product information

PRODUCT

Since its creation in 1921, N°5 has exuded the very essence of femininity. The abstract, mysterious scent—alive with countless subtle facets—radiates an extravagant floral richness. In 1986, Jacques Polge reinterpreted his predecessor Ernest Beaux’s composition to create a fuller, more voluminous version of the now and forever fragrance: the Eau de Parfum.

COMPOSITION

With its unprecedented use of aldehydes and layers of complexity, N°5 was the world’s first abstract fragrance. The Eau de Parfum draws inspiration from the original Parfum. This floral bouquet, composed around May rose and jasmine, features bright citrus top notes. Aldehydes create a unique presence, while the smooth touch of bourbon vanilla yields an incredibly sensual sillage.

ART OF PERFUMING

The Eau de Parfum comes in a spray for easy application.

My perfume has been Chanel 5 since I was 16! I am ow 78. I still get compliments too. I just love this scent!
Liz R. on Sep 29, 2025
I received the parfum when I was in high school back in the late 60's from a boyfriend with taste. I have loved it ever since. My late mother had a .25 bottle of the parfum that I now have, thinking of her when I use it. I'd love to see some smaller bottles of the parfum concentration available at some point, since the fragrance from just a small amount goes on and on and on. The eau de parfum also has a lasting quality. It's a lovely, complex, timeless fragrance.

I've been wearing this cologne for over 40 years. It works very well with my body chemistry and the scent stays true. Other colognes I've tried react to my chemistry and the scents change, not for the better. This is my signature scent.

What is the difference between L’eau and Eau De Parfum ?
Tony P on Dec 12, 2023
BEST ANSWER: The N°5 L'EAU Eau de Toilette Spray is a modern, fresh and vibrant embodiment of the now and forever scent. The fragrance features dynamic, crisp top notes of lemon, mandarin and orange that reveals lightheartedness and transparency. The emblematic heart of the bouquet unfolds with rose, jasmine and a touch of ylang-ylang, more modern than ever.

Alternatively, the N°5 Eau de Parfum Spray draws inspiration from the original Parfum. This floral bouquet, composed around May rose and jasmine, features bright citrus top notes. Aldehydes create a unique presence, while the smooth touch of bourbon vanilla yields an incredibly sensual sillage.
