I can not now decide what I want to buy perfume. I think buying it, but want to know some opinions. It's the smell of Nice? Does it last all day? Do other people like the smell? Do you like it? Thank you!
Hi,
Chanel No. 5 perfume is very popular. My mother has been wearing it for many years.
Personally, I will not wear it, as I found quite a heavy perfume.
It lasts all day.
Personally, I prefer Musky, fruity fragrance. My favorite is Dolce and Gabbana-light blue.

The scent of a woman

First, the House of Chanel was not built on the foundation garments Coco - for many years in the middle, there was no way at all Chanel. It was built on a unique flavor: No. 5. And secondly, Coco did not create the scent and did not even own the rights to most of his life.
What is true is that Coco had a colorful youth (such as movies tell us) and it was a successful designer with a shop catering to wealthy women on the Rue Cambon in Paris. In 1919, designers (there was no ready-made at that time) were launching their own perfume.The trend has been created by Paul Poiret, who launched a line called Parfums de Rosine in 1911. And fragrance houses such as Bourjois (Evening in Paris which was great in India until the late seventies) and Coty fragrances sold and billions.
Sensing the gap in the market, Coco commissioned Ernest Beaux, perfumer to the top of this age, the design of a perfume for her.
Coco Before Chanel: Interview With Audrey Tautou | M.I.S.S.
by GDK
When you are a rebel, you suffer. You fight, you’re determined, but you suffer because you don’t know if you are going to succeed…. it’s so much easier to accept the ruse. It’s that violence that isolated [Coco Chanel] and this is what I tried to keep everyday of the shooting, even if I was not expressing it in a scene, I really thought this mix of strength and vulnerability was very important.
. The resemblance is striking and the two women even shared an interest in the androgynous look, Audrey mused, “[Chanel] created the masculine/feminine [look] and I think that’s something that I share with her because I’m not girly girly.”
However, the two women are also very different. Gabrielle “Coco” Chanel was known for being ahead of her time and Audrey says of herself, “I’m not modern at all, I’m a bit more savage, I don’t like the Parisian show business, it’s not my cup of tee.” It may not be her cup of tee, but it’s a craft that Audrey Tautou does exceedingly well. I had the chance to sit down with Mlle. Tautou with a group of journalists to ask her about her role as Coco Chanel. What follows below is an excerpt from the interview.
How Did You Get This Role? How Did It Come To You?
It come to me because Anne [Fontaine , the director] met me to propose me the part but without having written anything and without even knowing if she would find in Chanel’s life a moment interesting enough… to make a movie not a movie about clothes or fashion, but to make a real movie….I really like her….movies, they’re very clever.. so I thought…she was the right person to do something about Chanel.
I was not familiar, in fact I realized very quickly that I didn’t know that much and that my idea of her was kind of false. I knew the icon she was and…that she had created a new style and how elegant, strong and…authoritative she was but…I thought she was coming from the high bourgeoise and that everything had been easy. So, I was surprised to realize where she came from and in fact her vocation was not something that she was born with but it was more the elements and her unpredictable talent and the meetings with Boy Capel that put her on this road. It’s very surprising when you think of the empire she created and…how she influenced women’s fashion, it’s amazing.
In spite of the massive market and increasing celebrity presence in fragrances, Chanel No. 5 has stood the test of time and become a legendary icon in the industry. Christian Dior once said that "a woman's perfume tells more about her than her

On a personal note, I stopped wearing perfume when I gave birth to my first child 11 years ago. It just didn't feel right when my infant smelled like Chanel No. 5. I may no longer smell like jasmine or spice, but I'm a lot safer.

Chanel No. 5
I bought these for different people in my family, but the shop was going to gift-wrap them all for me so I took a quick photo to remember which perfume was in which size of box... so I can give the right present to the right person...
Found my mom's wedding earrings, engagement ring, and some classy Chanel parfum
