Meet Misia, the new fragrance that captures the spirit of Coco Chanel's best friend, confidante, and savior. Part of Les Exclusifs de Chanel fragrances, the scent is evocative of both the Jazz Age and Misia Serb who was Chanel's cohort during the Roaring 20s in Paris and a dedicated patron of Les Ballets Russes. "We looked more into the world in which they developed their friendship," explains Olivier Polge, creator of Chanel fragrances, who makes his perfume debut for the house with this new scent. Vibrant notes of violet, with special Rose de Mai from Grasse, dance at the top, while T Turkish rose and iris hold center stage, followed by subtle notes of tonka bean and Laotian benzoin. There's also a new lipstick called Misia, a subdued shade of coral, in the new Rouge Coco collection.
