    What do reviewers say about Alessandrite I and Chanel N°22?

    The aldehydes here aren't intimidating. They're the whole point, jasmine caught in that warm, powdery shimmer, bergamot keeping it from going static. Some find aldehydes soapy. That's the appeal.Alessandrite I
    N°22 doesn't do subtlety for the first hour. Aldehydes crackle, florals lean heavy, and there's an austere mineral coolness underneath that some find regal and others find challenging.Chanel N°22
