The Story

Launched in 2019 by Chanel, Gabrielle Essence is a Floral Woody Musk fragrance for women crafted by perfumer Olivier Polge. The composition opens with bright citruses and fruity notes like peach and red fruits, creating an uplifting freshness. This vibrant start gives way to the heart of white flowers, tuberose, jasmine, and orange blossom, which adds a lush, floral warmth. The base notes of coconut, musk, sandalwood, and vanilla offer a rich, enveloping finish that grounds the fragrance in sensuality and depth.

Application Tips

Apply one or two sprays to pulse points — Gabrielle Essence develops best close to skin. The fruity-citrus opening is bright but fades after an hour, so allow time for the floral and woody base notes to fully bloom. Ideal for daytime wear when you want a fragrance that evolves gracefully throughout the day.

The story behind the bottle.

The quiet confidence of an afternoon spent lounging on a sunlit terrace, where the crispness of citruses blends with the lush sweetness of white flowers and musky warmth.
