Writing a review for this perfume makes me a bit nervous, though not nearly as nervous as I felt trying it on for the very first time in a department store. I felt as though everyone was watching...

Sublime. Soft, clean, warm at its heart, almost a skin scent but with a sexy and elegant powdery-cool sillage (yes, warm AND cool, it's complex!). In the past, I had not been able to appreciate...

I don't care for this, but perfume is so personal. I do love the bottle and I would love for someone to ask me what perfume I am wearing and reply, "It's Chanel Number 5". Sadly though it's too...

I cry when I smell this. It reminds me of my mother, beautiful and confident and it reminds me of how much I miss her. This is a scent I will always associate with her. I can't wear it, its...

I went to Chanel today to get a bottle of my HG "Coco Madamoiselle" and I got some samples in my bag of No.5. I just sprayed some on, and my LORD... EWW! I scrubbed it off! I tried to let it set...

I know that this is a classic and I wanted to love it so bad....but I can't. At least not on me anyway. On me it's sharp, powdery, and headache inducing. Shame - I so wanted to love it.

One good thing about it...you do feel a bit luxurious when applying it. But once I smell it I have to scrub it off. It's too strong for me and I don't favor the smell at all. Too bad.

I tried the original. I wanted to like it. Sometimes it smells like an old lady. I do not think it works with my body chemistry. And it gives me a headache. It so sophisticated on others. I heard...

I know it's a classic, and I wanted to like it, but to me it smells awful! Like baby wipes or something. I like the bottle though.

Love it! It's a favourite for me. To me it smells like powder. It's got a very Unique scent that I would be able to pick out right away from any other thousand perfumes. It's different and...

I like it but I don't love it. It's a legend and I respect it for that. I like to wear it sometimes, but longevity is poor. Scent itself is classical, flowery with too much aldehyds... I like Edp,...

I love this scent, although sometimes, (I know this sounds strange) I think it smells like baby wipes!! Lol... A few hours after putting it on, it seems to morph into a muskier scent- I think it...

I really wanted to like this. I know it's a classic, & Marilyn Monroe wore it. I love the bottle too. It just does not smell good though. It's supposed to be sexy, but to me it's anything but. It...

Honestly, I didn't really like this scent. It doesn't make that big of an impact. It's agreeable, a womanly scent probably best worn to a fancy dinner, or a big formal event, but it's somewhat...

i tried the tester version (Luckily I did) I hated it. It reminds me of cheap washing liquid used in public toilets. I can't believe how people can put it on as their 'scent'. Oh and the one i...

I personally don't like this frangrance at all and never have. It's a classic and I love the Chanel brand so I've tried to like it but I just don't.

First, let it be known that there are differences between the Parfum, EDP, and EDT beyond concentration. They are actually different scents, reformulated throughout the years. Parfum is the 1921...

Classic and quite controversial! It seems that most people love or hate this perfume, but I am one of those people that fall in the middle. I do notice though that it has grown on me, so perhaps...
