Gabrielle Chanel Foaming Shower Gel

Gabrielle Chanel Foaming Shower Gel

I look forward to the accessories of a fragrance almost more than the fragrance itself. I’ve got a big bottle of Chanel No.5 Bath & Shower Foam on the side of my bath and I just like to look at. I’ve noticed that it’s going down by small amounts every so often and I rarely use it (it one of those ridiculous ‘saving it for best’ thought processes) and everyone has saucer eyes when I ask who’s used it. Gabrielle isn’t my favourite Chanel fragrance – I like almost all the others but this is just not for me. But, it’s a somewhat different thing to have a transient dip or shower in it than to commit to a full spritz. There’s something of a soapy, clean smell to it as well which cuts through the solar parts of Gabrielle that I didn’t like in the first place.

Naturally, there’s a body lotion too (and a deodorant) so you can layer your scent if you wish. I think Chanel body lotions perform better usually than other brand ancillaries – they do actually moisturise while leaving a light fragrance trail. It’s an emulsion that sinks in quickly and easily.

If you love the Gabrielle fragrance then you’ll love these too – although it’s billed as a shower gel, I used mine as a bath foam and while it’s perhaps not quite as generous in bubbles, it does just as well. The Gel is £42, the Lotion is £48 and the Deodorant is £38. It’s launching tomorrow (today if you get my subscription email).

    I love perfumed bath and body ranges to layer, extend and enhance fragrances and wish more brands would do them. As you rightly say Chanel are particularly good at these. My favourites are Allure and Coco Mademoiselle! They are a true treat but the bath/shower gels are soo gorgeously fragranced, look great in the bathroom and last ages. They also have a very slightly different balance / blend of notes to the edt / edp which I love..so many ways to wear and explore the scent. I wonder what Chanel will bring us for sshh Christmas..xxx
