Bottega Veneta vs Coco Noir

The Bottega Veneta fragrance community is divided between nostalgia for the beloved discontinued original line and cautious interest in the new 2024 collection. While the new fragrances are well-regarded for their quality and uniqueness, customers resent the discontinuation of iconic scents and steep price increases, viewing them as driven more by packaging than fragrance innovation.

The r/fragrance community loves Coco Noir's beautiful, mysterious scent profile and versatility, but is significantly disappointed by its weak longevity that falls short of Chanel's reputation. Multiple users report the fragrance lasting only 2-3 hours despite being a prestige brand, with some noting even Chanel boutique SAs compensate by double-spraying samples, making it a poor value despite its elegant composition.
