"Chic Mystique" is a song by American disco and R&B act Chic. Written and produced by guitarist Nile Rodgers and bass-player Bernard Edwards, it was released in January 1992 by Warner Bros. Records as the second single from their eight album, Chic-Ism (1992). The song was a number-one hit on the US Billboard Hot Dance Club Play chart, but didn't reach the Billboard Hot 100. It also achieved moderate success in many European countries where it was a top-25 hit.
