N°5

N°5 by Chanel is more than a fragrance—it is a timeless masterpiece and a symbol of feminine allure and sophistication. Created in 1921 by legendary perfumer Ernest Beaux at the request of Gabrielle “Coco” Chanel, N°5 broke all conventions of its time and redefined what a woman’s perfume could be. It was the first fragrance to feature a complex composition using aldehydes, elevating perfumery into the realm of modern art.

At the heart of N°5 lies an exquisitely balanced bouquet of May Rose and Jasmine from Grasse, wrapped in soft notes of neroli and ylang-ylang. The aldehydes lend an airy brightness, while the base of sandalwood, vanilla, vetiver, and musk creates a sensual, lasting trail that lingers with quiet confidence. The result is a fragrance that is abstract yet deeply personal, both powerful and delicate.

Presented in its minimalist, instantly recognizable glass bottle, Chanel N°5 is not just a fragrance—it is a cultural icon, worn by generations of women who embrace elegance, independence, and timeless style. From Marilyn Monroe’s famous tribute to its unforgettable scent to its enduring presence on vanities around the world, N°5 remains the ultimate expression of luxury and femininity.
