About this fragrance
Written from the structured record above — note pyramid, accord weights, perfumer credit and era.
Chanel No. 5 Parfum (1921) is the archetypal floral aldehyde, a composition that opens with a sparkling burst of aldehydes, bergamot, lemon, neroli, and ylang-ylang. The heart reveals a bouquet of iris, jasmine, rose, orris root, and lily-of-the-valley, while the base grounds the fragrance with civet, musk, sandalwood, amber, moss, vanilla, vetiver, and patchouli. This parfum concentration offers a rich, powdery, and woody depth, with iris and white floral accords dominating. Collectors appreciate its historical significance and the way vintage formulations showcase the aldehydes and animalic base with greater complexity. It suits those who favor classic, elegant perfumes with a bold, powdery signature, and is ideal for evening wear or special occasions. The parfum is best applied sparingly, as its sillage and longevity are substantial.
