It is always amazing to see a really old bottle which was frozen in time, finally getting to breath as well as seeing how different it smells from current versions. Thank you for sharing this experience with us 😊👍
Dacob, your reviews are the best. My mother wore Chanel No 5, and she always smelled divine. I still remember what the perfume smelled like in the 70s. The current formulation is nothing like what is currently sold.
What does auspicious mean? This... This is what it means ❤️ To a vintage frangrance collector like myself this is unadulterated perfume porn!! Thank you so so much for including us in this amazing moment! A dear friend of mine turned 100 this year and I gifted her my 15ml. '70s CHANEL No 5.....
It really IS special. The modern formulation does not compare. Although they do keep as close to the original as possible (as they can with the current bans), the new formulation does not have the depth or roundness of the vintage! The amber & civet is unreal gorgeous! (16:38)
I’ve smelled both modern and vintage and I have to agree. The modern is more light, clean and powdery. The vintage has those qualities but you smell more of the amber, the civet the vanilla and the smokiness that helps balance out the powdery aldehydes. The vintage is more sexy and more universal where the modern smells more conservative. The vintage is like a woman in her prime, she’s confident and elegant but she has great sex appeal to her, not slutty or vulgar, but sexy in a classy way. Think of Gia Carangi in her prime in elegant Chanel clothing, completely covered and looking classy, but with that sex appeal.
It will change and morph and slowly decay as I use it up... just like all things in nature do... death it a poetic part of perfumes and we should embrace it and enjoy it as it is a part of life
I’m glad that Chanel no longer use civet, not all is bad in the evolution of Chanel No5. Nevertheless, I would still love to smell this, it’s a piece of history. It’s so close to the bottle in the famous Marilyn Monroe photograph.
If you are referring to the photo of her applying it in the mirror,she is actually using the eau de cologne version,but I believe the bottle by her bedside in many other photos was Parfum
@@josephthomas2786 No doubt. I think I was just making an association in my mind to fully appreciate the age of this Parfum as it’s not far from that era. Crazy to think this is parfum and it looks the size of a cologne bottle.😀
Correct Joseph. Mirror is EDC, bedside was Parfum. She had the parfum in the later 50's version with the flatter stopper. This one here is the 60's version with the thicker stopper but no "parfum" inscription on the bottle sticker.
What Chanel did to the Centenary of N•5 is beyod disaster. A simple film will do. But nah, they kept it cheap and tacky. Always for profit, since when did L'EAU represent N•5. They could've made a single bottle or 5 bottles of Chanel N•5 extrait de parfum in its original formulation and presentation, not caring to IFRA, and upholding the heritage of N•5. This bottle is not meant to be sold at all but to travel the globe and have it smelled by millions of fans. THIS IS N•5.
I was there, a rare treat
It was the 100th birthday day of N°5! It truly was a treat! What a year this has been!
@@essence-tiallydacob9611 a great year for scent

Dacob, where DID YOU FIND THIS GEM? Omg, your collection is priceless.

Its less heavy n today’s formula but I still love all iterations of the extrait 🥰🥰🥰🌅
@@essence-tiallydacob9611 100% agree
Ohhhhhhh wowwww my love! ✨🖤✨😘😘😘Sandy
So, this bottle was released during Coco Chanel's life?... so sick! ❤
yep

The newer version is a tad bit conservative but in a groundbreaking way in my opinion. I adore it.
Wonderful
Thank you Gustavo
Hi Dakob, will that strength stay now the seal has been broken?
It will change and morph and slowly decay as I use it up... just like all things in nature do... death it a poetic part of perfumes and we should embrace it and enjoy it as it is a part of life
I was wondering the same thing how long will it last after you open it ?
Hmm Yes Dacob! A Yin-Yang. (20:10)

Whyyyyy does everyone bow down before IFRA? Why have we allowed them to ruin masterpieces for no reason,?!
Good question. It irritates me too
Hey first view and comment
It's said that Dakob paid over £10.000 for this No. 5 parfum.😀
Hahhaha. Noooooo
@@essence-tiallydacob9611 where did you actually find this precious bottle! ??
