Nasty-smelling stuff. I don't know why so many people obsess over it. It really isn't that great. It reminds me of a grandma attending a nursing home's Sunday church service. Too expensive for...

This perfume has a very strong scent that is, unfortunately quite unpleasant. It reminds me of old ladies *hides* It does smell very sophisticated though. Packaging is nothing special.

Classic. And it is so Chanel. You have to keep one in your wardrobe all the time.

Chanel No. 5 is a classic scent but that being said alone does not qualify this as one of my favorite all time fragrances. Yes, it is "old school" but in the best sense of the expression-timeless,...

I probably can't say anything about this controversial scent that hasn't been said before but here is my read on *my* skin: it's a newspaper with a touch of smoke in the background, then a bouquet...

An old fave of mine. I must admit I first tried this as a fan of Marilyn Monroe but I am proud to say I now wear it as a fan of Chanel. It is a classic, sophisticated warm smelling perfume that...

I have tried this in all strengths but the parfum is my favorite when its in my budget. I never fall below EDP. THIS IS NOT A SCENT TO BE SNIFFED OUT OF THE BOTTLE AND JUDGED IMMEDIATELY. I...

I've never been able to like this scent. It's supposed to be a tried and true classic that grandmothers, mothers, and daughters will all love. To me it smells too strong and grandmothery. To be...

I am in the minority when I say, I DON'T LIKE THIS. I have tried to like it, but I don't. I don't see any redeeming features or graces in this. It smells rank. That simple. It's not feminine. ...

My father got it for me on my 17th birthday. It was special because we have a strained relationship, and it's just such a classic scent. I really love it during the winter, especially during an...

I'm 23 and today was the first time I sprayed Chanel No. 5 on myself to actually wear, and not smell straight out of the bottle. I thought it stunk like a funeral home at first but I just wanted to...

I'm so glad that I read the reviews for Chanel No. 5. I always thought there was something wrong with me because I just do not smell the beauty in this. It's nice to know that there are others...

I keep trying this in hope that I'll see the beauty, but the aldehydes just make me feel queasy and uncomfortable. Not a pleasant experience.

Now I know why No. 5 will never go out of style. The scent is ripe with florals and aldehydes. It's fresh and feminine with pure sophistication, like a scent you'd find on a proper, classy woman....

I agree with Lucene about this fragrance. Reviewing this EDP based on the first spritz is what I think a lot of dissatisfied reviewers are doing. I can see how a person would think this smells...

What more can I say than, it's a classic. Generations of women in my family have worn this fragrance. My mum got me hooked on this perfume, only for special occasions though, I'm sensitive to scents.
