intense? I stumbled upon a review of its lighter sister (the one without “Intense” in the name), and these words grabbed me by the heart:
“This is the Chloé for those who hate Chloé. I’ve loathed every Chloé perfume from the first sniff—some almost killed me. But this? This is the only one I truly, genuinely love.”
And another one:
“Chloé has never appealed to me. I even disliked Nomade. But I took a risk on this one. Bought it blind, purely because of the ingredients. And let me tell you: this is STUNNING. Soft, clean, fresh, uplifting, utterly naturelle. It’s a mood-lifter.”
I read those two and… well, game over 😄
Fragrance Notes
Top: Bergamot, Neroli
Heart: Rose, Oak
Base: Cedarwood, Sandalwood
Chloé Rose Naturelle Intense feels like bottled morning dew on a wildflower meadow. Pure green freshness with a delicate whisper of petals it kissed along the way. There’s something beautifully honest and tender about it.
To my nose, the neroli shines in the opening – my favorite part of this blossom. Then comes the rose… but not a heavy, powdery rose. It’s airy and slightly fruity, like a handful of petals you’d want to bathe in. What surprises me is the bergamot – here it leans sweet, almost like a cup of black tea laced with bergamot and honey. The result is a heart-stealing fragrance I wish I had discovered sooner. 💕
Our Thoughts (His & Hers)
His take:
“This is the perfume a woman wears on a date if she wants to leave a lasting impression. It’s the scent you remember for the rest of your life—and always associate with a specific person. Honestly, it’s one of the most beautiful fragrances you’ve ever brought home. Bottega Veneta is classy, elegant, and expensive. But Chloé? Chloé is the kind of scent I want you to wear forever.”
My take:
This could easily be my signature scent. The one I’d happily mist all over my wardrobe—from sunhat to ballet flats. It’s unique, memorable, and ridiculously pleasant to every nose around. I find it seasonless – wearable from spring through winter. In other words: I’ve found the one. 💗
