Is Fugueuse a true black or does it lean blue or brown?

It is a true black. On the nail it reads as a solid, deep black with a glossy finish, not a near-black with blue or brown undertones.

How many coats does it need for full coverage?

Most users get opaque coverage in two coats. A thin first coat can look streaky, so a second full coat is what evens it out.

Reports vary. Some get several days without chips, while others see tip wear within two to three days. A base and top coat help it last longer.

Chanel markets the formula as strengthening, but polish alone won't repair weak nails. Treat it as a cosmetic claim rather than a treatment.

One 0.4 fl oz bottle of Le Vernis in Fugueuse. No base coat, top coat or tools are included.

The formula and bottle are the same across the line. Fugueuse differs only in being a true black, which shows chips more than lighter shades do.
