My very first perfume was my mother's bottle of Chanel No. 5. It is an absolute classic. If you like musk and powdery sophistication in a perfume, then you must smell Chanel. Since its introduction in 1921, mothers have been passing these bottles down to their daughters. Or perhaps more accurately, daughters have been sneaking dabs and whiffs from their mothers' vanity dressers, filled with imagination of what it's like to be a grown woman. Notes are evenly balanced and include Ylang-Ylang from the Comoros, Neroli (Seville Orange Blossom) from Grasse, exclusive Aldehydes, Grasse Jasmine, May Rose, Sandal from Mysore, Vetiver from Reunion, and Bourbon Vanilla. Want an example of what kind of woman wears Chanel No. 5? Marilyn Monroe was a fan. Chanel's entire line of perfume can be depended upon for classic and sophisticated scents. Some have even become rare collector's items.
