That it is so popular, and that it continues to sell so well… let me share a story from my experience. What is your Chanel No 5 story? Do you or someone you know wear it? What is associated in your mind with No 5?

My own wearing has faded the olfactory distinctness of the memory of my mother in the hallway, bending down, her expression a perfect blend of humor and concentration, the cool touch of the glass stopper, my scent and hers, the same for a moment.

I raised my voice with an, “Actually…” but was drowned out. No one had ever heard of Clive Christian and his silly bottles, or even of Joy. I think that men and women from that classroom are the sort of people giving no. 5 as a gift to the important women they love.

dee: The women that I grew up around are dark, and so were their fragrances—with the exception of my mother’s adoption of Lancome’s Tresor when it came out around the time I was in third-grade; so I had never smelled no. 5 in any incarnation until adulthood. meg jamieson: My first memory of Chanel#5 is like an ad copy; my mother, preparing to go out with my father, pausing to dab just a little behind my ears. Their nights out were as infrequent as the luxuries my mother afforded herself, and I imagine as highly prized.

Samples from my personal bottles: extrait de parfum (review mostly focused on 2007 version), Eau de Cologne (1970s), Eau de Toilette (review focused on 2009 version), Eau de Parfum (review focused on 2009 version.)Star rating: 5 stars–outstanding/potential classic, 4 stars–very good, 3 stars–adequate, 2 stars–disappointing, 1 star–poor. I have always loved smells, and have very, very few which I am not intrigued by. Smells people find gross or pungent don’t strike me that way, and so the farm I grew up on (cherries and apples), the world of cooking my mother inhabited, all of that is intriguing, but none of it meant what perfume meant. And Chanel #5 was my mothers only perfume. Eau Premiere? Are you asking what about Eau Premiere? Mals86 mentioned earlier that it didn’t smell nicely on her Mom and in her blog I read that it smelled like a celeb fruity floral. That’s what it did on me, so that was a no.

The contrast first set in place by the interplay between the sparkling aldehydic veil and the honeyed rose and jasmine notes continues as the fragrance moves into its dark base. The timbre of woody notes, including vetiver and sandalwood, gives a surprisingly masculine facet, which offsets the decadent languor of the floral notes. Vanilla and coumarin envelop the base notes, while plush, rich musks further soften the rough edges. The parfum has an alluring radiant quality, and yet, the sensation overall is soft, caressing and gentle. If you are only familiar with Chanel No 5 in other versions, discovering the parfum will be like finding a completely different fragrance.

The eau de toilette is a vibrant echo of the floral bouquet launched by Gabrielle Chanel in 1921. A warm and bright version of the original fragrance that comes in a refillable travel spray you can take with you anywhere. COMPOSITION When Chanel and all good perfumes became available, I was already 20 and, of course, I started testing them before I could afford them. At that time, although I loved the scent, I could not wear anything close to Chanel 5, as I felt it was much too strong/ bold for me. I started with more neutral, almost unisex perfumes an slowly grew into something more serious. Every now and then I tried Chanel 5 – and it is the only perfume I was patient with, as I usually give up on trying something I don’t like from the first try. This scent somehow stayed with me but was telling me I was still not prepared for it. Until one day, about 8-9 years ago, when I tried EDT again and we fell for each other! I don’t know if my body chemistry changed or just my mind, or maybe I just grew up into the woman this perfume can dress. I am very particular about the perfumes I wear: I like many of them but I cannot wear but a very-very small number of them, as I need to feel them as part of my skin/ body. Less abstract than its forebears, the composition of N°5 L’EAU radiates citrus like sun-drenched honey. Top notes of lemon, mandarin and orange soar skyward with the aldehydes. Like a second wind, you can hear the rustle of flowers. Rose melds with airy jasmine and a new fraction of ylang-ylang, more modern than ever. Behind this floral whirlwind, vetiver and cedar impart a novel dynamism, softened by white musks notes. Never has N°5 been so natural. So fresh. INSPIRATION

I felt so ladylike, spraying on that aldehydes bomb which became a bit soapy and floral afterwards! I used it up and actually never thought about it again.
