I love all of Chanel's perfumes and have all of them. I can't say this is my fav since all of Chanel's perfumes are my favorites. It's just dependent on my mood of the day. This is more of a mature...

Smells like erasers. Why do all of Chanel's fragrances smell the same? They all smell like burnt erasers. I gag when I smell this on people. I know what it is immediately because it...

I love this perfume. It has a very classy, sophisticated smell. When I was younger, I always pictured women in their 30's and above wearing this fragrance. My sister also loves the scent and is...

I know it's a classic but I'm not a fan unfortunately. I have been given Chanel No. 5 EDP as gifts several times over the years but just dislike the smell of it. I'm not generally a fan of floral...

Chanel No.5 is a multi-layered perfume (3 note) that you MUST wait after applying for the alcohol to evaporate and for the subtle subtext of scents to come out. Its top notes include ylang ylang,...

I wish more younger women would indulge in No. 5. It's a strong scent, but very dramatic, and always puts me in mind of Coco Chanel and her world. It's too expensive, but really is a treat to put...

Tried this one today. Only could spritz it on my wrist since they hadn't got samples of it. I'm not sure what to think about it. Guess it could be nice when not overdone. Overall I prefer more...

I don't wear this one as much as some others, but I enjoy having a big bottle of the EDP in my rotation. There is much discussion about the different versions of this fragrance. The EDT and...

I really love the bottle of this very streamlined, the juice different story. I know that this is very classic scent and by power of suggestion (thanks Nic) is the best selling fragrance. I...

I have the EDP (Made in France) and it is gorgeous. The USA version is totally different. More aldehidic and citrussy were as the French version is deeper, muskier and less powdery. I smell...

I've smelled this on the older ladies back in the day and thought it was old, musty smelling. I find nothing attractive about it. But, back then, everyone was wearing it! Or bathing in it, I mean!...

I know that this is extremely popular but to me, it smells REALLY bad. I've tried it on several occasions but it reaks. It's a very pungent and old scent. Yuck!

I have 2 bottles of this--the EDP and EDT. I really, really tried to like it. But it makes me smell like an old lady! At first, it smells really good and exotic, but after an hour I smell like a...

I always wondered about No.5 because of its mythical reputation. Last year I bought the EDP for my grandmother's birthday. The fragrance smelt nice but was much more suitable for an older lady to...

This is probably my all-time favorite perfume. I save it for special occasions. Just such a classic and so flattering. It's the ultimate feminine fragrance, imho.

Very woody and musky. Too dark and brooding for a budding 16 year old like myself.

I was given a sample of Chanel No. 5 recently. It's the EDP and smells better on me now than in years past. It seems lighter, softer and closer to the skin, as opposed to many years ago when I...
