Chanel No. 5 is more than just a fragrance. Nothing speaks to class, sophistication, and exquisite taste quite like this little bottle, created ninety years ago. Its charm, combining a multifaceted scent, Parisian style, and uncompromising quality, is timeless. Throughout all these years, Chanel No. 5 remains one of the best-selling fragrances in the world, continuing to highlight the complexity, elegance, grace, and strength of a woman, her indomitable beauty, and intellect.
Once, Coco Chanel asked the renowned perfumer Ernest Beaux to create a fragrance that smelt like a woman. In 1921, the classic and exceptional Chanel No. 5 was introduced. The composition of the fragrance is incredibly complex, sounding intricate without the dominance of individual notes. In creating the scent, Ernest Beaux was the first to use a synthetic component – aldehydes. The fragrance opens with a combination of bergamot, neroli, aldehydes, and ylang-ylang. At its heart, there are notes of lily of the valley, jasmine, and May rose. The composition concludes with notes of vanilla, sandalwood, amber, bourbon vetiver, and patchouli.

I bought it a month ago and patiently waited for the moment when Red Moscow would become Chanel. But it didn't happen. The initial scent is strong and heavy, but then it doesn't develop, no jasmine, no lily of the valley, no citrus. Complete disappointment, even though before ordering it here, I tried wearing this fragrance in a well-known chain of stores. It's different there, real, maybe...
