Chanel’s romantic Café Mademoiselle is currently on a world tour. Popping up everywhere from Singapore to London, the cafe has officially made a pit stop to Dubai. Celebrating the launch of its latest fragrance, Crush Absolu, the French atelier took over Bisou at Dubai Opera Plaza, turning the space into a scene from Chanel’s world.
In many ways, the French restaurant was fitting. Centred on the crossroads between French and Middle Eastern cuisine, Chanel and Bisou make for a complementary pairing. With Café Mademoiselle, the eatery turns into a romantic Parisian setting, similar to the one seen in the Crush Absolu campaign with singer Gracie Abrams. The vibe here, however, is noticeably different. With a flower station, Chanel-branded decor, themed drinks, a photo booth, and a personalised fragrance section, this iteration of Café Mademoiselle was here to spotlight Chanel Beauty’s latest launches alongside the wider Café Mademoiselle fragrance line.

Opening to the public from September 12 – 16, guests can have their own turn at trying the spritz. Ambery and sensual, with notes of lychee, grapefruit, rose, patchouli, vanilla, and vetiver, Crush Absolu hits the fragrance rotation with its warmth just as the world begins to turn cold.
