Chanel No. 5.........so I was sitting next to this redhead at a bar in SD CA USA............

last night about 9:30 pm.

She was with her gayfriends and I sat next to her.

I ordered two Pacifico beers, it was two for one night, and got started on downing them.

I noticed a nice scent, I asked her what she was wearing, she said Chanel No. 5.

I complimented her and started talking to her about various things.

As time went on I noticed I got sort of a queezy feeling.
I had never been close to someone for so long who was wearing No. 5, funny, I loved the scent but only for a short period.

I guess No. 5 for me is nice, as long as you keep on moving along, other than that, it sorta gets to me.

Any thoughts on No. 5 out there? Being new I have yet to review a female scent, I might give this baby a thumbs.......middle?

Try the vintage (40s -50s) No.5. It's less sparkly but just as appealing IMO...

...with a depth of muskiness that eludes the current version

Maybe it was the edp. It's pretty potent so would be easy to overdo. Or maybe it was the beer, as has been suggested.

I'm with Lilybelle- the EDP is very potent -lots of ylang ylang.

Maybe Chanel No. 22 goes better with beer.

Thank you all for input, the Pacifico is not my usual by the way.
