«I have chosen the person I wanted to be and I am,» said Gabrielle Chanel, a powerful statement that inspired her namesake fragrance. The floral, solar scent carries in its wake a reminder of the passion and liberated spirit of this remarkable woman, whose bold ambition was driven by unwavering self-confidence. The purest expression of her personality, the GABRIELLE CHANEL fragrance empowers women to choose freedom: the freedom to be themselves and the authors of their own stories.
