It seems all concentrations of No.5 smell different, parfum & edt being my favorite. This fragrance comes from a generation before the "shower clean" scents were the rage. This is stinky in a...

This is archaic and past its prime. Try essential oils or the L'Occitane Gentle Honey Water if you want to feel feminine.

This classic sent never goes out of style. Although a lot of people associate it with an "older" clientelle, I disagree. I love everything about it and swear by it. I'm excited to see the new Eau...

This is my first review. I swore by Chanel No. 5 from the first time I would steal squirts from my mother's bottle when I was sixteen. It was nice to have a signature scent. I was dx'd...

LOVE. LOVE. LOVE. I am 22 and don't think it's too old for me, it's all about wearing it when it's appropriate and with a light hand. Don't spray your whole body with the EDP in the middle of July,...

I always hear people who use and swear by No.5 saying: This is THE parfum and ONLY one for real women. And they are usually "mature" ladies. Enough said. Personally, i dun like the musky heavily...

I personally do not enjoy No.5, on myself or on others. This is not really surprising; I am not a big fan of florals, nor do I appreciate aggressive aldehydes. To my nose, No.5 is a thick old...

This is a classic because it really represents women - strong, sassy, and everlasting. The scent is a bit stronger than others but it smells really nice. When I put it on, I feel more confident. ...

I am in two minds about No.5. I admire it greatly, and I think it is lovely as an eau de toilette and parfum. However, for me it lacks a certain magic that my absolute favourite fragrances have. I...

I've been wearing No. 5 for three years now and this will always be on my dresser. My best friend can't stand the smell on it's own (she says that it smells like old lady)but when it's on me she...

I cannot imagine being without my Chanel No 5. I've worn it forever but can understand why some don't care for it, using too much is overpowering. I think it takes confidence to wear only one or...

My full flacon of N°5 in the current EDP arrived today. Batch number 3805. It smells good and fresh. Starts off with bright alcohol + aldehydes, smelling very fine, with "microscopic...

I love this fragrance and always have but I understand how younger women may not. Like all fragrances, there is a deep psychological component to wearing it. Many of the reviewers are right, it...

It breaks my heart to write this review because I am a hopeless Chanel fan, and No.5 is the most famous product of the Chanel bunch. However, I just can't bring myself to fall for this fragrance....

Overrated? I would like to think so. Although many women like this scent, many women don´t. I guess it´s a classic because it´s been around for so long and for no other reason. I don´t care for it...

I love perfumes, but have always leaned toward light, citrusy fragrances. I never liked sweet or floral perfumes. My winter scent became Givenchy Pi (which smelled like a woodsy baby powder on me)...

While I wouldn't buy this product (because I have the perfume which lasts forever) I think it is a true classic. Some find it smells like an old lady. To me it smells of class and sophistication. I...
