7 REASONS WHY CHANEL CHANCE IS YOUR BEST FRIEND

For every look, I have a perfume. Call it a luxury problem, call me a snob; I just find it absolutely necessary to complete every outfit. A heavier perfume for the evenings, a floral one for the picnic on Sunday afternoon, and then you have Chanel Chance. I think it fits within the category of ‘always good and particularly nice’. It had been pushed a bit back in my perfume wardrobe, but I have rediscovered it. We had lost sight of each other for a moment (oops), but we have breathed new life into that friendship and true friendship never fades. That much is clear, because…

…It brightens up every moment

But really. Bad weather? A spritz of Chance and the sun shines. A huge hangover that you can't seem to shake off? Boom, grab Chanel and you really start to feel better. And I haven't even mentioned the moments of salary negotiations, work meetings, and bad news conversations. Although those can't really go wrong if you already put on Chance beforehand.

…It's the beginning of a great love

You usually start with the scent. It's lovely. But there's more. You have a shower gel, a deodorant, a body lotion, the scent itself, and a hair perfume. It's just a total family. So you start with a girlfriend but get the whole family with it. And how nice and lovely that family is! You can bet that this relationship will never end.

…You have hair perfume

So I really think I deserve to dedicate a separate section to that. Enormous luxury, but when you spray such a fragrance mist over your blow-dried hair with a sultry swing, you feel like the queen of the ball. And as a result, you shake your head all day to let your hair dance so that a lovely scent emerges.

…You can handle summer

There is a vigorous shake of the head when you talk about scents and summer. Now you have to make an exception for some, because with Chance you can handle summer and banish any sweat from your body. Just choose alternatives and go for the body lotion as a base (immediately well-hydrated and super smooth soft legs) and a hair perfume. Yes, there you have it again. And after dedicating three sections to this, you understand that it is an enormous must.

…You have the most beautiful bottles in your cabinet

Those glass, round bottles, with a charming cap, matte front, and soft pink hue. You want those. They look great on your bathroom shelf.

…You carry happiness with you

It probably won't surprise you that the series Chance by Chanel was created for a reason. Gabrielle Chanel also had her lucky charms, and everything is based on that. You know that the four-leaf clover was a lucky charm of Gabrielle. Extremely rare and not only the meaning of luck but also of a passionate life. Then we have the lucky grain: the symbol of abundance and generosity. Because Coco Chanel was born under a lucky star, she loved to collect the different ‘lucky charms’. She was very superstitious. So you just spray happiness over yourself when you have this scent in your home. It can't really go wrong, you would say.

…You are one of them

The girls who got to jump in the Chance commercials are always cheerful girls. Think of a Lieke van Houten (was the face of the Prada campaign, worked with Steven Meisel, and walked A-list fashion shows), Romy Schönberger (hello Dutch pride again!, and coincidentally also an amazing top model for brands like Michael Kors and Fendi) and Rianne van Rompaey. All Dutch pride. And so are you, so spray that Chance, the top model life is near. And otherwise, at least you go through life cheerfully and whistling.
