#9 Chanel No. 5 has received rave reviews as the world’s most legendary fragrance ever since its introduction in 1921 by Gabrielle "Coco" Chanel. You will be amazed to know that this company sells a bottle of this perfume approximately in every 55 seconds.
Chanel No. 5 perfume is available in a range of different flavors, including jasmine, sandalwood, May rose, vanilla and vetiver. Initially you could get this perfume in three varieties: Eau de Cologne, Eau de Toilette and Pure Perfume. However, now the Eau de Cologne has been withdrawn and in its place, an Eau de Parfum is available. The bottom-line of No. 5 perfume is to highlight the natural beauty of a woman by the virtue of contrast.

Laboratory studies have shown that the composition of No. 5 perfume is based upon the magic of perinea-gland secretion of civet cats. This adhesive material helps you wear the perfume for long without resorting to heavy amounts of application. Since this has drawn the ire of animal right activists, Chanel has reportedly replaced this organic element with a synthetic substitute. Ylang ylang and neroli are the other composing materials for this perfume apart from flower aldehyde.
If you wonder why this famous perfume has a digital name, well, it came in a series of 6 perfumes prepared by perfumer Ernest Beaux at Chanel’s request. These were named according to their series numbers: No. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6. Chanel chose No. 5 and as they say, the rest is history. The sales of this perfume skyrocketed rapidly after being endorsed by Marilyn Monroe. Other stars who became its spokespersons were Nicole Kidman, Carole Bouquet and Catherine Deneuve.
