    Real talk

    Chance has real character. It's aldehydic and powdery in a way that signals 'I know what I'm doing.' Not everyone wants that vintage sophistication, and that's exactly the point.Chance
    Not a crowd-pleaser on first spray. The galbanum demands patience, the iris rewards it, and the leather-oakmoss drydown speaks fluent sophistication. Know what you're getting into.Chanel N°19
