I love Chanel No. 5. Even before I could wear perfume, I would just spray this scent into the air and sniff it for fun. Now that I'm older, I can really appreciate the scent. It is sophisticated yet playful at the same time. It is kind of sweet ...

Great smelling; great bottle

None

In my neighborhood Walgreen's are two shelves of perfumes, bottled plainly, with banners proclaiming things like, "If you like Giorgio, you'll love OdorGrenade!" For Drugstore Week, I decided to tackle one of these fragrances.

Gabrielle "Coco" Chanel has requested Ernest Beaux to create 6 perfumes for the designer house. He designed No.1, No.2 etc. to No.6.

Chanel No. 5 was the first smell at which I had the feeling decades ago to be a young but mature woman now. It came added to that that I have got married also young. This probably also played a role here - I seemed adult to myself;-) The smell accompanied me also reconcile year which of later smell...

Absolutely divine and am iconic classic. Perfect gift for someone special, and the gift box is a lovely touch to add a little bit of something extra.

My No. 5 perfume literally spoiled and went sour because I couldn't bear to use it over the course of a few years. What a shame to waste such a pricey bottle of juice. All I can say is I'm one for unique, sexy, and sophisticated fragrances that nobody around me wears or can pinpoint.

This is my go to frag. This smell makes you feel confident and of course you smell great! It last longer then some other fragances. Nothing out there can stand next to chanel

It's fantastic and I wish you had it more often.My sister's favorite and I could never find it so I'm very happy you came through in time for my trip to see her and surprise her with it.Perfumes.com is the greatest! You remembered my request from several months ago.

Clean & Fresh; Draws Compliments; Great Smell; Great Value; Long-Lasting; Not Overpowering

L'Eau is an attempt by Chanel to draw a younger, trendier audience to No. 5 . Although I smell enough of No. 5 on women in their twenties in Paris and notice its constant presence in the top 10 best sellers, it is still somewhat of a cult favorite. L'Eau goes for wider appeal.

Chanel's new No. 5 is heaven sent, or should it be heaven scent. Really a stunningly elegant fragrance that harps back to the classic No. 5 but with a modern twist. Could not recommend enough.
