About this fragrance

Written from the structured record above — note pyramid, accord weights, perfumer credit and era.

Chanel 1957 is a floral green fragrance for women, composed of galbanum, hyacinth, bergamot, and neroli at the top, leading to a heart of iris, orris root, rose, lily-of-the-valley, narcissus, jasmine, and ylang-ylang. The base settles into oakmoss, vetiver, leather, cedar, musk, and sandalwood. This vintage release from 1970 embodies the classic green chypre style, with a strong green character (100%) supported by earthy (88%) and woody (86%) facets. The iris and orris root contribute a powdery (79%) elegance, while the aromatic (71%) quality adds freshness.

Collectors of vintage Chanel or green florals will appreciate its complexity and depth. The fragrance suits those who enjoy bold, mossy compositions with a powdery finish. It is ideal for daytime wear in spring or autumn, and its leather and oakmoss base gives it a sophisticated, timeless appeal. Whether for daily elegance or special occasions, 1957 offers a true vintage experience.
