Well, the metallic black is a very special color.
It's black so it's a staple, but it's SO beautiful as a discreet metallic, it has serious lasting power and at this price a lot of people like that insurance.
The metallics are beautiful, but not a neutral and may not have the same timelessness.
If you already have a bunch of Chanel staples, then a metallic good be a great choice for you!
