Each of us has a unique adventure with N°5. With its iconic, almost cryptic name, it heralded a new era in perfumery. Mysterious and timeless, N°5 is more than just a scent. It represents an olfactory legacy, embodying a distinct vision of femininity and a pinnacle of elegance, cherished and handed down through the generations.
The founding fragrance of CHANEL creation, N°5 has never ceased to inspire the perfumers of the House. Remaining true to its strong inner nature, they have each tried their hand at the same exercise in style, creating their own interpretation.
In 2016, N°5 L’EAU was born, the iconic, newly enchanting fragrance, with floral freshness and unprecedented spirit N°5 L’EAU is an active source of energy and light, and it is an impulsive radiant drop with dazzling citrus, elevated by aldehydes. Then comes a floral swirl of jasmine, rose and ylang-ylang and a dynamic vetiver and cedar.
For the first time in the history of the House, N°5 L’EAU left its historical bottle behind. A drop of life with the grace to settle in this ephemeral new form.
Just for a moment, just as long as this limited edition lasts. Rounded and ethereal in shape and structure, this collector’s bottle is a promise of life. It is small, oval and transparent, resembling a pebble. It is an object to take everywhere and anywhere.
N°5 L’EAU, a fragrance marked by a vibrant woody and citrus signature, stands as the freshest and most contemporary iteration of N°5, exuding a carefree elegance within its coveted vessel.
N°5 L’EAU’s composition is less abstract than its predecessors, radiating with citrus notes. The top notes of lemon, mandarin, and orange are lifted by aldehydes, leading to a profusion of flowers. Rose blends with airy jasmine and a new, modern fraction of ylang-ylang. Beneath this floral whirlwind, vetiver and cedar introduce a novel dynamism to N°5, softened by hints of musk.
Never has N°5 been so refreshingly vibrant.
