Really worth checking out. Very nice videos and images from throughout the history of Chanel. Available in quite a few languages, too.

You may have to turn your ad-blockers off for the rather complex web stuff to work.

I know - that was my first reaction - time to break out the no.5! I haven't yet - still in shock from the lovely samples a friend sent me.

Thanks for the link Red.

You're most welcome, hednic!

Yes - absolutely. It's not like I need a quilted purse, but I'm about ready to see if my wife wants one. Hopefully I'll get over that VERY SOON!

Actually, I thought the astronomy-inspired diamonds in the old newsreel are *still* fabulous. Coco really had it.

Oh great! Thanks Redneck!

I was truly hoping you'd enjoy this, cello!

Just another email from Chanel - almost glossed over it, and decided to click the link - really glad I did!

Thanks Red. That's a great clip. Don't understand why the video had not been released until now because I think MM's " I wear Chanel No. 5 to bed" is iconic. Nuff said

I love the number 5. Thanks for the link. Love it in different languages, I can show my mom.

I'll be honest - and keep this to ourselves, fellow Chanelophiles. I just realized that the 100-year anniversary of no.5 will be in roughly 7 years. Do not think for a moment that there won't be a momentous build-up. It would not surprise me one bit if they have even bigger and better stuff in the works.

BTW - oddball fact I just picked up on Wikipedia - Chanel donated an original formula bottle of no.5 to the Osmothèque, via Jacques Polge!

You're very welcome, and welcome to Basenotes, Jenny!

I'm a huge fan of no.5 Eau Première - I think that's actually just as remarkable as no.5, and a truly worthy addition to the line. Jacques Polge is brilliant, but the fact that they now have on board Olivier Polge - I have to say it in French - fantastique et merveilleux!

Great article here. Nice quotes from Polge, too!
