The latest and scintillating fragrance launch from Chanel is an ode to a classic by the House. The N°5 Eau de Toilette is a lilting scent that encapsulates the essence of N°5. A warm and vibrant interpretation of the original fragrance launched by Gabrielle Chanel in 1921, N°5 Eau de Toilette opens with a floral bouquet of rose, jasmine, and ylang-ylang, enhanced by aldehydes, while sandalwood and vetiver lend depth and texture to the scent.
Each fragrance from the House is the result of an exceptional perfumery know-how. From growing perfume plants to crafting the bottle, every step is guided by rigorous skill and an unwavering attention to detail. The House cultivates its own raw materials, distills them with patience, and composes each scent with precision. Every gesture is intentional, mastered, and fully integrated. This rare craft, passed down from generation to generation, gives rise to unique perfumes—expressions of emotion and meaning. These are complete creations, elevated over time and perfected through excellence.
N°5 Eau de Toilette is a modern, abstract floral composition distinguished by its subtly woody facet. The fragrance asserts itself through its elegance and complexity, said Olivier Polge, CHANEL In-House Perfumer-Creator.
N°5 is the first perfume that smells like whatever each person wants. Those who love rose will find it in there. Those who love jasmine, likewise. Those who love ideas – those evaporations of the mind – will find them there too. N°5 is universal – it is the essence of the times.
