N°5 Eau de is a bold expression of character and individuality—an iconic scent reimagined with striking clarity. This woody abstract floral composition reveals a powerful, textured interpretation, inviting you to experience N°5 from a fresh perspective.
Reintroduced in a refined bottle inspired by the original 1924 design, the presentation is minimalist and elegant. Clean lines and a pared-back silhouette highlight this distinctive vision of N°5, allowing the fragrance itself to take center stage. The composition opens with a luminous floral blend of rose, jasmine, and ylang-ylang, enhanced by the signature sparkle of aldehydes. As it develops, sandalwood and vetiver bring warmth and depth, adding a smooth, woody dimension that enriches the floral heart. In 1921, Gabrielle Chanel entrusted Ernest Beaux with creating an unprecedented “woman’s perfume with a woman’s scent.” His innovative use of aldehydes gave rise to N°5 Parfum, a fragrance that would become legendary. Just three years later, in 1924, a woodier reinterpretation emerged: N°5 Eau de Toilette—an enduring symbol of modern elegance.
