Chanel - N°5 L'EAU - Eau De Toilette Vaporizer - Luxury Fragrances - 200 ml

Chanel - The Revolutionary Coco

Gabrielle Chanel, a strong and ambitious woman, overturned the women fashion, that was constrained within a rigid social pattern. Chanel the “modiste” didn’t belong to the Parisian aristocracy, nor to the high bourgeoisie, but she managed to make à la page the dressmakers and saleswomen’s dresses even for the rich ladies from Deauville.

She was born on August 19th, 1883, in a small village in the South of France; Coco started out in the fashion industry in 1908, creating hats in Paris and later in Deauville. In the 10s, those cities plus Biarritz saw the opening of her first shops. During the Belle Epoque, women were constrained in rigid corsets and wore pleated, draped and reinforced dresses with petticoats.

Furthermore, you have to consider that the taste of the time imposed an exotic and oriental appeal. It is not difficult to imagine how a fashion style aiming at overturning those rules was considered visionary and impudent at that time. In the same years, Paul Poiret and Mademoiselle Vionnet freed women from corselettes, while Paquin introduced a flowing shape and an Empire style waist.

Portrait

No. 5 The UAE is No. 5 today. A flowery-fresh, vibrant and dynamic, under the sign of modernity and freshness. N ° 5 The UAE is the praise of simplicity. N ° 5 The EAU is pure evidence, right from its minimalist packaging. The iconic silhouette of the perfume is outlined on the cardboard wrapping; inside, a precious case encloses the transparent and crystalline bottle. An essential cap, without any mechanism that alters this impression of clarity. As if the extreme simplicity of the container disappears in front of the content, to leave room for the imagination of the one who will choose this perfume.

Olfactory Atmosphere

Less abstract than the previous ones, the new composition of N ° 5 L'EAU spreads its citrus notes almost like a sun-kissed honey. In the top notes, lemon, mandarin and orange hover towards the sky thanks to aldehydes. In a second moment, the flowers unfold: the rose blends with the impalpable jasmine and a new note of ylang-ylang, more modern than ever. After this floral vortex, an unprecedented vibration is perceived, which comes from vetiver and cedar wood, accompanied by sweet notes of white musks. CHANEL N ° 5 has never been so natural, so fresh.

Inspiration

Today Olivier Polge, perfumer of the Maison CHANEL, reinvents N ° 5, demonstrating how its architecture is impeccable and stimulating. With the same meticulousness as a goldsmith, he thoroughly analyzed the original formula and every ingredient, to understand its authentic role within the fragrance. Olivier Polge wanted to create a new balance, an ideal of freshness. He has been able to grasp, and give back, the essence of his time.

Art of Perfuming

N ° 5 The EAU is worn in all simplicity, without preconceptions. Following the instinct: with delicacy or with generosity, day or evening, for themselves or for someone else.
The ritual? None: No. 5 The UAU is worn at all times.
Spray with a spontaneous, carefree and generous gesture, directly on the skin or inside the clothes, whenever desired.
