Chanel

N°5

Eau de Parfum · Women

N°5 in eau de parfum form is a polished floral built on aldehydes, ylang-ylang, bergamot and rose, with vanilla, sandalwood, patchouli and vetiver underneath. The sparkle at the top gives way to a smooth, powdery-soft floral heart and a warm, quiet base. It is an elegant, formal style of perfume that feels at home at dinners, weddings and dressed-up occasions. A few sprays are enough, and it wears comfortably close to the skin in cooler weather.
