I got the duo. I haven't actually touched it yet--but it looks like a light peach/pink shimmer and a purple satin/shimmer (which seems to have a slight duochrome effect that Diapason does as well). Don't quote me on anything til I actually try it.
I'm quoting you

That sounds really pretty and fits into the collection more than grey would. Can't wait till you try it!

Hi Michelle!

You need to look under the individual categories on nordstrom.com. The collection isn't shown as a collection yet.
Thanks Gail! Ok, that makes sense. I was looking under collections and didn't see it. On Chanel.com, I didn't see the 2 Rouge Cocos, but I did see them on Nordies.
I am hoping that Dedicace is a blue pink like Joyeuse (since mine broke). I also want that Sonic Pink lip pencil

Have you loved everything you've gotten so far?

I love Melodieuse RA and Murmure glossimer (peachy pink without shimmer). Triomphe RC was nice but the color is very similar to Murmure and I prefer it in the gloss so probably won't reorder (had to send my Triomphe back because of a defective cap). Maybe Elegant can tell you how Dedicace compares to Joyeuse. You can compare her old pics of Joyeuse
with her pics of Dedicace in this thread. I can't get quotes to work right within my post but I'll try separate ones below.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE both lipsticks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The rest of my order looks like it will be here tomorrow. Not sure why they split it up.



^ Dedicace - left, Fougueuse - right



^138 - Fougueuse - Beautiful medium slightly brighter in a good way Pink Pink. It looks bright in the tube & in the swatch but is a true slightly deeper blue pink but it's straight up true Pink Pink on the lips. It has just a tad red to it.




^ 59 - Dedicace - Such a very pretty true medium slight rose pink pink. Really really pretty pink on.




^ Dedicace - left
Fougueuse - right

Ugh, can't get quotes to copy over into this thread. You used to be able to copy and paste. Oh well. Here's a link to the thread where her Joyeuse pic is, so you can just open a second browser window to compare:

Okay, I tried it now. It is really, really pretty. It's like a light pink tinted peach shimmer/satin and a deep violet/eggplant satin/matte. I should have my post up by tomorrow, but it's really beautiful--the colors work together so well.

I think I want either Melodieuse or Fougueuse. Elegant, you have both, haven't you? Where are the major differences between those two?
Sorry I haven't been on.

M is much more coral red (kinda slight strawberry-ish) pink & F is definitely more medium pink pink on with some coral tones & looks different on the lips than in the tube or swatches.

Gorgeous pics! I need to order these! Every time I look on Nordies, I can't find this collection. I must be blind!
I want the glossimers and lip pencil also -- so pretty.
I read your Joyeuse RA broke -- mine did too. The click mechanism doesn't work. Made me so sad ;(
Bummer! I hate that it broke.

You would LOVE Dedicace! Its more of a straight up medium blue pink. I think it fills the missing pink whole that Chanel had in their lipsticks ;)

Hugs!!! So glad you popped in here dear.

Merry Christmas

I also purchased La Diva & L'Eclatante...I haven't tried La Diva yet will tomorrow for church. L'Eclatante is gorgeous. .bright pinky/ coraly color. It seems though that I might have to order Dedicace, the swatches are gorgeous. I do wonder if it's similar to my current favorite, medium face brightening pink..Hourglass Ballerina L/S? *sigh* throws my cc @ nordstrom :(

I will for sure get Dedicace! Do you love the new pink lipliner? I have a few items in my Nordies cart and I'm ready to hit that order button :)

Merry Christmas to you also! I hope you have a wonderful holiday!

Update: Just ordered Dedicace, Sonic Pink lipliner, and Murmure glossimer. Yay! Got it from Chanel.com and they are offering free overnight shipping and the gift boxes. My Christmas just got a little bit Merrier!

I don't come around these parts often because i'm trying to save money (ha, right!) buuuut I can't help myself with this one. I want Charivari, Quadrille, Intonation &Chamade (these will be my first ever cream blushes -- I have been interested in trying Chanel's ever since they came out earlier this year) La Diva & L'Adoree.

It's all so beautiful and elegant!

Also, on the subject of these cream blushes, what brush do you ladies prefer to use?

Oh my gosh -- haha, yes! Free overnight shipping gets me every time. And I love when they offer the boxes. I have a few stacked on my white laquer desk and love they way they look :)

Aww, I'm sure you had fun with the kids -- but hard to have them go!

You picked some very pretty shades. I just pat it on with my fingers, or a flat tapered face brush

:haha: I want to  know what you think of La Diva!!! Ooh, the hourglass ls sounds beautiful!
I couldn't wait till tomorrow to try...lol the suspense was kill'n me, so I just tried it on here's my take: It's buildable, the first swipe didn't provide the full on pink,two swipes later the babies potential showed. It's a bright but safe for daytime lipstick. It's gorgeous & smooth to apply, not at all dry, longevity I don't know only had it on for 15 minutes. Like someone else mentioned this is definitely a mature bright lipstick, not slutty, whorish pink & trust me those are the pinks that I love & hoard. I'm probably sure I have something in my lipstick stash similar, but this is still a welcoming edition. Hourglass ballerina lipstick is Purrfect it's a gorgeous bright but innocent pink & so moisturizing. I have recommended it to a coworker & she loves it. Sorry for the essay but between getting the house holiday ready & sipping Moscato I'm xtra chatty :) Happy Holidays Specktrette :)
