About this fragrance
Written from the structured record above — note pyramid, accord weights, perfumer credit and era.
Chanel N°18 (1970) is a floral green composition that opens with a bracing quartet of galbanum, hyacinth, bergamot, and neroli—an unmistakably vintage blast of bitter green and citrus. The heart is a complex bouquet: iris and orris root lend a cool, earthy powder, while rose, lily-of-the-valley, narcissus, jasmine, and ylang-ylang add floral depth. The base grounds the scent with oakmoss, vetiver, leather, cedar, musk, and sandalwood, creating a dry, woody, and slightly animalic finish. The dominant accords are green (100%), earthy (88%), and woody (86%), with iris (79%) and powdery (71%) nuances.
This is a fragrance for collectors who appreciate the austere elegance of mid-century Chanel—less sweet, more structured, and deeply rooted in the chypre tradition. It suits those who favor green, earthy, and woody profiles over modern gourmands or florals. Ideal for daytime wear in cooler months, it projects a reserved sophistication. The iris and galbanum make it particularly compelling for fans of vintage Guerlain or Balmain greens. A rare piece of Chanel history, N°18 rewards patience and a taste for the classical.
