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. For this new fragrance, she opted for a bottle with a radical design, adorned with a white label and topped with a faceted cabochon. The unprecedented scent of the fragrance, along with its simple name and bottle, revolutionised the history of perfumery. N°5 has become a true cult fragrance.
N°5, the very essence of femininity. A timeless, legendary, aldehyde floral bouquet. Composed using raw materials of the finest quality, the parfum is the most precious form of the fragrance. It is housed in an iconic bottle with a minimalist design, hand-sealed with baudruchage, and topped with a faceted cabochon.

The actress shares her first impression of the House of
CHANEL:
"I've always been fascinated by the House of CHANEL. It is
something I've always dreamed about. It is hard to describe a
dream that comes true. The House has a gift of wonderment
and thus a gift of filling us with wonder and awe."
