Chloé has added two new fragrances to the Atelier des Fleurs collection, Santalum and Violette, bringing the total in the series to 17.
[Santalum and Violette] are formulated with 100% natural-origin raw materials, natural alcohol, and water – all high-quality materials selected with care. Vegan and free of artificial colorings and filters, each scent is perfectly aligned with Chloé’s commitment to reduce its environmental impact. [...] The design has been created in a more responsible way thanks to the use of lower-impact materials: 15% of the glass from the bottle and 40% of the paper from the box are made from recycled materials.
Santalum ~ "To compose her velvety, rich scent, Marypierre Julien was inspired by a sandalwood fan that her grandmother brought back from a trip to Australia. She recalls how this precious item would perfume a room with each wave of the hand. Full of woody notes and milky accents, this original fragrance has turned sandalwood into an emblem of sensuality, capturing all of its sweetness, smoothness and timeless elegance."
Violette ~ "Perfumer Fanny Bal still remembers, as clear as day, the moment in her childhood when she became captivated by the violets blossoming in her family’s garden. For Chloé, she has drawn upon this strong memory to create a fragrance that melds powdery notes of violet with a delicate hint of freshness. This composition evokes the scent of recently blossomed petals in nature, as gorgeously discreet as its namesake flower, the epitome of modesty."
Chloé Santalum and Violette are available in 50 and 150 ml Eau de Parfum.

17 in that line alone! I’m old and jaded enough to remember when a house might not even have 17 scents as its total lifetime output. Times have certainly changed.
Indeed. I do wonder if these sell? I have never seen them mentioned here that I can remember. (Or maybe I just don’t notice.)
I’ve gotten decants of several of the early ones from Ebay. The Rose and Neroli ones are nice and the Mimosa one is particularly pretty. I do wish Chloe made it easier to try them. They apparently don’t do samples and I’ve never seen a tester anywhere other than a Chloe boutique.
Thanks Vee…so maybe I really don’t notice. I need a good mimosa too.
I have a FB of the Mimosa — can I send you a sample?
Vee, that would be really sweet of you, I do need a mimosa fragrance!
My pleasure! Email me at vee.is.me dot 8 in gee male
