Thanks so much for your such sweet and thoughtful comment!


Wow how exciting MaryJoe!! Congratulation on your mini on the way!!

I can't wait to see your reveal! I'm sure you'll love this new red mini!

I love your lambskin red mini from 15B

I remember 2015 was great year for the rich Red lambskin!

I love your 14C caviar ML too

14C is such a great red ( we're twinsis

)
Yes, I try again my honest view, To me, this 17B dark red has different shade from 12A in real life clearly. It's difficult to take the shade perfectly by photo and see online though. So their color codes is also different as well if this helps. Since I usually checked the code quickly when I purchased what I love as I also waned to make sure I wouldn't get exact same color for the variety even same red...( sorry if sounds bit crazy....

)
Good things Chanel has each color codes we can see and they sometimes repeats same color over the years as you know ( so I'm hoping they'd bring back 12A red again in near future since I regret I did not get many other style of 12A at that time. ) I attached the tags for the reference and hope that helps
I see 17B has this very slightly undertone tiny bit of dark fuchsia or purplish dark magenta, or dark quinacridone magenta ( only if described by painting material, ) little bit more feminine red, and 12A has also bit more strong crisp Red by transparent effects from material of the caviar. They're definitely different shade in real life in my honest view, but again, as I said I think it doesn't really matter, either ones are very pretty indeed and stunning

Most importantly how we love the Red and enjoy wearing our love of Chanel

And I am so grateful and delighted to meet such a lovely Chanel lover like you here
