Nº 5
Chanel's Nº 5 Parfum Cheveux brings the house's best-known fragrance into a format made for the hair. Rather than sitting on the skin, it is designed to be worn in the hair, where it leaves a refined trail that moves with you through the day.
The character opens bright and sparkling, with an aldehydic brilliance lifted by citrus and fresh notes. As it settles, a soft white floral heart emerges, with jasmine at its centre, alongside a powdery, musky warmth and a dry woody finish. It reads as composed and polished rather than loud.
Sillage and longevity are both moderate. It tends to stay close to the hair and wear through the day without overwhelming those nearby. It suits daytime and evening alike, from professional settings to a night out, and is worn across all four seasons. The overall effect is classic and self-assured rather than trend-led.
Presented as a 35ml parfum for the hair by Chanel.
