Every time I wear it, I wonder why I don’t use it more. It’s a beautiful and luxurious fragrance with a narcissus at its heart. Very complex and it has the richness of an EDP even though it’s an EDT. Chloé Narcisse is demanding on clothes, lasts a long time, and leaves an exquisite trail.
It’s a beast of a fragrance; I love it, although it’s a very difficult scent to come across these days.
I’ve tried it several times at different stages in my life. It’s potent, lasts all day, envelops you, and goes straight to the heart. It awakens the senses and passions instantly.
This fragrance has incredible longevity… although it smells good, it’s not one I identify with.
I’ve had an almost full bottle of Narcisse for years and always promise it will be the last time I use it. It smells of neroli and candied gardenias, excessive and potent. The trail is brutal, lasting for hours, resisting shower water and even remaining on clothes after washing. It penetrates through the pores, saturates the senses until they’re numbed, and makes me feel dizzy, like on a bad trip. This only happens with another perfume: Juicy Couture.
I’ve worn it since I was 15 and have always been drawn to it because it stands the test of time, being from the 90s. I wish there were more fragrances with that intensity and uniqueness that make it so unmistakable. It’s wonderful to feel it accompanying you all day.
I bought it recently to complete my collection because the name sounded so beautiful. Upon application, the initial impact is strong, but it softens after a while, leaving a feminine, mysterious, and long-lasting scent. The best part is that it’s uncommon, perhaps due to the narcissus, a flower that’s hard to find. It has floral and sweet notes with a bitter touch. In short, it’s intense and needs to be dosed carefully to avoid being overpowering.
Chloé Narcisse is winter incarnate, brutally cold; if you’re not careful, it will cloy you. It smells strong and lingers all day. It’s a niche fragrance, so I don’t think it will suit everyone. By the way, someone told me they could detect honey in it; could that be it?
I bought it some time ago at a discount store in the US. I don’t like it; it smells somewhat strange to me, like petrol mixed with flowers, or like ammonia. I can’t quite decipher it, but I tried it on several occasions and am now certain I don’t like it. I’ll give it to someone who might appreciate it.
I own it, but for my taste it’s too strong; I don’t like it much, though on occasion I have worn it, right in the middle of winter when it was very cold.
The only sensation this fragrance gives me is nausea!!! It’s extremely strong, invading everything you wear… May God have mercy on anyone trapped in a lift with someone who has overdone this perfume…
Narcissus, with their peculiar and distinctive scent, so instantly recognisable… Here Chloé presents a bomb of narcissus that initially overwhelms us but settles down after about 15 minutes, thanks to the blend of a creamy gardenia, perhaps enhanced by the combination with vanilla and the sweetness of musk, which transforms that impudence of the narcissus into something more delicate and cushioned, as if made from sugar floss. When I smell the back of my hand repeatedly while wearing it, the image of a cake decorated with highly perfumed vanilla Chantilly cream, its swirls and volutes filled with narcissus flowers surrounding only a central, highly fragrant and creamy gardenia, comes to mind… Definitely for very cold days, as it can be rather cloying. Nevertheless, it is a fragrance I thoroughly enjoy, simply because I love sweet and cloying things.
I can’t find it in Argentina; is it available anywhere? It’s an intense, intoxicating fragrance I bought in 1995 and finally used up in 2012 (fortunately, I have plenty of others). I mention this because the scent remained impeccable, staying completely unchanged for all those years. Whenever I wore it, people noticed it in different places and with various individuals. I take such comments to heart, as I believe they indicate whether a fragrance suits me.
I first tried this perfume in 2001, I was 16. I smelled it on a young woman who entered the shop where I worked and I loved it. Obviously, I asked her about it. For many years it stayed in my mind, but for one reason or another I hadn’t bought it. Last winter I finally took the plunge and I have no regrets; it’s exactly what I remembered. It’s so intense, creamy and warm, ideal for cold climates. It has an immense trail and the scent lasts until the next day without issue. Once I tried using it in warmer weather and NO, it only works in cold climates.
Narcisse by Chloe is the most significant and undervalued fragrance hiding in the remote corners of the fruit-medicine fashion that ruled the first half of the 90s. It is, by definition, one of the most narcissistic and arrogant fragrances Chloe could create, a planetary contrast to their current ethereal, soapy rose perfumes. It’s a halfway point between the nectarine fruits of Lancôme’s Tresor, the overwhelming power of Givenchy’s Amarige (even more aggressive) and the ecclesiastical balms of Estée Lauder’s Youth-Dew. Based on narcissus, which smells halfway between iris and gardenia, it’s a ‘white/floral’ with a modestly tawny tone. It doesn’t suffer from being one-note; sticky fruits, impetuous flowers and exotic balms proliferate. It begins with a creamy, pungent floral opening, opulent in nuance, with dusty and spicy edges (pineapple with violet). Then the narcissus takes over, combining with spicy and enervating ingredients (carnation, spices and calendula residues). Finally, it becomes more balsamic; the narcissus becomes docile and recalls Rochas’s Femme, though darker and sinister. It’s not a carefree perfume, not for everyday wear or in large quantities. It’s brutal in power, surpassing aggression to become indiscriminate, coarse, like beating flowers against the face. It’s a floral KameHameHa, an epitome of ‘in-your-face’ fragrances. It’s majestic and elegant, though not as sober as one might expect from Chloe. Its versatility is questionable; it’s not suitable for summer as you could get intoxicated by it. It’s not the most affordable or popular, but it’s impressive. I don’t perceive it as intellectual as the classic 1975 Chloe, but that doesn’t mean it lacks charm. Its accords are floral, sweet, fruity and balsamic (no wood or vanilla). It doesn’t like to die; it has amazing longevity.
For the Argentine girl, in Uruguay it’s available at a duty-free shop in Chuy.
Narcisse made its mark, and countless fragancies have tried to replicate it. It’s a prime example of the apricot-floral trend with a resinous and spicy base that was fashionable in the early 90s. Brands like Paloma Picasso, Tresor by Lancôme, Nicole Miller and later L’Artisan (Sun Moon Stars) followed this structure, though they leaned more towards water lily with a more prominent pineapple and a sweet-and-sour bergamot contrast. Narcisse is all flowers, spices and fruits, perfectly orchestrated: flowers and fruits shine at the start, while spices and balms dominate the dry down. It’s rich from every angle, balancing flowers and fruits without either eclipsing the other, something Chloe fails to do. Longevity exceeds 12 hours on skin with a visible trail. Even after its reformulation by Coty, it remains spectacular, which is hard to believe given they degraded other classics, but this one was spared. Hours later, it releases a subtle resinous and spicy amber base that accompanies the flowers and fruits sublimely. If you like sweet, full-bodied, strong florals with personality, there’s no doubt you should get this. Its composition is versatile; although it’s a 90s floral, it could easily have been released in the 00s.
I gave it to my mum just in 1992, the year of its launch, for Mother’s Day (in Spain, it’s celebrated on the first Sunday of May). I remember going to Perfumería Prieto in the Nuevo Centro shopping centre, just after lunch on a Friday that week. Immediately, the gentleman who attended to me pulled out several perfumes for me to choose from. With the speed of a gazelle, my nose detected this perfume in an outstanding way. It seemed to me to be that of a woman who was brave and sweet at the same time, elegant, with a very defined personality, feminine, and very far from the average of the other women’s fragrances displayed in the shop windows in 1992; for me, it was different and novel in every aspect. The best of all is that my mum loved it and it suited her perfectly when wearing it; in fact, my sisters would reach for it whenever they had the chance. What does it smell like? Well, to me, it’s a beautiful predominant narcissus over other flowers, not without a green breeze that subtly envelops the bouquet and gives it a sublime touch. I’d be delighted if it weren’t discontinued.
The intensity of the narcissus is brutal, packed with complexity and nuance. While the tawny narcissus takes centre stage, the fragrance goes beyond that; it’s a Dali-esque masterpiece, beautiful yet irreverent and slightly misunderstood. It smells of tawny narcissus, roses, soft carnations, sweet apricots, syruped pineapple, succulent vanilla, pink pepper and precious woods. It’s a bomb that keeps you on tenterhooks, never knowing which note will explode next. Its beauty lies in the complexity, the nuances, the irreverence and the power; Narcisse is unique, just like you.
The first impression is that it’s very strong, but then that intense scent fades, leaving finally a very talcum-like smell. I didn’t like it. It has poor longevity. After reading other comments, I understand that it depends on each person’s skin chemistry.
But what an exquisite perfume! Something strange happened to me with this fragrance. When it was launched, I was very young, and I vaguely remember smelling it among many others and thinking it was just another one… and according to my sense of smell at that time, without having what Poison or Amarige had. After several years, I dreamed I was going to the perfumery and fell in love with this fragrance; I remember the dream with the box and everything. Just like that, I decided on many others until it ran out or was discontinued in my area, and it caught my attention again when I saw some reviews. I ordered it online, and it took a month to arrive; just a couple of hours ago I finally opened it, and at first contact, I fell in love. It’s a sweet and creamy scent, but not gourmand, mind you. It’s sweet floral, exquisite. As far as I can tell right now, the scent remains intact and perfect. I love it.
Marvellous, a sweet cornucopia where the almost faecal tone of the narcissus and the fruit, which is pure pulp, jelly, and jam, vie to be the protagonist. A bookish oriental à la 90s style, very cloying but not sticky. To my taste, it’s perfectly assembled: three tones persist, talking to each other while stepping on each other’s toes: the dirty narcissus, the honeyed and phosphorescent peach and apricot, and the resinous and oriental balsam of Tolu and sandal. Guiding them all is a wonderful, youthful, and dynamic spiced carnation, and finally, musk, woods, and rose to make it talcum-like, not serene. This is devilishly good, like wearing it and at the same time a bit of Caron or Piguet narcissus, a touch of Grosjman, a pinch of Opium and co., and finally an acrid, aged, spicy, and mysterious oriental talcum at 200 miles an hour. If I walk down the street and smell a woman radiating this precious air in 2019, I’d fall off my back. Such things aren’t smelled anymore. It’s so exuberant that if you wear it with colourful clothes, it becomes a caricature; you suffocate it. However, defend it with a black silk blouse or a leather jacket, nothing more, and you sublime it through sobriety, leaving people knocked out. This perfume needs no further adornments because in itself it is pure gluttony, a sin of greed made into a scent that ends drying into a moist, sweet, and putrid ointment that even a mummy would envy for perfuming themselves; a distant relative of Narcisse by Feminité du Bois.
Marvellous, a sweet blend where the almost faecal narcissus battles with fruit that is pure pulp, jelly, and jam. A bookish oriental from the 90s, cloying but not sticky. For me, it’s perfect: three tones at once, the dirty tone of the narcissus, the honeyed and bright tone of peach and apricot, and the resinous tone of balsam of Peru and sandalwood. Guided by a youthful and dynamic spiced carnation, and ending with musk, woods, and rose that make it tacky, not serene. It’s devilishly good, both to wear and to recall the narcissuses of Caron or Piguet, a bit of Grosjman, a pinch of Opium, and a sour, aged, and mysterious oriental talc. If someone in the street smelled like this in 2019, I’d fall off my arse; such scents are no longer worn. It’s so exuberant that with colourful clothes it becomes a caricature, you smother it; with a black silk blouse or a leather jacket, you sublime it and leave people knocked out. It needs no further adornments, it’s pure gluttony, a sin of greed made into a scent that ends in a moist, sweet, and putrid ointment that even a mummy would envy; a distant relative of Bois du Narcisse of Feminité du Bois.
I bought this blindly online after reading reviews, and unfortunately, I didn’t like it. At first, I only smell the carnation, with a slightly sweet and sour note, which must be the honeysuckle, as if you mixed carnation with Chinese sweet and sour sauce. Once it dries, there’s a hint of powdery narcissus, but not the baby kind; it’s a dirty, dark scent. The whole fragrance gives me melancholy and sadness. I’m not sure how I’ll use this bottle; I think it only suits going out dressed in black and for women over 40. If you like carnations, you might enjoy it. Thank goodness it’s soft; it’s not sharp carnation and narcissus, but a more bearable talcum-like scent. It has nothing to do with Chloé’s other talcum perfumes; this is another world entirely. If I’d smelled it in a perfumery, I wouldn’t have bought it.
A truly vintage fragrance, bearing the hallmark of perfumes from the past. I’ve loved it: it’s strong, potent, and unique. Very much a perfume of the 90s, when no two were alike. I like it quite a bit; it’s ideal for cold weather.
The first time I smelled it, I was utterly impressed. I bought it for my wife at every presentation, including the cream and bath lotion; whenever the bottle ran out, I bought another, and even my daughter enjoyed using it. It has a trail of five metres and is long-lasting. What a pity they no longer manufacture it.
I first encountered it through a boss; whenever she wore it, she left a magnificent trail and the whole office smelled of Narcisse. What a lovely and special perfume. It’s very strong, balsamic, with an overwhelming personality… yet very feminine. I believe the power comes from the narcissus, cinnamon, and vanilla. It’s such a pleasant scent that for me it’s addictive: elegant, warm, a vintage worth knowing, owning, and wearing with head held high and stride firm.
I’ve had the bottle almost empty for 20 years and it’s still perfect. It’s floral and very persistent. A micro-drop is more than enough. It’s the centre of attention, very striking and scandalous, as befits a good narcissus.
I’ve had the bottle almost full for 20 years and it’s still perfect. It’s floral and very long-lasting. A tiny drop is enough. Of course, it draws all the attention; it’s striking and bold, just like a fine narcissus should be.
Thank you, Eduardo2! Will it still be available at El Chuy? I don’t think so; years have passed… I still miss it dearly; it’s a wonderful fragrance.
A perfume I’ve just remembered 🥰. It smells of narcissus, gardenias and cedar, a bitter yet attractive scent with good longevity and delicious sillage. It makes you feel like you smell rich and elegant; when you put it on, you feel like a well-established woman, regardless of age, direct and with attractive intelligence 👌🏻😃. I imagine empowered women 🧥👠💄 wearing this. I’m going to look for it, I want it back 🥰🙏🏻😁
For me, it’s a fragrance they no longer make. The longevity, sillage and projection are enviable. It’s a classic that deserves to be known and owned. I’m going to buy it soon as I like it so much.
I love this perfume! Everyone would ask me what fragrance I was wearing. Great sillage and super feminine longevity. What a shame it’s not available in Argentina; I believe it has been discontinued. I still haven’t found another that resembles it.
My perfume from adolescence and youth, one of my all-time favourites. Sweet with spectacular longevity. After searching for it for a long time, I finally found it, bought at a very high price because it was discontinued, but it’s worth every penny. I love Narcisse 😍
1000% in love with this perfume bomb. I first smelled it when I was 12 or 13; it was love at first sight, but I didn’t have the money. Now, at 42, although it’s discontinued, I managed to get a bottle and it smells exactly the same: sweet floral, incredibly sweet. An extraordinary aroma. It lasts for months on clothes and more than 24 hours on skin, even after a shower. What more can I say? ❤️
Hello, where can I find this in Chile? I’ve been searching and it always comes up as out of stock, but I adore it and want to buy it.
The most exquisite perfume that ever existed. There are very few left; I spotted one in Caba but the price put me off. Perhaps next month if it’s still available. I remember the first day: a customer walked in and left an incredible trail; my colleague and I turned around wondering what she was wearing. As soon as I finished work, I bought it and wore it for years until it disappeared. I love it! Nothing compares to it.
Without a doubt, the best perfume I’ve ever tried. Everyone would stop me just to ask what I was wearing. What a pity they no longer make it. Do you know of any similar alternatives?
I found it in Peru! After 30 years, I finally managed to track it down and buy it. I absolutely love it!
I’ve worn this for 15 years; it’s my signature scent with its peach and white floral notes. It was never reformulated, it was my constant companion, an eternal love. I haven’t found anything else that matches its longevity and sillage. If it were a person, I’d give it a hug and never let go. Thank you, Narcisse 🌷 10/10
