N°5 Eau de Toilette

Fragrance Family: Floral

Scent Type: Powdery Floral

Key Notes: Aldehydes, Jasmine, Neroli, Sandalwood

Fragrance Description:
In 1921, Gabrielle Chanel asked Ernest Beaux to create “a woman’s perfume with a woman’s scent.” Beaux 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, a warm, bright version of the now and forever fragrance.

COMPOSITION
Powerful top notes, dominated by Ylang-Ylang and Neroli, are enhanced by aldehydes. At the very heart of the fragrance is the fullness of a magnificent Floral accord with Rose and Jasmine. A base of Vanilla, Vetiver, and Sandalwood create a warm and vibrant trail.

HOW TO APPLY
The Eau de Toilette comes in a spray format for more generous use with smooth application on skin or clothing.

How to Use

Suggested Usage:

• Fragrance is intensified by the warmth of your own body. Apply in the creases of your knees and elbows for a longer-lasting, stronger scent.
• After applying, avoid rubbing or dabbing skin. This breaks down the fragrance, causing it to wear off more quickly.
• If you prefer placing fragrance on your wrists, be sure to reapply after frequent handwashing, as this tends to rinse off the scent.
• Replace fragrance after 12 months. Expired perfumes more than a year old lose the integrity of the original scent.
