I’ve had this bottle of scent for months. It could even be for about half a year while I try to get my head around it. You see, online reviews are almost overwhelmingly in love with See by Chloé EdP, which was launched some time last year (2012) and which was made available here in Malaysia earlier this year. There were some contests and campaigns surrounding this fragrance which might explain the overwhelming love.
You see, I don’t deny that there is a lot to love about See by Chloé, which is also the name of the clothing line that is the trendy younger sister to Chloé. The bottle is adorable. Styled like a vintage bird cage, it is different. There is a ring at the top that invites you to hang this on a branch. Don’t, I implore you. That ring is attached to the cap so hang it up and watch it smash to the floor. So no, don’t. A small attention to detail that I really liked discovering, were 3 tiny “feet” at the base of the glass flacon. They didn’t need to be there, but they were and that is what attention to detail is all about.
However, perfumes are all about scent and scent are very personal things. So if you love See by Chloé, please don’t come and sling mud at me for disliking it. I’ve had months to figure it out 😛
