Are you talking about Fraicheur np? I was told by Chanel US CS yesterday that it was never available. It was put up on the web site as Out of Stock. They say it is listed as a fall item for them and they are not sure why it's even appearing on the web site yet. Personally I think that means it will be available very soon unbeknownst to them, but who knows. In any case I do not believe anyone missed it, and from everything I've read so far it's going to be perm, not LE, so not to worry.
Yes. It still appears and remains designated as OOS on the Chanel web site. I've observed that many Chanel LE designated items hang around for quite some time and have even make re-appearances. Thanks for the additional info, Win!!!!!

I see the green one (Chance Eau Fraiche) on the US web site and it looks like the peachy colored one (Chance Eau Vive) is actually the newest one? I really don't follow fragrances as...yep, they bother my rosacea. But in any case...no green np on there at this point.

Edit: Chanel.com CS just told me Fraicheur np will be available at dept stores, online, etc at the beginning of August.

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!

its a Jade repromote/rename!!!!!!

you guys thats like the holy grail of ALLLL TIMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

i die i die i die i die!!!!!

i thought it looked lighter
I doubt it's the exact same color as Jade. If it was why wouldn't they have called it Jade and given it the same number, especially when Jade is still so sought after? Have you seen any side by side swatches? I have Jade so will compare side by side if no one else does by the time I get Fraicheur.

I agree with you, I'm not sure they are twins . Fraicheur has chanel hidden shimmers, like a light blue perlage. It's a lovely shade that needs more brushstrokes to get full coverage, but I think it's a tad yellower, greener than Jade (judging from internet pics since I don't know Jade)

I totally remember the Vamp craze, and that was long before IG and the Internet lol! For some reason I recall Faye Dunaway being associated with its launch
