The search for the perfect fragrance for my wedding this past March was a difficult one. I sampled an array of fragrances from D&G, Valentino, Gucci, Dior and Givenchy. Nothing caught my attention quite like Chance by Chanel.

Firstly, I was never a big Chanel fan when it came to fragrances. Their fragrances like No. 5 and Mademoiselle were just too strong and reminded me of something my mother would wear. Hence, my surprise and utter delight to discover the refreshingly sweet and utterly elegant smell of Chance. It is sweet - without being overly so - and the smell lingers for days, even when used sparingly!!

This is without a doubt my favourite fragrance at the moment, however I only use it on special days as it is quite pricey.

A total winner in my books and a must-try to all those lovely, elegant ladies out there.
