41 Events maltatoday, SUNDAY, 24 JULY 2016 Chanel's Allure Homme Sport cologne a timeless modern fragrance CR EATED in 2007, Allure Homme Sport cologne by Chanel is a genuine search of en- ergy that teams the freshness of a cologne with the persistence of an eau de toilette. A timeless and profoundly modern fragrance, the signature of Allure Homme Sport cologne is an olfactory construction in four distinct yet complementary facets that resonate with one an- other. With an explosion of citrus predominantly of Sicilian man- darin, Allure Homme Sport cologne delivers invigorating freshness. The subtle lovage-elemi accord unleashes its bursting, spicy notes to bring intensity and vig- our to the fresh facet of the fra- grance. This accord resonates with the cedar and amber notes that compose its intrinsically mascu- line appeal. Echoing this woody facet, the roundness and soft- ness of white musk add a final sensual touch. In addition to the generous 150ml size, this year Chanel is releasing a 50ml bottle and a 100ml bottle. Chanel is distributed by Alfred Gera & Sons Ltd.
