Description:
I'd be lost without Coco Chanel's Chanel No 5 --Merci!
"in Cannes late in the summer of 1920, (Russian perfumer Ernest) Beaux presented his works to Mlle. Chanel. Chanel chose the No. 5 as a Christmas present for her best clients. When Ernest Beaux asked her how she wanted to name that scent, she replied: "I always launch my collection on the 5th day of the 5th months, so the number 5 seems to bring me luck – therefore, I will name it Nº 5""
