At the time I couldn't have cared less that it was a dupe for a Chanel polish, I haven't paid them much attention since wasting my money on Rouge Noir, when I was a young, impressionable 20 year and it killed me to hand over £11 (which is what it cost at the time - can you say mark up?!), only to see it chip a day later. Now can you say pissed?!
Anyway, despite ignoring the buzz on this 'must have' dupe, Dusky Mauve ended up in my basket during a visit to Superdrug one evening but was cast aside and now over four months later I've finally pulled it out for a closer look. Surprisingly it doesn't look as 'blah' as I thought it would. It's a smart, sophisticated shade that's work-friendly and actually looks alright in natural daylight, but looks crap and bland in dull lighting.
4 beauty lovers have sumthin to say:
I have this polish, but have never used it! I ought to at least give it a try - that's my task for tonight! I'm totally with you about Chanel; I have bough 2 of their polishes in the past and had Rouge Noir given to me as a present. I got rid of all of them as I have never had worse wear from a polish brand, Unbelievable that they still get away with charging £15 and people seem to love them...maybe they last longer on other people!x

Chanel polishes have had a mark up indeed! arent they 16 quid now?? Those were the days eh...
@StellieStellina - Yeah, try it out and see if you like it. Chanel polishes are rubbish, it's the name that indulges people!
@Imo - Hmm something silly like that. I don't pay them any mind whatsoever.
I hate these sort of purpley colours on me.
Lol I also wasted my money on Rouge Noir as a teen and I still have it! It chips like a mother and there's so many dupes out there but it just felt good to own a bit of Chanel. Sad I know! xx
