N°5, the very essence of femininity. An aldehyde floral bouquet. A legendary, timeless fragrance that comes in a refillable purse spray that you can take with you anywhere.
Composition:The eau de toilette is inspired by the perfume with which it shares its aldehydic floral signature. This floral bouquet composed of may rose and jasmine features bright citrus top notes. The aldehydes create a unique presence and the soft touch of vanilla an incredibly sensual trail.
Inspiration:In 1921, Gabrielle Chanel asked Ernest Beaux to create "a woman's perfume with a woman's scent", rare and powerful. The nose presented him with a visionary composition that made unprecedented use of aldehydes. Mademoiselle chose the fifth sample of the fragrance and decided to simply call it N°5. For this new fragrance, he opted for a bottle with a revolutionary design, adorned with a white label and topped with a faceted cabochon. In 1986, Jacques Polge, the nose of CHANEL since 1978, reinterpreted the composition of his predecessor to create a more complete facet of N°5: the eau de parfum.
Art of perfume: The eau de toilette comes in a spray for a soft and flexible application on the skin or inside clothing.
To revive the fragrance notes throughout the day, the refillable spray is a practical travel format that you can put in your bag and take with you anywhere. A complete bath and body perfume ritual is available to enhance the olfactory trail of the fragrance.
