Description of the composition

The pyramid of Chanel No. 5 begins with sparkling aldehydes, which create a champagne effect, complemented by citrus accents of bergamot and lemon, as well as floral notes of neroli and ylang-ylang.

At the heart of the composition, a rich bouquet unfolds with iris, jasmine, lily of the valley, and rose, imparting tenderness and depth to the fragrance.

The base is anchored with warm and sensual chords: amber, civet, oakmoss, patchouli, vanilla, vetiver, and musk, creating a long-lasting and cozy finish.

This complex structure makes Chanel No. 5 a multifaceted and eternally relevant fragrance, where each note plays its role in a harmonious ensemble, belonging to the aldehyde and floral families.
