Powerful top notes, dominated by Ylang-Ylang and Neroli, are intensified by aldehydes. The alchemy of Vanilla, Vetiver and Sandalwood create a warm and vibrant 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 her with a visionary composition that made unprecedented use of aldehydes. Mademoiselle chose the fifth sample of the fragrance, and decided to name it simply N°5. In 1924, she launched the N°5 eau de toilette. ART OF PERFUMING The eau de toilette comes in a spray for more generous use, with smooth and supple application on skin or inside clothing. To revive the notes of the fragrance throughout the day, the refillable spray is a practical travel format you can slip into your purse and take with you anywhere. A complete perfuming ritual for the bath and body is available to enhance the scent trail of the fragrance. A refill is also available.
