Founded in 1910, Chanel was not only a pioneer of the fashion revolution, but also a miracle of the world of perfumery. In 1921, when Coco Chanel chose No. 5 from a batch of samples provided by perfumer Ernest Beaux, she did not expect the fragrance to become an epoch-making classic – Vogue claimed that Chanel sold a bottle of N°5 every 30 seconds, and Marilyn Monroe said that "I only wear Chanel N°5 to sleep".
N°5 has been successful for its pioneering nature and enjoys a high level of appeal in several markets around the world. Ernest Beaux revolutionized the use of excessive aldehydes in this fragrance, which has since sparked an aldehyde craze in the world of perfumery. Nowadays, aldehyde perfume is no longer popular, but N°5 is still a classic that is difficult to subvert, Chanel later created several versions for it, such as Eau de Toilette, Eau de Parfum, No. 5 Aqua, No. 5 Understated Luxury, if it is just for daily use, it is recommended to buy the Eau de Toilette version, if you plan to buy the original version, you must look for the Parfume version.
There are always people who think that Chanel has a strong street scent, because almost every fragrance it launches can become a hit, such as Chance Encounter. This is a CHANEL fragrance collection for young women, which is now available in four fragrances: Chance Encounter (Yellow), Chance Eau Fraiche Encounter Fresh (Green), Chance Eau Tendre Encounter Tenderness (Pink), and Chance Eau Vive Encounter Vitality (Orange). If you prefer a fresh and lively style, Green Encounter is worth recommending, with a gentle floral fragrance and a refreshing lemon fragrance dotted within, suitable for girls aged 18-25.
In order to change the current situation of unpopularity, and to seize the rising salon fragrance market, in 2007, Chanel launched the brand's high-end fragrance line, the Les Exclusifs collection. This series of perfumes is expensive, only 75mL and 200mL specifications, and the prices are 1590 yuan and 2950 yuan respectively; Prepared with precious raw materials, the flavor is of excellent quality. On top of that, the collection reproduces many of the last century's old fragrances that have long been discontinued, such as N°22, 1932, Island Forest, etc., and most of them have been recreated by two top perfumers, Jacques Polge and Christopher Sheldrake, and have been highly praised by authoritative fragrance critics such as Luca Turin.
Bleu de Chanel's blue commercial success is obvious to all, it is Chanel's most successful men's fragrance, and it is also the most scolded men's fragrance, especially in the perfume circle, and veteran players think it is clumsy and vulgar, and it is discarded like a piece of paper. From the perspective of ordinary consumers, we think that Azure is a masculine fragrance with a high degree of completion, fresh, slightly spicy woody Fuqi notes, and a bold and free character. When the blue is first sprayed, it is more nasal flushing, and the diffusion and fragrance retention ability is very strong, it is not recommended to spray too much at a time, otherwise it may be too rich and affect others.
In contrast to Azure, Pour Monsieur is a men's fragrance that has been well received in the circle, and is even regarded as the epitome of men's fragrance. Born in 1955 by CHANEL's exclusive perfumer, Henri Robert, the gentleman is a fresh yet calm blend of Chanel's signature chypre notes. It's a pity that this gentleman has been removed from Chanel's domestic official website, and can only seek to buy it on behalf of others, or buy it abroad.
