Very opulent, very heavy. It has the eyes of the Virgin Mary. Unfortunately, a test convinced me that this fragrance suits very specific ages with a very specific attitude. I used to smell it in a formal work environment where I found myself as an intern, still worn by women over 45, and I just looked at them like goddesses just from the scent. When I went and tried it myself, it was something completely foreign. It binds and restricts by age. That's how I ended up with No19 poudre, which is for all ages, all hours, and I always go back to it.

Προϊόν του 1921 γνωστό κι διαχρονικό άρωμα σαν το Shalimar cologne επίσης παλαιακο του 1925 , αυτά τα δύο άρωματα δε θα καταργηθούν ποτέ, θρυλικά iconic άρωματα. Είναι το αρχικό άρωμα Σανέλ 5 το parfum, δεν έχει καμία σχέση με το πολύ φθηνότερο Σανέλ 5 edp του 1986. Η διάρκεια του είναι άπειρη κι η τιμή του απρόσιτη στο περισσότερα κόσμο.

If it suits you, I think there is no rival. I have worn many good fragrances. No. 5 is among the trio of scents that I always come back to.

Not exactly unisex, this fragrance has a very strong femininity and is quite heavy. Clearly not intended for young women but for mature ladies. It reminds me of the scent of myrrh. The presence of ylang ylang, champaka, and tuberose is very strong, which is enriched here with strong notes of fresh soapiness, and when these subside, it reminds me of baby powder. A classic choice, but I don't think it's the best option for a young woman to wear her mother's fragrance.

Made with love by Coco Chanel in 1918 during the First World War to awaken the senses. A base of patchouli and vanilla, oriental and deeply intoxicating, recommended only for the evening, with high notes of bergamot and jasmine. Amazing, but for ladies, not for young ladies. The latter should try Chanel Mademoiselle, which is more airy and modern, released in 2001. Highly recommended for your evening outing with your little black dress to seduce.

You get this particular fragrance because it is legendary, high-quality, and vintage. Not necessarily for frequent use, but remarkable, wonderful, and unique.
Jasmine, rose, aldehydes (which is why it sometimes smells clean, something the creator aimed for) are some of its characteristics.
Personally, I have been honoring it for a decade now. It is not my main fragrance, I usually prefer something cooler, but every time I decide to wear it, I feel wonderful.

Although I didn't like it at all as a scent, it lasted a long time. I believe it is suitable for ages over 55 at least. It is very heavy and doesn't smell sweet at all, it smells warm, I would say. I gave it to my mom after making the mistake of buying it online and it's 100ml
