Т е к с т 8. Essence of Time

(2.000)

Ever the sorceress of style, she chose haunting scenes from all over the world – jasmine and lush pink May roses from the Medieval Provencal Town of Grasse, creamy-yellow ylang-ylang blossoms from the Comoro Islands off the east coast of Africa, rum-scented tonka beans from South America, vanilla and sandalwood, and a rich mélange of other ingredients – and blended them into a sensuous fragrance that instantly captivated le tous Paris.

Created at the dawn of the Roaring 20s, Chanel No.5 was as modern a perfume as Coco Chanel’s revolutionary clothes were harbingers of a new era in fashion for sexy, emancipated women. Launched 1921, Chanel No.5 is the best-selling scent in the world as well as the groundbreaking icon of design; its sleek, androgynous packaging was exhibited at New York’s Museum of Modern Art and immortalized in a series of silk screens by Andy Warhol.

But now the House of Chanel has recalibrated its classic fragrance in a new product called No.5 Eau Premiere. Retaining the essential character of the original while refreshing its appeal was a job for Chanel’s venerable master perfumer, Jacques Polge, known in the rarefied world of scent as the Nose.

“We needed to re-interpret Chanel No.5 for the modern era,” says Christopher Sheldrake, Poldge’s deputy, or – as he puts it – the second nose of Chanel.

The result of their alchemy is a youthful fragrance whose effect is brightened by the orange-flower-oil neroli and Damascene roses from Turkey and Bulgaria, which have a fresher, greener aroma than the honeyed May roses.

“No.5 can be like one’s mother’s fragrance, and Eau Premiere is certainly younger,” Sheldrake explains. “No.5 can also be an evening fragrance, but Eau Premiere is a fragrance you can wear all day long”.

But some things don’t change. “A woman looks for mystery in a fragrance,” Sheldrake says.

A journalist once asked Merylin Monroe, what she wore to bed, and she cooed, “Just a few drops of No.5”. It’s the ineffable je ne sais quoi of Chanel No.5 that has ensured its timeless appeal, and a truly beguiling mystery never grows old.
