DESCRIPTION

N°5 The Starry Body Oil is a shimmering oil that illuminates the skin and accentuates the trail of the N°5 fragrance.
Its radically simple glass bottle reveals the shimmer of golden pearly particles. Its voluptuous formula offers skin the softness of a satin veil and the sensual signature of N°5. A generously sized limited-edition release.

COMPOSITION

N°5 The Starry Body Oil spreads the sensual, abstract floral bouquet of N°5 all across the skin. This rich body oil leaves the skin delicately scented and feeling comfortable.

INSPIRATION

In 1921, Gabrielle Chanel called upon Ernest Beaux to create a "woman's perfume with a woman's scent", an avant-garde fragrance. The Perfumer-Creator presented her with a visionary composition that made unprecedented use of aldehydes. Mademoiselle Chanel chose the fifth sample she was shown and decided to simply name it N°5. For this new fragrance, she opted for a bottle with a revolutionary design, adorned with a white label and topped with a faceted stopper.

In 1986, Jacques Polge, the Perfumer-Creator for CHANEL at the time, reinterpreted his predecessor's composition to create a more ambery version of N°5: the eau de parfum.

ART OF PERFUMING

Gently apply N°5 The Starry Body Oil to the body to provide it with lasting moisturisation and to amplify the trail of the fragrance. Its enveloping formula lights up the skin with a shimmery golden glow.
