HeartThe Soul
The story behind the bottle.
Launched by Chanel in 1974 and crafted by perfumer Henri Robert, Cristalle Eau de Toilette is a composition that balances citrus freshness with earthy warmth. The fragrance opens with Sicilian lemon and bergamot, providing an invigorating burst of brightness. As it evolves, the aromatic notes of Brazilian rosewood and oakmoss give way to a subtle floral heart of hyacinth, honeysuckle, and jasmine. The base notes of vetiver anchor Cristalle in earthy depth, creating a scent that feels both crisp and grounded.
Cristalle Eau de Toilette has a lighter EDT concentration, so apply two to three sprays for a lasting effect. The fragrance develops best close to the skin, making it perfect for daytime wear where its freshness can shine without overpowering.
