I have a stockpile of the original in both the EDP and Parfum versions. I have tried Anarchy and other expensive and not expensive dupes. I burned up the phone lines when I heard that Chaos was re-released. I waited by the door for the delivery, prepared to buy 20 bottles if it was the same. No one was more disappointed than I when I tried it (over and over). It is not the same. It is weaker, flatter and just plain boring. It is not the scent (like the original) that will make men swoon. I don't know what is missing, but they screwed up. I am seeing them show up on E-Bay, as mine will and the prices of the original will remain high. Anarchy is a better version than the new Chaos. Yes, who do we complain to????? Ann Hello Chaos Lovers,

I think it is only common sense that the new release would not be identical to the original because Donna Karan fragrances are made by Estee Lauder and the entire range of Estee Lauder fragrances seems to have been tweaked in the past couple years. There have been many rumblings about newly purchased bottles of Youth Dew, Whtie Linen, Estee, and Private Collections to name but a few. Even Beautiful has received some harsh criticsm, so why would Chaos receive a different fate. I own the original Chaos but I have not smelled the new version.

The new version is wearable, but it's a shadow of its former self, and the special magic is not quite there. I'm glad I never smelled vintage Chaos... one less thing to lament...
