HEART NOTES: Jasmine, Rose, Ylang-Ylang / BASE NOTES: Iris, Vanilla, Vetiver / HEAD NOTES: Aldehydes, Lemon, Neroli / GENDER: Women / N°5, the essence of femininity. A floral bouquet with aldehyde notes, elegantly presented in an iconic bottle with minimalist lines. A legendary, timeless perfume. COMPOSITION The Eau de Parfum is an interpretation of the perfume with the same unique floral-aldehyde signature. Hesperidia notes enliven the top note of this floral bouquet, which is wrapped around May rose and jasmine. The aldehydes give it a unique presence and the precious warmth of vanilla an infinitely sensual base note. INSPIRATION In 1921, Gabrielle Chanel commissioned Ernest Beaux to create a perfume for women with the scent of a woman, unique and powerful. The perfumer presented her with a visionary composition based on the use of aldehydes, which was unknown until then. Mademoiselle chose the fragrance sample with the number 5 and kept this number as a simple name. For this new perfume, she designed a radical bottle decorated with a simple white label and a faceted cabochon. In 1986, Jacques Polge, CHANEL's perfumer since 1978, presented a new interpretation of the olfactory score, a more lively interpretation of N°5: the Eau de Parfum. THE ART OF PERFUME The eau de parfum in the spray bottle allows a generous application on the skin or on the lining of clothing in a graceful gesture. The practical spray bottle always accompanies you in your handbag to refresh the notes of the fragrance at any time you wish. A complete perfume ritual for the bath and body care refines the aura of the fragrance.
